The Concept of Filoxenia

In Greek, “Φιλοξενία” (filoxenia) combines “φιλώ” (to love) and “ξένος” (stranger), signifying the act of loving and caring for strangers. Historically, Greeks believed in treating guests as sacred, with Zeus himself as the protector of hospitality.

This tradition ensured that travelers found shelter, food, and protection in foreign lands, reinforcing bonds and promoting mutual respect and understanding.

At Methoni Gem, we honor this timeless tradition by offering our guests an experience of unparalleled hospitality.
