Central Macedonia Hotel Guide - 4 star hotels in Halkidiki, Central Macedonia

An ideal retreat for a relaxed and a peaceful holiday. Really laid back atmosphere with exquisitely beautiful location. Well maintained hotel premises. Beautiful beach with 3 bars. Good facilities and amenities. Totally enjoyed my holiday and would recommend to everyone. 100% value for money and more...Also good recreational activities all along the day.... Abt 2 hrs from Thessaloniki airport - a taxi & bus combo (taxi from airport to KTEL bus stand & from there bus to Kalithea) would cost 15 Euros per person.

This was a family get-away. The hotel was average at best. The property has a chance to really shine but the bare minimum is done to accommodate guests (i.e. the grounds and views of the sea are amazing/however only appx 6 chairs for the entire pool deck on a higher level and the beach way down (only accessible by a steep path or a small "lift")..... Not clear what needs to be done to "reserve" a beach umbrella (you actually need to pay for this at the front desk which is all the way at the top of the resort. This makes no sense, as we felt someone should be on the beach for this. In addition, the food at the snack bar on the beach is limited and not that good. Plan to make your own lunch or to go out for lunch off property. We did the all inclusive (breakfast was too limited) but dinner was a nice surprise and very good every night. Plan to arrive EARLY as its otherwise close to impossible to get a table without waiting. And if you spot a desert you like, grab it asap (nothing lasts here). Many hotel guests grab up half a platter/wrap it up/take it with them!!!! We had 2 family suites. The rooms were disappointing (old in style). No wi fi, no American tv or satellite.... This is not a 4 star (sorry to say) but if you can get a good price it still might be worth it for its close proximately to Kalithea and Hanioti. For the best nightlife, go to Hanioti!!!

Good food, the sea is trully good, beach not so, rooms are very tiny -- we stayed at superior room -- too tiny and uncomfortable for a family with one child. Beds, especially the sofa bed, are not comfortable. But the rooms are clean, and the overall place is OK. If you expect nice walks on the beach or in the surroundings you'll be disappointed.

Sadly the fabric of the building is starting to show its age. The Beach café is needing knocked down. The Swimming pool is nothing more than a joke. It is less than 5 meters long, and 3 meters wide. It is more like a Jacuzzi. The Beach beds and mattress are 20 years old. The Staff are very pleasant, and work hard at looking after you. They all smile, and try to help. The Hotel position is literally a stone throw from the clear Azure Blue sea. The water is very clear and well suited to snorkelling/diving. The food is split into things they can do well, Salad is 5star, and Soup and Desert are also good. The meat and main course dishes are not up to the same standard. Good, but could be better. The rooms are basic, and do not have Wi fi, and the TV only has limited choice, with poor image quality on most stations. The village is well served with cafes and bars, and the location is next to the main road to the Airport 70mins away. Please note that driving in this part of Greece is not for the faint hearted as the locals pride themselves in tearing up the roads to get there.

The location of the hotel is excellent, with beautiful gardens and an Olympic pool before getting to the sand beach. In pre-season, as we were, the beach was not set up. There were companion hotels right next door, which were supposed to be available to us, but extra charges applied. The staff was very friendly in providing tourist information and driving directions. Overall, this was an excellent value.

Hotel was clean, plenty of amenities even though the spa was not open as too early in the season. Staff were amazing, very polite and could not do enough for us. Pool area was great, beach was fantastic. We had bed and breakfast and had a buffet style meal. This was very good. Room was cleaned every day to excellent standard. Very quiet area and perfect for any holiday.
