Radisson Hotel Group announces the opening of Paradise Resort Evia, a member of Radisson Individuals, a 322-room beachfront resort in Eretria on the island of Evia, Greece. The resort marks the brand’s first resort in Greece and strengthens Radisson Hotel Group’s growing presence across Mediterranean leisure destinations. Located under two hours from Athens by road, the resort combines direct Aegean beachfront access, extensive wellness and sports facilities, five dining and bar venues, and flexible meetings and events spaces in one of Greece’s most accessible island destinations.
The opening comes as Evia gains visibility among international travelers seeking a more authentic Greek island experience beyond the country’s traditional tourism hotspots. As demand grows for destinations that combine nature, culture, accessibility, and lower-density travel experiences, Evia has emerged as one of Greece’s most compelling alternatives, offering mountain villages, thermal springs, ancient archaeological sites, and expansive coastline within easy reach of Athens.
“Evia is one of Greece’s most compelling emerging resort destinations, offering the authenticity, accessibility, and natural beauty that today’s travelers are increasingly seeking,” said Joep Peeters, Chief Operating Officer Franchise EMEA, Radisson Hotel Group. “We are delighted to welcome Paradise Resort Evia into the Radisson Individuals portfolio as the brand’s first resort in Greece. The opening reflects our continued focus on expanding in high-potential Mediterranean leisure destinations and introducing guests to places with a strong sense of identity and discovery.”

Dining & Social Spaces
Five dining and bar venues create a social and culinary experience centered around Mediterranean hospitality and Greek gathering culture. The resort’s main restaurant serves Mediterranean and international cuisine throughout the day, while El Greco Restaurant offers an à la carte dining experience in a more intimate setting.
At the heart of the social offering is Ouzeri Bar, inspired by the traditional Greek ouzerie, where local spirits and mezedes are served in a relaxed, convivial atmosphere. Additional venues include an all-day pool bar for cocktails and snacks, alongside a lobby bar designed for evening drinks and informal gatherings.

Its beachfront setting, resort infrastructure, and proximity to Athens position Paradise Resort Evia as a distinctive alternative to conventional conference and incentive destinations in Greece.
