Odyssey Eco Farm Glamping

The Odyssey Eco Farm Glamping...

is an Eco Nature friendly way of holiday making where the full experience of lodging, cooking, eating and outdoor activities are all part of the stay-over.You may call it glamorous camping or you may call it luxurious camping. We prefer to call it nature friendly - holiday making.

At Odyssey we underwrite the importance of protecting the environment and sustainable development in tourism, as well as the personal responsibility that each of us has towards the environment.

We offer a way of holiday-making that is targeting the experience of living near and with nature. An adventure that will broaden horizons and will create a deeper engagement with the local nature and surroundings. That is an environment considerate experience that focuses on sustainability and social consciousness, the ideal for a green traveler.

A traveler that cares deeply for the environment and adopts green habits such as eating local grown food while learning more of the local ecosystems, reduces the single use of plastic while at the same time following local traditions and culture and meeting locals . How can you combine all that and enjoy a carefree holiday at the same time?

Sleeping under the stars in comfort...

Our Odyssey eco Glamping is not a traditional camping, also it is not really glamorous. Our Odyssey Eco Glamping is tastefully decorated with respect to nature and Greek traditions (greek farmhouse style). As close to nature as one can get in Greece. Sleeping under and in the shadow of olive,lemon and orange trees while listening to the sound of nature, The song of the waves lapping on the shore and the everpresent crickets are completing the feeling of being in Greece.

Next to olive, lemon and orange trees, there are pomegranates, walnut and almond trees and a lot of other type of trees that grow locally. We have a few chickens and a vegetable garden that is big enough to give us fresh vegetables throughout the year. Our outdoor kitchen has become the perfect place for cooking with our friends, and to host cooking classes with the freshly picked vegetables from our garden. The outdoor kitchen also comes with a traditional oven and a nice BBQ where we all gather and learn unique greek words like “kefi”.

All the agricultural experiences we love to share with our guests, like making marmalades from oranges and lemons straight from the tree, we organize weeks picking of olives, pomegranates and grapes.

Love for nature, respect for tradition and organic farming being the essence of what we want to share with our friends and guests.

At Odyssey our aim is that our guests are not going back home from their holiday with just some nice pictures. We love to create feelings with our guests. Feelings and memories that they can take back home and keep them in their hearts and minds forever and please bear in mind that we love a good laugh and we love teasing in our family and our guests are family!

Our goal for the coming years is to make Odyssey 100% environmentally friendly, meet more people from all around the world, cook more, share more activities,laughs,teasings and feelings with our family guests and we are working every day towards that goal as we are not satisfied for less than the best in the Odyssey of our life.

At Odyssey Eco Glamping, we embrace the timeless principles of Xenia, the ancient Greek concept of hospitality, in all our daily operations. Here’s how we apply it:

1. Warm Welcome

From the moment guests arrive at our eco-friendly glamping site, we ensure they feel like part of our family. We greet each guest with a warm, genuine smile and offer a personalized welcome, honoring the ancient Greek practice of offering food and drink to travelers. Whether it’s a refreshing drink, a small local treat, or a warm conversation, we make sure every guest feels seen and valued.

2. Respect and Care

We treat every guest with the utmost respect, just as the concept of Xenia dictates. This involves attentiveness to their needs and desires, making sure their stay is as comfortable as possible. Whether they need extra blankets, advice on local hikes, or simply a friendly chat, we are always available and eager to provide.

3. Privacy and Space

While we go the extra mile to provide a welcoming atmosphere, we also understand the importance of privacy in hospitality. In true Xenia fashion, we balance warmth and intimacy with respect for personal space, giving guests the freedom to enjoy nature without unnecessary intrusion.

4. Local Experience

Just like the Greeks would share their land’s finest produce with visitors, we celebrate the beauty of our surroundings. We incorporate local, homegrown and sustainable ingredients into our meals and promote eco-friendly activities that allow our guests to experience the natural world authentically. Whether it's a guided nature walk, local art workshops, or a farm-to-table meal, we invite our guests to connect with the culture and environment around them.

5. Protection and Safety

Xenia emphasizes that the host must protect the guest, and we take this seriously. We ensure that our glamping site is safe and secure, providing peace of mind for our visitors. From well-maintained accommodations to clear safety instructions for outdoor adventures, we are committed to the well-being of our guests at all times.

6. Sustainability and Environmental Care

In keeping with Xenia, which honors the earth, we practice sustainable living. We ensure that our operations and guest experiences are eco-conscious. From composting and reducing waste to using renewable energy sources, every action we take is aligned with a respect for nature and a responsibility to the future.

7. Farewell with Gratitude

Just as the ancient Greeks would send off their guests with gifts or kind words, we ensure each departure is as special as the arrival. We express our sincere gratitude for their visit and hope that they leave with fond memories of the unique, welcoming experience at Odyssey Eco Glamping. Sometimes, guests leave with a small memento or parting gift that reflects our appreciation of their time with us.

At Odyssey Eco Glamping, every day is a celebration of Xenia. We are not just hosting guests; we are forging genuine connections, honoring the principles of hospitality, and ensuring that each visitor experiences the warmth and beauty that the Greek tradition of Xenia represents.
