PELOPONNESE: The birthplace of the Olympic Games!
General
The region of Ilia is criss-crossed by roads, each one leading to something interesting: an ancient temple, a Byzantine monastery, a Frankish castle, a splendid mountain, an endless, sandy beach or equally to the unique Aldemar Olympian Village hotel.
Ilia is situated in the western part of the Peloponnese and is famous for its important archaeological findings, above all the site of Ancient Olympia. In addition, scattered mountain villages each one splendid with unique legends and traditions, are to be found everywhere. With its endless fields and fertile soil, it is as if the land has been blessed by an ancient spirit. Every piece of land has been cultivated with vineyards, olive groves, orange trees, etc. And when it comes to the sea…its coastlines boast kilometres of fine white sand blend with clear, azure waters.
