Danai Beach Resort

Halkidiki

OVERVIEW

Halkidiki splays out across the Aegean like a trident; if you are imagining this, Danai Beach Resort is located on the second ‘prong’, in Greek Macedonia. This is called Sithonia. Arriving from Thessaloniki you’ll drive through an inconspicuous gate into what is essentially a small village, complete with designer boutiques.

Carefully expanded over the decades, the former family home now affords its own private beach, a serene spa, three fantastic restaurants and more child-friendly facilities than you can shake a stick at. Almost everywhere is open to families, including the palm-flanked outdoor pool which has lots of loungers and attentive staff who are able to bring refreshing drinks to your side.

If that’s not enough relaxation for you then head indoors to the spa pool which is a refreshing, child-free retreat with a full menu of pampering delights. Don’t miss the Cleopatra room for a chance to sink into the golden bath tub.

What to do

Relaxation is the name of the game at Danai Beach Resort – soak up the sun on the private white sand beach and enjoy an oriental holistic therapy at the spa before sinking into the golden Cleopatra bath or even indulge in some retail therapy in the onsite boutique. Alternatively, head down to the nearby village of Afytos for a spot of people watching in one of the vibrant local cafes.
