New Domes Resorts for Summer 2022

24 January 2022

The popular Domes group has launched its newest brand for Summer 2022, ‘Domes Aulūs’, with two new hotel openings. This new sophisticated, laid-back, all-Inclusive resort brand brings understated lifestyle luxury with cool, inspiring concepts and a signature wellness character, all of which come together at the most coveted beachfront destinations to create this vibrant, ‘Cool Inclusive’ concept that's targeted at eco-conscious, unpretentious, lifestyle travellers.

This new brand is a welcome addition to a hotel group that, in 2021, was named the World’s Leading Independent Hotel Group at the World Travel Awards.

Domes Aulūs Zante

The family-friendly Domes Aulūs Zante has a remarkable location within a Natura-protected turtle sanctuary, in the popular destination of Zante and offers 360° views of the Ionian Sea and Zante’s pine forest. Its ‘nests’, ‘cocoons’ and ‘retreats’ sleep up to four, and for toddlers and kids there’s the KiEPOS eco-conscious creche and kids club as well as teen activities (OFSTED standards), while adults get their own tranquil area with an adult-only pool and bar.

Its four signature restaurants serve seasonal Mediterranean, international and creative contemporary cuisine, and Soma Spa is ideal for rejuvenation.
