Coastal property on the south part of the Maliakos Bay, in the center of the Kamena Vourla town, one of the most famous thermal spring centers since the 1930s. The coastal front of the property (northern boundary) consists of a sandy beach with a length of approximately 520 m, whereas the south boundary extends to the pine-tree covered sides of Mounts Knimis, part of the Kallidromos Mountain range. Inside the property there is a luxury 5-star unit in operation , with a Wellness center & SPA and hydrotherapy units supplied by Thermal Springs, for which recognition processes are under way.
