5 Star Halkidiki Holidays

Martina Janco

Absolute disappointment. Rooms not meeting 5* standard, dirty beach, no one cleans it from garbage in the sand, no beach raking. Stray dogs come and pee there. All inclusive is a joke - everything comes in plastic cups, low quality. The food is so so, very repetitive, no actual greek cousine. At first you find it good, then just bland. Everything is far away, the taxis are expensive and bus runs 4 times a day. Even the places around are not nice, you wont be able to take a nice evening walk or anything. Oh and the animation program. That must be a joke. So many kids here and no proper entrertainment. Just some guy trying to play songs from youtube which is impossible with the bad wifi. I would not come back even if the hotel paid me. They should really work on so many aspects. Or maybe they just dont care as still so many people come here…

It was an unforgettable long weekend. The meals was delicious The rooms comfortable The effort of the personnel of the hotel covered effectively that the infrastructure of the hotel are dated 40+ year. In any case the outdated infrastructure doesn't bother you even a little Is highly recommended although not in a expected level of a 5* hotel

It was our first time at Alexandros Palace. The food was very good, the rooms were amazing. Pool was clean and the kids had an amazing time in the kid area of the pool. The rooms and property was clean and accommodations were very good. The staff was very friendly. I've been in the hospitality business for 25 years and it was everything we needed. Air conditioning was cold and worked well. All areas of the hotel were very nice and well maintained. Can't wait to come back. 5 stars 🌟

We have been guests at Alexandros palace for 2 weeks as Inc. With Sunweb . The place is situated on a hill with nice view over the sea. The grounds are tidy but there are holes in the cement and cracks here and there. The room was for 4 ppl and it was spacious and well cleaned. The room is old and the ac was smelling a bit. There is nothing that will give you the feeling of a 5 star hotel from the first look. The main problem with this hotel is that is really understaffed. The staff is made by a majoraty of students that are not really introduced to the job they are expected to do and that is mainly during meals. Until now I have never experienced such a chaos. The meals started with some courses but because they run out of food they just bring out whatever they have in the freezer. The most of the food is prefabricated and just put in the oven. You will get the same food every day like pasta with same sauce and the salads as well as the same deserts like jello, ice-cream, mouse , apples, bananas but never got melons, cherry's, despite being the session. The worst part is that they serve fish fingers and nuggets as a meal for adults ,that is so unworthy the greek cuisine and the 5 star logo they proudly were on there shirts. Mashed potato tasted like it was made from pulver and not real potatoes. Most of the food is of low quality and repetitive. As Al Included guest at lunchtime they bring you the drinks but at dinnertime you need to fetch it yourself from a bar faraway from buffet. The dining room/ outside dining space is a total mess. The staff is trying to keep up with the cleaning of the tables . Agapi is the heart of the place .She is working so hard and still have the time to ask you about your day . She is professional and attentive. The information about all inclusive is totally misleading in the add from Sunweb and the hotel. The discrepancy is easily detected when you look at the hotel sites page. There is no all inclusive status . No snacks as pizza, ice-cream etc. Just some white bread, ham and cheese sandwiches and dry cake ( prefabricated) at a bar far from the reception. No drinking water in the room so you need to walk a while to get a cup of water. The guests in the hotel are mainly east Europeans/ Balkan. The level of hygiene norm is different and you should be prepared for that . One lady taking food with her hands. A girl about 10 years urinated through her bikini in the sand between the sunbeds. Small children playing naked on the beach and in the pools. A lady took her child for peeing in the flower space in the pool area. The child defecating as well . Someone ( another guest) told her and she actually removed the faeces. No personal is around to regulate this type of behaviour for the sake of other guests. I have tried the gym. It's a small room with no ac and smells bad, dirty . The whole equipment is old , rusty and the machines are non functional some just stuck in one mode. No towels or disinfectant and no watter for the first week. The spa area is very small and can't say it is worth 20 euros. The beach is nice but people are smoking. The toilets where out of order , lookd overflowed and it was urin all over the floor. At the beach bar , for the all inclusive guests , you can buy food and drinks with 20 % discount. The sunbeds are for free The beach towels can be changed in the room with the rest of the towels. I can't recommend this hotel . I think they should change the star status to 2 star plus . They should have more structure during meals and not change the menu during the dinner because they don't have more of the same food. Buy more plates and ask gusts in a kind manner not to take more food than necessary. I love Greece! I will come back but never to this hotel.

I recently stayed at this hotel and would like to highlight the excellent service I received. A big thank you to Agapi and Eriola – both were extremely friendly, helpful, and quick. You truly made my stay more enjoyable! However, there are a few things that could be improved. Although the rooms are said to be cleaned daily, it didn’t always seem that way. On several days, it was quite clear that little to no cleaning had been done. The dinner buffet was also a bit disappointing. The variety of main dishes was very limited, which was a letdown considering the overall quality of the hotel. On the positive side, the location is great, and I would still recommend this hotel – especially for families with children. Just be aware that it can get quite noisy, so it may not be ideal for those looking for peace and quiet. Also, the beach is very rocky, which might not be suitable for everyone.

