Patmos Aktis Suites & Spa welcomes its guests once again this season! Patmos Aktis  Suites & Spa remains true to its mission to offer a unique stay to its guests. For the first time this year, the Hotel organized an environmental initiative to enhance sustainable development in the local community; the initiative involved the cleanup of the seashore and the underwater sea floor at the beautiful beach of Grikos bay in Patmos. The Patmos Aktis Suites & Spa initiative took place in mid-May in collaboration with the non-profit organization ‘All For Blue’ and the Coast Guard of Patmos. The staff of  Patmos Aktis Suites & Spa, the divers of ‘Azzurro Diving’ and the amazing ‘All For Blue’ team, cleaned up the beachfront and the bottom of the sea - removing large quantities of cables, wires, plastic bottles, nets, bags and many other small and large items; Patmos’ Coast Guard has supervised the whole activity. A big thank you to all participants for this wonderful and important initiative! We always try to keep the beach clean and respect the environment, to offer relaxing holidays and refreshing dives in the beautiful sea of Patmos Aktis Suites & Spa at Grikos bay in Patmos.

The eighth, three-month (April – June 2019) e-Magazine «The Diviner», owned by Divine Hotels Group is published! Τhis eighth issue has a particular «spring freshness» but not due to season. The e-Magazine grew bigger, just like our curiosity for our homeland. Three new columns were added: «patron», «molyvi», «homa». The name of each column derives from Greek words and explains its thematic content, respectively (fashion, design, environment). The following of the e-Magazine’s columns were renamed: «fakos» (former reportage), «posperi» (former interview), «soma» (former euphoria). Two columns «ntomataki» (recipe) and «meraki» (local producers / products), remain intact. In this issue’s column «ntomataki», you will find a recipe for traditional cheese pies made in Kos. In «meraki», you will discover Ariston, one of the very few local old-school café – patisseries on Kos Island. Column «posperi» will introduce you to an almost self-taught photographer and «fakos», to the cultural center Hippocratic Garden – Ancient House. In the renamed column «soma», we provide you with useful tips suitable for the beginning of summer and the new column «patron» offers you a chance to find out more about the traditional loom. Finally, in brand new columns «molyvi» & «homa», we closely observed the Archaeological Museum of Kos and highlighted the power of volunteering, through the example of the national campaign «Let’s Do It Greece».
