Hotel Estia is owned and operated by Glen Milliken and Stavroula Gallos. Originally from Toronto, Canada, Stavroula grew up spending summers in Finikounda (her father having grown up nearby); Glen first visited the area on the couple's honeymoon. Since 2003 they have made Finikounda their home and welcome the opportunity to share their love of the area with guests.
Naturally curious, they have explored most of the local area, including off-the-path little dirt tracks and have found some interesting places that even most guide books don't mention, such as unexcavated catacombs, caves and hidden beaches. Having visited various sites in the Peloponnese, they love to answer people's questions, or suggest places for sightseeing and exploration.
In addition to managing the hotel, Stavroula & Glen tend over 1000 olive trees on the family's olive groves. Our fresh, organic olive oil is also available for purchase.