Stevan Ciric

We had a wonderful time during our stay. The room was spacious(Junior suite) with a view of the pool and the sea. The food was excellent(breakfast and dinner) and the staff was very kind. Pizza was perfect every night. Beach and the pool was great and very clean. Perfect hotel for kids and real holiday!Highly recommended!

tako abramishvili

Definitely a high-class hotel complex that spans a vast area. It was a truly positive experience for us. At check-in, they offered us a complimentary upgrade to a higher room category. The staff were always ready to assist whenever we needed anything. The private beach is very clean and well-organized, with comfortable facilities. Rooms offer beautiful views of the sea and the hotel’s marina. There’s a wide range of activities, diverse food options (they even serve honeycomb!), a spotless and well-managed kitchen, and delicious drinks at the bars. The pools are filled with saltwater — though I would love to see the pool design refreshed, as it does feel a bit outdated. There are three fairly large pools. Room service is excellent, and you don’t even need to leave a deposit for beach towels — a small but very pleasant gesture. The hotel complex itself includes a private marina for yacht trips, a golf course, a supermarket, a clothing store, a spa, a beauty salon, beach and poolside bars, and even a pharmacy. I might be forgetting something — everything you could possibly need is right there. I believe we’ll return if we get the chance. Our daughter also had a wonderful time. There may have been small things we didn’t love, but honestly, nothing worth remembering. Thank you, and best wishes!

Ambra Bani

A love story with Porto Carras – Not what we expected, but everything we’ll remember.” We came looking for luxury, and found something deeper. The breathtaking marina view, the wide open spaces, and the quiet magic of each day stayed with us. A few flaws, yes — but more than that, unforgettable moments.

Alexandros Kotzegien

We booked the junior sweet but honestly a regular room would be as convenient. We did pay for all inclusive which in my opinion makes sense as the prices are a bit higher and not having to worry about money does make the vacation more pleasant. The all inclusive allows you to get most cocktails and drinks at most locations around the resort. It also offers to have 3 dinners at the a la carte restaurants which very nice. The beach is nice and the food is great a lot of options and even a kindergarten where you can leave kids alone if older than 4. I would visit if you have small children.

Leafy

This hotel was built 50 years ago, it was stunning and a symbol of beauty, class and nobility....our recent experience there was to say it politely appalling...it felt like a cheap all inclusive low range hotel with low standards.. screaming and shouting children, yelling parents nonstop, customers fighting over umbrellas, taking two parking spaces for one car, causing unnecessary noise, bringing there own big speakers at the beach not respecting others around them and management that didn't really care. This place really is not worth 300€ a night for b&b, maximum 100€ given you don't mind rudeness...we never felt that there was anything remotely luxurious or noble about this place. There's natural and architectural beauty but nothing else. Try other beachfront places if you are looking for quality holidays..

Absolutely Perfect – A Slice of Paradise! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (10/10) I recently stayed at Kassandra Palace Resort and it truly exceeded all expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm smiles and exceptional hospitality. Every single member of the staff was incredibly polite, helpful, and genuinely kind — they made us feel so well taken care of throughout our stay. The resort itself is nothing short of a paradise. The entire property is beautifully maintained with lush greenery, palm trees, and stunning sea views that instantly put you in vacation mode. Whether you’re relaxing by the pool, strolling through the gardens, or enjoying a drink by the beach, every corner feels like a dream. Our room was clean, comfortable, and peaceful – just perfect for unwinding after a sunny day. The food was delicious with plenty of variety to suit all tastes. I honestly can’t fault a single thing. Kassandra Palace Resort is a hidden gem in Greece, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and unforgettable getaway. If I could give it more than 10 out of 10, I would!

Alina Constantin

This is our second year staying at this wonderful hotel, and this time we came back with our 1 year and 4-month-old daughter. Everything is amazing – the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with anything you might need. The food is varied, catering to all tastes, and absolutely delicious. They even have a kids’ menu. The rooms are very clean, and the housekeeping ladies come in daily – they do a great job maintaining everything spotless. The hotel has a large garden with a dreamlike decor – palm trees, many olive trees, beautiful flowers, a pool for adults as well as one for children, and a very well-maintained private beach with turquoise water. The beach bar is lovely, and the à la carte restaurants look fabulous. One thing I really loved was the animation team – they invite you straight from the beach to join different activities like aqua gym, flexibility classes, and even fun Greek language lessons. Harris was absolutely amazing! We also saw staff members on the beach gathering children to play in the sand with beach toys – such a thoughtful touch. Thank you for this wonderful experience. We’ll definitely see you again next year!

