HEART & SOUL OF AFYTOS
History of Petrino
It was the year 1996 when Ignatius and Kalliopi Varsakeli first set eyes on this unspoiled land full of greenery. At that time, the area of Afitos was not known to many tourists. Ignatios and Kalliopi were hoping to build a place that praised Greek hospitality and simultaneously highlighted the beauty of a traditional Greek village.
Petrino Suites Hotel was then born.
The hotel was carefully constructed with respect for the environment and with fundamental materials, such as stone and wood.  Surrounded by lovely organic gardens with olive trees, fruit trees, and roses, the carefully designed stone pathways make you feel like you have been teleported to a small, picturesque village.
Nowadays, the proprietors and managers of Petrino Suites Hotel, Evdokia & Eleni, are still refining what Greek hospitality means to them.
Having started as a family business, they are committed to treating and welcoming every guest as a member of their family, hoping to offer the most memorable holidays in Greece.
In 2023, Petrino Suites Hotel grew into Petrino Eco-Village.
Embracing a new philosophy focused on sustainability and harmonious living, Petrino Eco-Village follows the rhythm of today. With this in mind, we have taken steps to reduce our environmental footprint, including waste reduction initiatives and organic gardens.Â
But Petrino Eco-Village is not only about sustainability, but also about creating unforgettable experiences for families and couples.Â
Enjoy our open-air cinema under the stars, weekly yoga sessions in the heart of nature, encounters with animals in our petting zoo and farm-to-table dining with locally sources ingredients.Â

Eco Village
The facilities are in an area of 30 acres and accommodate 34 rooms. The stone-built houses, which reflect the traditional architectural style, are in harmony with nature. We continue to take care of the environment and the local community that has supported its efforts over the years. When it comes to the traditional menu, the hotel chooses only organic products from local producers and uses fresh ingredients from our Organic Garden, which helps the region grow and thrive.
We also understand how important it is to be mindful of the environment. That’s why we have carefully designed our packaging to have the least possible impact on the environment. We use paper delivery bags certified by FSC, along with natural and compostable food containers and cutlery. We aim to create less waste and promote sustainable practices.
We are also passionate about recycling and encourage the return of glass jars.Â
