Whilst there is a huge choice of accommodation locally, to suit every taste and budget, we thought we’d shine the spotlight on one particular resort which is popular with many of our customers.
The Sani Resort is situated on the Kassandra peninsula in Halkidiki and is home to some of the prettiest beaches anywhere. These beaches are also very child-friendly, no steep drop-off for example, meaning that young children can paddle safely (under supervision of course!) And the resort itself manages the gargantuan task of catering for everyone! And we do mean everyone! Set on a privately owned 1000 acre nature reserve, Sani has 5 different properties nestled into a diverse landscape which includes pristine forest, wetlands and beaches.
For foodies there is the Sani Gourmet Festival each May hosting a veritable feast of Michelin starred chefs from around the world. For families the Sani Beach resort is the best option with the Ofsted accredited Peppa Pig creche, kids’ club, teenagers’ club, the amazing adventure park complete with zip wires, and even an Academy to learn new skills- anyone for windsurfing?
The different properties are of a high standard and each offer something slightly different, from all suite accommodation at Porto Sani, to the high-end luxury of Sani Dunes. Each property has a different feel to reflect the diverse international clientele who come here. And with 18 different restaurants, bars and cafes to choose from, Sani Beach Resort is popular with residents and non-residents alike.
We see a lot of customers from the Sani Resort and it has done a lot for this part of Greece, providing employment, attracting international tourists and they don’t forget the environment either! All of their exquisite beaches have a Blue Flag for cleanliness, and the resort has won many eco-awards for their commitment to sustainability.
Although it can be difficult to tear yourself away from a large resort like Sani, where there are infinite activities to enjoy, we find that many guests want to see the real Greece, and of course that is where we can help too. We are based close by in Thessaloniki, which is the capital of Macedonia and the 2nd city of Greece. We are often lauded for our relaxed way of life and happy citizens.
Transfer Thessaloniki is the best choice for transfers to and from the airport as well as for sightseeing trips. See our other blog post about the amazing Unesco World Heritage site of The Monasteries of Meteora for ideas, but there is also the rugged Halkidiki coastline to explore, as well as the clifftop village of Aftyos with its magnificent, panoramic views across the region. Whatever trip you feel like embarking on, get in touch and we’d be only too happy to offer advice and a quote. You’d be happy too if you got to live in this beautiful part of the world overlooking Mount Olympus and on the Aegean Sea. And with places like the Sani Beach Resort, you too can experience this way of life, if only for a week or two!