Marko Stankovic

This is our third time here, and everything is still just as great — they haven’t let the quality slip. The beach is fantastic, with plenty of sunbeds available, and the entrance to the water has been improved by removing the rocks. The food is as good as always, and the rooms have been upgraded with new furniture in the bedrooms. The bathroom tiles have also been renovated. The staff is exceptionally friendly. We’ll definitely be coming back again!

Valeriia Bieliavska

We are enjoying the last two days of our stay in Kassandra Hotel. This week was amazing. The sea is wonderful, the weather is great and what is more the hotel itself is a warm welcoming place we would recommend to everyone. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They are ready to resolve any problems you have and always with clients’ interest in mind. Food is also great, you can find what you like and more. The hotel is located between two small towns which can be reached by taxi if you need to buy some souvenirs, otherwise it’s a nice calm and safe location which provides you with a possibility to relax and enjoy yourself. So to cut a long story short, it’s a lovely place to spend summer vacation.

Ani Metreveli

The hotel is fabulous. The grounds are immaculately maintained. The food is very good, with lots of options. The staff is very friendly. By the way, the coffee at breakfast was so good. Even though the rooms clearly need upgrading, they are so clean you hardly notice it. What was also very important to me is that food and drinks outside the half-board menu are reasonably priced. The pool is absolutely fabulous. I've been to a number of five-star hotels in the area, and none of them had such an amazing pool. All in all, I was extremely satisfied with my holiday at Kassandra Palace.

Ciprian Georgiu

We stayed at this 5-star resort in Greece and overall had a great experience, though a few areas could be improved. The hotel itself is beautiful, with well-maintained facilities and a peaceful atmosphere. The rooms were quiet and comfortable — perfect for a relaxing getaway. The beach was another highlight: clean, scenic, and pleasantly shady during the first part of the day, which made mornings especially enjoyable. There was also ample parking available, which made things very convenient. The only downside was the food, which felt average and not quite up to the 5-star standard we were expecting. Still, it’s a lovely place to unwind and enjoy the Greek coast. With some upgrades to the dining experience, it could be truly exceptional.

ahgiysty Tinca

Great hotel. Big pools. Very nice staff. There are a lot of good and cool restaurants there. I just love it. I highly reccomend you to go here if you want a quiet, luxurious and nice holiday. The beach isn't big, but It's very nice.

Nicola Church

Really loved this hotel. Think it's the best one I've been to in Greece. Lovely room. Everywhere was immaculate. The staff could not do enough for you. From Reception, to the Managers, waiting staff, everyone. I never met anyone who wasn't smiling and helpful. Plenty to do around the hotel and some lovely walks nearby. If you want the local towns, you have Nikitti or Marmaris. Both about 15 euros in a taxi or there is a hotel bus that can take you. Be careful though, as they charge per person so it may be cheaper to get the taxi if there is more than two of you. We shall definitely be back!

Ashley Gomes

Stunning hotel with amazing location, especially if you have a car; but still easy to get around with a cab or the hotel’s minibus to nearby towns (around €6 pp per way). Convenient parking near the rooms and private parking and pool beds if you are in an Armonia suite. Beautiful private beach, multiple pools, stunning sunsets. Staff were all super friendly and helpful, including spa and restaurant teams. Food was generally very good, though some dishes were hit or miss. At the moment there is a family of kittens living near the Limoni restaurant, definately one of the highlights for us. A few downsides: lunch options could be better, no free drinks (even water) included with lunch or dinner even on full board, and housekeeping came into our room a few times despite "Do Not Disturb" sign. Overall though, great spot for a relaxing stay, more suited for young families or couples looking for a quiet getaway.

Ovidiu Eugen Rusu

I really loved this hotel! It has a nice vibe! We had a very relaxed vacation with our kids and friends. The personnel was very kind and helpful and the food was delicious! I definetely recommend it if you're looking for a quiet/relaxed vacation!

Andrew Minor

The views and service here are superb. If I could give 6 stars for service, instead of 5, then I would. The staff are wonderful, truly. So friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The food is to die for, of the highest quality, and so varied in flavours and options.

Plamena Georgieva

Once you go inside the resort, you forget every worry. Everything is taken care of. Excellent restaurants and room service, friendly staff, I have been there twice and hope to have the possibility to go again and again.

Robert Maloney

Absolutely stunning place from the minute we got here we were treated with a glass of fizz and then booked our reservations for the week then taken to our room. We spent most of the week by the adult pool,where Ava was absolutely fantastic from cleaning our sunglasses to keeping us hydrated and fed 10/10.The food in the evening was very good and also a special mention to the front reception team especially vamjelis the general manager, aguilina , and nikolas the list could go I would highly recommend this hotel it is faultless worth every penny we will be back oh and the Tesla for the day was a nice touch thank you

Vincent Rettenbacher

An unforgettable experience! IKOS Oceania offers true luxury at its finest. From the impeccable service to the exquisite dining options, every detail exceeded my expectations. The resort is stunning, beautifully maintained, and radiates elegance. The staff made me feel truly special throughout my stay. I can wholeheartedly recommend this exceptional place and look forward to returning soon.

