Throughout the history of Greece, there is a long and storied tradition of hospitality. From the Iliad to the Odyssey, the concept of hospitality is an enduring one. Filoxenia, the Greek word for hospitality, emphasizes the importance of friendship, food, and libations. At Nerai, you will find a contemporary take on this age-old tradition of filoxenia.
