If you’re considering buying a holiday home in Greece, the Greek Property Event in Munich offers a focused and informative setting to learn more.

Kalamata is quietly stepping into a new chapter.


In 2026, Kalamata International Airport “Captain Vassilis Constantakopoulos” will connect the Peloponnese to 22 international destinations through 31 direct routes, significantly strengthening the region’s ties with key European markets. For a city long appreciated for its olive groves, relaxed pace, and coastal living, this expanded network signals something bigger: accessibility is no longer a seasonal privilege — it’s becoming a structural advantage.


The announcement follows a record year for inbound traffic. In 2025, the airport welcomed 169,730 international passengers, marking a 25.6 percent increase compared to 2023. This steady rise reflects consistent demand from core European source markets and growing confidence in Kalamata as a destination that delivers both lifestyle and substance.

Retiring in Greece is a dream shared by many. The sunshine helps, of course – but so does the slower pace of life, the everyday simplicity, and the feeling that things matter a little less… in the best way.

Could you see yourself with a place of your own in Greece, close to the coast and the Mediterranean lifestyle? If this idea seems appealing to you, the Second Home Expo in Antwerp is the perfect place to begin your journey.


On 7 and 8 March 2026, Antwerp Expo will once again welcome thousands of visitors, international property professionals, and second-home specialists under one roof. The Elxis team will be attending the fair to support anyone interested in buying real estate in Greece. With more than 100 participations over the years, Elxis remains a trusted and familiar presence at this event, and we're happy to give you the opportunity to visit the Expo for free.


The Second Home Expo is one of Europe’s leading exhibitions for buyers looking to invest in a holiday home, rental property, or a lifestyle destination abroad. With a unique combination of inspiration, expert guidance, and a wide selection of international properties, the expo offers everything you need to take your first step with confidence.

When people think about buying property in Greece, they usually focus on location, views, lifestyle, and price. One factor that often gets overlooked, until it suddenly matters, is air connectivity. 


How easy is it to reach your home? How long does the season last? Can friends, family, or renters get there without complicated travel?