Mollie Shannon

The most amazing stay here the hotel would be 10/10 if the rooms were bigger and a bit more modern but I couldn’t fault anything else. The food is incredible and drinks. I’ve never been to a hotel with so many vegetarian and vegan options I could have. The level of service also is amazing. A special mention to Eva at the adults only bar she’s the best waitress I’ve ever had, and also to the waiters and chef at the fresco Restaraunt who made my partner a caffeine free tiramisu from scratch just so he could try it. We will be back!

David Newman

We stayed at Sani Porto during half term with friends, and it was hands down one of the best holidays we’ve ever had! The setting is absolutely stunning – from the beautifully kept grounds to the luxury feel throughout the resort, everything was flawless. The service was exceptional from start to finish – warm, friendly, and always willing to help. The food was outstanding too, with a brilliant range of restaurants that catered for both adults and kids. Travelling with children, we found it perfect for all ages. The facilities are top notch, the beach is pristine, and the whole place has such a calm, elegant atmosphere. It’s rare to find somewhere that ticks every box, but Sani Porto truly does. We made amazing memories with close friends and can’t wait to return. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a luxury escape with a personal touch!

Al El

Is it possible to stay in the hotel and get everything you need provided that your pocket is deep enough. The food is good. The hotel's beach I prefer in Sani Dunes. With a car, there are plenty of other beautiful beaches in short proximity, but if the idea is not to drive anywhere else, the beach is good enough.

Eleanor Bennett

Favourite holiday! Was everything and more we'd hoped for. Staff were so attentive and lovely, hotel was incredible and had everything you could ever need. Such a wonderful place for a family. Will definitely be coming back next year! Thank you so much Sani Beach.

We had a wonderful holiday at Sani Beach. We went with our one year old and out of the hotels it seemed as Sani had so many family friendly facilities. They were wonderful in all the restaurants at accommodating dining with a toddler. The food was lovely and restaurants plenty you could choose from. The marina was pretty a small walk away and grounds kept beatifully. We liked our family room and the beach at Bousoulas was so nice and safe. The splash pool was great for little ones. We had a lovely experience at the spa / the massage was wonderful and the gym was also good had equipped well. We went on a complimentary boat trip which we enjoyed and the white party was impressive! Being a half or full board experience - If you plan on drinking lots it would make it an expensive stay but we didn’t drink much and found it perfect yet on the more extravagant side cost wise. However if you can afford , the luxury touches and ease of stay meant we came home more relaxed than we went which is no mean feet with a toddler. Sofia in guest relations was fanastic at guest experience / customer service. She looked after us very well. Thanks for a wonderful first family holiday.

Jade Marlowe

We had a wonderful week at Sani Beach in May 2024. It was the perfect hotel to stay with our 3 year old son. Ammos was our favourite spot for breakfast. The food is amazing and we loved the beachfront location. Extra thanks to Julie who made our stay so special and provided exceptional customer service. We look forward to visiting again soon!

Amélie Weill Touret

Amazing hotel! We ve been there already 3 times and it's always getting better! Paradise for kids and parents. Activities, food and beaches are perfection The service is just amazing! Everyone are so kind... Specially Andreea! She is the Dunes's Fairy...And Mr Osounis is very attached his clients are living their best life in his hotel! We love so much this place we will come back this summer.. We are addicted!

Rodney Rosalia

Visited for 1 day, took a day pass for the beach - compared to Caribbean, the beach at sani dunes was below expectations. Other than that , friendly staff and a great food selection

Jade Marlowe

We had a wonderful week at Sani Dunes with our family and friends in May 2024. We would highly recommend The Market for dinner. The tuna tartare, striploin and White chocolate rice pudding was exceptional! Special thanks to Panagiotis who provided amazing customer service. We look forward to visiting again soon!

Alexander Proschofsky

Can just confirm what I wrote couple of years ago. Service Level was even better this time. Guest Relations was super and the Sani app is state of the art. An amazing hotel. The friendliness of all the staff in all areas is amazing. Very nice design and setting, great restaurants, beautiful rooms, a very well equipped gym and much more. One of the very best places I have been to.

Maximilian H.

Sani Dunes Resort is a gem that truly exceeded our expectations! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a seamless check-in process. The resort is impeccably maintained, with beautiful landscaping that instantly sets a relaxing tone. The on-site dining options are excellent, with a variety of delicious dishes that cater to all tastes. Overall, Sani Dunes Resort provided an unforgettable experience with exceptional service, comfort, and convenience. We can't wait to return and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect beachside retreat!

