The investment by the Municipality of Preveza for the development of a five-star hotel on municipal land in the 'Poros – Diavati' area of Kanali, Preveza, has been designated as a strategic investment.

A strategic tourism development project with a total investment of €60 million is planned for the Monolithi–Kanali area in Preveza. The project entails the creation of a high-end, mixed-use hospitality complex, including:

A five-star hotel with a capacity of 220 beds

A state-of-the-art conference center

Twelve (12) independent luxury villas of various sizes, each featuring private outdoor areas and swimming pools, accommodating a total of 84 beds

A Thalassotherapy, Wellness, and Rejuvenation Center

Seafront restaurants and retail outlets showcasing local products

A dedicated events and business center

Additionally, the southern section of the development site will feature:

Thirty (30) glamping units with a total capacity of 60 beds

Fifteen (15) bungalows, also providing 60 beds

The project’s total buildable area is approximately 20,000 square meters, with a building coefficient of 0.1.

The initiative to utilize the land dates back to 2021, when the Municipality of Preveza entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Enterprise Greece. Under this agreement, Enterprise Greece has undertaken the investment promotion and permitting maturation of the project, under the working title:

“Long Beach Preveza – 5-Star Hotel in Monolithi, Preveza.”

The aim is to include the project in the Interministerial Committee for Strategic Investments, securing its designation as a Strategic Investment.