Amy Hussain

We’ve stayed at all of the Ikos properties, but our recent trip to Ikos Olivia has truly set a new benchmark — it offered the best service levels and food we’ve experienced so far. Our stay from start to finish it was exceptional. Leon and his team at the deluxe pool were outstanding; they checked in with us every day, always taking time for a friendly chat and to see if there was anything at all they could do to enhance our experience. Their commitment to high standards was second to none - one day Leon even took my glass of champagne back to the bar simply because he felt the glass wasn’t chilled enough. That kind of attention to detail really stood out. The daily gin trolley at 4:30pm became a fun little highlight for us, such a lovely touch that we looked forward to each afternoon. Our children absolutely adored the kids club and couldn’t wait to go each day. They even begged to stay late for the special evening events until 10pm, a testament to how wonderful and engaging the team there is. A special mention also to Niki, the guest relations manager, who took incredible care of us throughout our stay. She always went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, not just for us, but for all guests. Overall, Ikos Olivia delivered an unforgettable holiday with service that genuinely exceeded all our expectations. We can’t wait to return!

Silvia Opriscan

One of the most beautiful hotels in Greece — with the worst service we’ve experienced. The property and setting are absolutely stunning. Truly one of the most beautiful hotels in Greece, no doubt about that. But unfortunately, that’s where the positives end. The service felt like it belonged in a one-star resort. Every single request we made was answered with a firm no. We were traveling as a big group of friends, and not once were we allowed to dine together — not even at separate tables in the same restaurant. Instead, they split our reservations into three different restaurants at three different times. It felt like no effort was made to accommodate us. Even more shocking — the kids weren’t allowed in the kids’ club. Apparently, it was full or had strange rules, but no one gave a clear explanation. The hotel may look five-star, but the management and service are stuck at one. Hugely disappointing. We won’t be coming back.

Moni C.

The most amazing hotel experience ever. Gorgeous design accross all aspects: rooms, outdoor areas, restaurants. The service and the staff is by far the best thing, all so professional and helpful. They have in Ikos Olivia a splash pool for the kids and playground area which help so much with kids. High chairs in all restaurants, toddler cutlery, mini market with diapers/beach toys. The Deluxe Collection is just superb. The beach is the only thing I did not think was up in the standard of the resort. Cannot recommend Ikos Olivia more.

Michael

We had a great experience at Ikos Olivia. It’s a perfect destination for families, with highlights like a lovely park and a fun evening dance show that our daughter really enjoyed. All the restaurants were excellent and very child-friendly, making dining easy and enjoyable. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and the resort grounds are beautifully maintained. The food throughout was very good, with lots of variety and high quality. We dined at the buffet a couple of times and were pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. However, the service there—while warm and well-meaning—was inconsistent. Drink orders were often delayed, and we had to actively seek out staff to ensure we had something to drink with our meals. It made us glad we had restaurant bookings on the other nights. Booking restaurants was also a bit frustrating. You can only reserve three in advance before arrival, and once you’re on-site, securing the rest feels like a bit of a race—definitely not the relaxed start you expect from a luxury holiday. Additionally, although most service was excellent, some basic things were overlooked. We frequently had to request drinking water in our room. Housekeeping kept things tidy and beds made, but simple touches like restocking water were often missed—something you'd expect to be seamless at this level. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would return, but attention to a few details would elevate the experience even further.

Sarah Giles

Just perfect . Gorgeous hotel and grounds, pools are amazing, staff and service everywhere was second to none, incredible food even at the buffet. Kids loved the immaculate beach and pools. Deluxe room and pool were stunning. We were also blessed with warm sunshine all week. Could not fault it!👌🏻

Loutfy Mansour

Great hotel great service. But for the price point there should be a designated gym for the property unfortunately using the gym of the another property does not work.

Kim Luther

Sani Asterias hotel is another level, the staff are all amazing, the white sandy beaches are beautiful and peaceful, the restaurants food is the best quality and choice, reception is glorious design and the staff are excellent. The spa is amazing had a massage with Eva which was the best I’ve ever had the overall quality and experience is first class plus

Kevin B (oioisavloy)

A holiday paradise. 2 hour south of Thessaloniki, Sani Resort is an outstanding beach side chill out location.

Janet Lloyd

This rates as my top holiday hotel. It is the most amazing place. The staff,the position,the views,the restaurants are amongst the best I have ever experienced. This hotel has top class management and the staff working within this structure are amongst the happiest and friendliest I have ever had the pleasure to meet. This hotel, and the resort that it nestles in is unique,and a place I defy any discerning traveller to find fault with. It keeps enticing my husband and I back year after year. We never tire of this place.

Arik Sela

We are frequent travellers to luxury hotels. Sani Asterias must be one of the top resorts we ever stayed in. Immaculate friendly service, top class maintenance and facilities & attentive management. Top 5 stars!

Natka Jankova Alagjozovska

A really nice hotel, offering enchanting landscapes. They serve really good variety of food. The pool is great also the pool par. On weekends they organize a Greek night which is really good. The only minus is the beach...maybe something should be done to improve it. Everything else is perfect!

Robyn Angelidis

We arrived late into the evening on our first day, and were provided with a room close by the reception which was small but adequate, the only disappointment was they gave us twin room rather than double , despite us being married Shocking that Tui, expect you to specify this! The wonderful staff, did everything they could within 24 hours to provide us with a double bed in a different room I much preferred our original room but we asked and the very kind staff did what they could so we could be comfortable l. The hotel is perfectly situated on the coast with many different beaches to enjoy, if you have a car this is easier! We stayed half board and we were very delighted with the quality of the food everyday, the chef and restaurant staff work extremely hard to keep everyone happy! Thank you to everyone we really enjoyed our stay!

Raimi Mitchell

Do not stay here! My trip 9/7-16/7 . The website is 10 years old. Rooms were dated, bugs, mildew... This WAS a beautiful place but it has been neglected. While the property it nice, some of their policies on food or services was limited. You couldn't ask for extra towels from the staff without being waved off or glared at. The food was ok, they kept it repeating diners over the 7 days in my trip. Hard to call the place a RESORT when the price of the stay doesn't reflect the property, cleanliness or amenities. Save your money and get an Airbnb/ house. DO NOT STAY HERE

Ana Beselica

We stayed for 5 nights and overall, the experience was a bit underwhelming. The all-inclusive package only lasted until 23:00, so if you wanted a drink after that (even just at 23:30), you had to pay extra. What was more disappointing is that we were only given one bottle of water in the minibar for the entire stay. Every time we wanted water, we had to walk to the pool bar for a glass—or pay for a bottle, which doesn’t feel very “all-inclusive.” The beach area also left much to be desired. There were no umbrellas, just some uncomfortable beds placed in the shade of olive trees. Also, there’s no sand, which may be a downside for beach lovers. On the positive side, the staff were absolutely amazing—very kind and helpful throughout our stay.

Adam

Not a 5-star hotel and you will pay a higher price for tax (€15/night), it's at most a 3-star hotel. The biggest shock was having our all-inclusive wristbands taken away on the last day at 11:00 AM, right after breakfast and checking out of the room. We had to wait for our airport transfer until 6:45 PM without any access to food or drinks. We could have paid €24 per person to keep the all-inclusive option for those few hours, but we declined and instead went to town in the afternoon for a pizza. We have been to many all inclusive places around the world and it is the first time such thing happened to us. Rooms are visibly cleaned, but surfaces require wiping with wet wipes – only then are they truly clean. Almost every room had some kind of issue. In our room, the hairdryer didn’t work. In our friends’ rooms, the fridge and TV were broken, and in another room a few things also didn’t work. Only after the tour operator's representative got involved did the hotel staff actually take care of it. When I asked personally about fixing the hairdryer and whether it would be done that day, they just said “possibly.” But after we complained to the rep, it was handled immediately. Our friends even got their room changed. In the main building there was hot water, but in the adjacent building where our friends stayed, the water was lukewarm at best, and the room was very cold and damp – despite it being the end of May. Food was okay but repetitive. For more demanding guests, the choice will be limited and definitely not up to 5-star standards. Due to the small number of guests, the Greek night event was cancelled. On the plus side, it’s quiet here (at least in the olive grove area, where you can lie down and read a book). The nearest small town is a 45-minute walk away, and there are no buses. The only options are renting a car or taking a taxi. To sum up, this hotel leaves a very average impression. I wouldn’t recommend it and I wouldn’t return. You can find something better for a similar price, for example in Possidi, just 10 minutes away by car, where there is a beautiful beach for sunsets and at least some infrastructure. The beach at Anastasia is rocky, and because it's located on the first finger of the Chalkidiki peninsula, it's extremely windy. At 23°C it was impossible to enjoy a pleasant swim. We only managed to sunbathe and swim later at Orange Beach / Paradise Beach on Sithonia, where, despite similar temperatures, it wasn’t as windy and felt much nicer. One big plus was the Rainbow Tours representative, Ms. Magdalena, who organized everything perfectly and solved every problem. Without her, the stay could have become unbearable. Thanks to her, it was okay – but as I mentioned before, this hotel is only worth it if you find a really good deal, like €800 per couple with a flight from Poland. Otherwise, it’s just not worth spending more on this place.

We stayed here on the last week of May and it was an absolutely amazing experience. The hotel is situated on the beach with crystal clear water and fishes swimming up to your feet, the water is so calm and relaxing. There is a private beach area with umbrellas and service from the hotel bar, and the swimming pool area is nice and clean too. We opted for the seafront room, and managed to enjoy sunrise from our balcony almost every day. We were here for 6 nights and opted for half board, which included breakfast and dinner, food selection was very pleasant, and the buffet selection changes every night from greek themes, to international selection to BBQ night. Rooms were cleaned on a daily basis to a high standard, we had an issue with the toilet smell only on one night and it was dealt with professionally as the hotel staff was very concerned about it. The manager personally attended to the room and ensured that the smell was gone before we went back into the room. All in all, I wouldve rated the service level in this hotel as 6 stars rather than 5 for all the staff's commitment in making our stay so enjoyable. Minor improvements: Drinks like orange juice (5EUR) and milkshake (9EUR) was not fantastic, tasted more like out of a carton box than fresh juices, and milkshake tasted warm. Secondly, there is additional charges for using debit or credit cards outside EU, hence I had to pay around 4% on top of what I paid on my hotel bill. There is no charge if you bring CASH or a EU card. Unfortunately, it was a bit shocking to me that the hotel passed on the credit card charges to the guests. Nevertheless, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, I enjoyed the wine recommendations, the attentiveness of the hotel staff to both my wife and daughter, please keep up the great work! Thank you!

We have been to this hotel a couple of times as a family of three. We don’t have anything but praise. The hotel itself is very modern, clean, and well maintained. Rooms are cozy and beds are comfy. The terrace is nice and spacious, with a very nice view, especially if you’re on the seaside. In the mornings, you can enjoy the beautiful views of the sunrise. There’s a very nice and wide sandy beach just in front of the hotel. The water is often warm, and the shallow part stretches far. Breakfast and dinner are amazing. Breakfast is usually similar every day, but there are so many options to choose from. Dinners are thematic (Greek, Italian, international, BBQ…) and always different. The food is so delicious, and there are so many different dishes every day! Depending on the day and the theme, they also offer a free aperitif. Finally, what made a big impression is the hotel staff. Everyone is so, so nice, from the reception staff, the management, the restaurant staff… They are really going above and beyond to make your stay as perfect as possible. We’re recommending this hotel to everyone we know, and we’ll definitely be coming back again.

We had a wonderful 5-night stay in the spacious penthouse suite, perfect for our family of four. The balcony view was stunning, and the beach is the best in Halkidiki. The staff were very kind and friendly. The Greek-themed dinner buffet was amazing. The only downside was the repetitive breakfast buffet. Overall, a fantastic experience, we’ll definitely return.

We were really disappointed with this beach. We paid €40 for a set of sunbeds, and that didn’t include any drinks or extras — not even a bottle of water. On top of that, the toilets weren’t even available for use, which is unacceptable given the price. The beach itself is nothing special, definitely not worth the high cost. Overall, the value for money is very poor and we wouldn’t come back or recommend it.

Child friendly, beach blue flag with sandy and smooth entry into the water. Staff at the restaurant and beach are super nice and always helpful. Cleaning in room was done daily with refilling of water and coffee in the room ( Kudos for that ). We had a few issues at reception but have been fixed swiftly by management. Overall a great hotel, small and cosy for a relaxed vacation for families with kids.

I have flight from Sweden to Greece, to Thessaloniki. We ordered a van to bring us from airport to Halkidiki. It went perfect, really. Everything. Nice clear car, polite driver, some goodies for my daughter. I strongly recommend!

I recently had the pleasure of using this car transfer service and was extremely impressed with the level of service I received. The vehicle was in excellent condition, clean and spacious and had all the modern amenities you could wish for. The heated seats were a real highlight and made my journey even more comfortable!! The driver was also very knowledgeable about the local area and was able to provide me with some great recommendations for things to see and do during my stay. Overall, I would highly recommend this transfer service to anyone looking for a reliable and professional solution to get around town or travel to another destination. Best regards, Archontia

I booked a transfer from Thessaloniki to Hanioti Halkidiki on June 26th with return on the 29th. They were on time, called me in advance and gave me good directions how to meet up. The vehicle was very clean and the driver made sure the ride was comfortable ( not going too fast, abiding by the signage ). They also helped us with luggage and gave us good recommendations on what to do and where to go in Hanioti and nearby areas. I have zero complaints about the overall experience and the price was also very reasonable for the distance and service.

Excellent service and great transfer. The Driver was very polite and he advised us for a lot of sightseeing and activities. They transported us for our full stay in Greece

George Papavramidis

The van was very clean and cosy. The driver was polite and we really enjoyed the ride with him. Thank you very much for your time and your patience. Keep up the good service.

Recently returned from our 3rd visit to Sani and 1st visit to Sani Club which did not disappoint. Everything from the room, resort facilities and food are fantastic. Club definitely feels more private and exclusive to Beach, although we still had the option of using the splash pools at Beach which our boys love. The new promenade is an added bonus, seamlessly connecting all of the resort hotels along the beach front either by walking or buggy although the Volvo service and shuttle bus are great too. We have already booked to stay at Sani Club again next July and cannot wait to return.

Dear Sani Resort, I want to thank you. Me and my family have been at your resort 7-8 times, and have never been more happy. You have the truly BEST resort in Europe, best staff, best service, thank you so much for the unforgettable memories, for contributing to my childhood, friendships, mentality, happiness, Sani became a part of my family. Endless thanks to everyone and everything at Sani, you made me understand there is a paradise on earth. Thank you for making my life better. With Love❤️

Catherine Wekema

We had a truly unforgettable stay at Sani Club. Our beachfront villa with private pool was perfect, and the service was exceptional — from Mikael at the pool to our amazing concierge Alex. The food, even without seafood, was outstanding, and breakfast at Cabana (with a custom keto meal!) was a daily highlight. The nanny service, Volvo resort transfers, and even the airport welcome on our return made everything feel effortless. Highly recommended for families and couples alike.

I would like to take the time to praise the Sani Resort team for providing us with the perfect stay at Sani Club for our anniversary. The hospitality we experienced on what was our first visit to Greece was unrivalled and nothing short of world-class. Aside from the fact that the Sani Resort is stunning with ample all-round high-quality facilities and services, it's the professionalism and warmth of the staff that stood out for us (particularly towards young families with children). There are too many for us to mention. Despina (Reception), Harry and Andreas (Olympus Restaurant), Aggelos and Evangilidis (Pool Area), Melanie (Concierge at Dunes) particularly stood out, who went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. The staff also all praised the management team, which reflected in their beaming smiles and amazing hospitality. They are a great credit to the fantastic work they are doing. Thanking you immeasurably, and we look forward to arranging our next visit at Sani Resort!

Not long returned from our 4th stay at Sani and unfortunately, it is starting to show signs that its an assets that starting to be 'sweat' by its investor owners. We've previously had 3 flawless stays and despite the steep increase in price and prices for food and drink we came back a 4th only to see the effects of shareholder pressure (it was bought out by a heavy syndicate of investors including Goldman Sachs late 2022). Understaffed and under attentive in areas, repeatedly having to ask to order and chase drinks I'd also echo what others have experienced with the reservations team, completely inflexible pursuing the computer says no approach to any request. The resort is amazing and still one of the best in Europe but I suspect it won't be for long. It was definitely quieter this year than any other which explains the uptick in advertising I've seen on the usual socials and the tasteless use of influencers to promote themselves. Year on year steep increases in prices which have never really bothered me when everything has been so perfect, however, with more recent drop off in service and attentiveness it really starts to grate. We stayed as a family of 4 for 10 nights and even with our half board allowance had a 3K Euro bill at check out. Its now out the point which cost exceeds the value. Sorry Sani, we've had our fill.

We stayed at Porto Sani over the May half term. Words cannot describe the overall experience of a fantastic holiday. The hospitality received from Dimitris (reception personal concierge ) and Dimitrios (front office manager) made our stay extra special. Thank you for ensuring our family created memorable experiences and treasured memories!

Igor Riabenki

We had a wonderful vacation there, we were there for 5 days, my family with two children, everything was great and thank you very much Manos He was our concierge at this hotel and he was just wonderful.

Our stay at Porto Sani was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel incredibly welcome, delivering a level of service that truly exemplifies a 5-star experience. The room we stayed in was luxurious which was room 215, equipped with all the high-end amenities you would expect from a top-tier resort. Porto Sani is a perfect destination for families. We loved that everything was within walking distance, including the beautiful marina and pristine beach. The resort's transfer buggy service was a fantastic convenience, making it easy to explore every corner of the property with minimal effort. The buffet offered a great variety of dishes, maintaining high standards throughout. Our 7-year-old enjoyed the selections, and we found it to be ideal for couples as well, thanks to the spacious layout that allowed for privacy even during the busy high season. A special shout-out to Vlad from Sani Beach. We can't wait to return to Porto Sani, this little slice of paradise some point in the future!

Words can hardly describe our experience at Sani Resort. This resort offers an unparalleled blend of luxury, hospitality, and natural beauty. Everything is meticulously taken care of, from the stunning accommodations to the breathtaking beaches and the wide variety of restaurants and activities. The staff excels at making your stay unforgettable, striking the perfect balance between professionalism and personal attention. Without a doubt, this was the most extraordinary and complete resort experience we’ve ever had. We can’t wait to return!

Cannot fault the kind staff. Especially Riad at Artemis in Porto Sani. He cannot do enough for us and his attention to detail and politeness was amazing. Eugenia our personal helper was so lovely. We wish we could bring her home. She made our holiday. We will be booking the same time next year and recommending to everyone we know. My dad recently had heart surgery and his surgeon is now coming!
