Pefkohori, Halkidiki, Greece Holiday Review - Very welcoming and relaxing.
Submitted by: Lauren
Date of travel: 03-June-2007
I took my 11 year old daughter to Pefkohori. This was her first time abroad and she loved it. The Pella Studios were great, they would put on BBQ's every evening and every one would get together and have a laugh. By the 4th day everyone knew each other so it was like a family holiday. The pool was small but it was adequate for the size of the studios and guests who were staying. The resort is very welcoming, the locals are the best, you would want for nothing. A few yards down the road you would come to the beach and you could join in the fun. It was so much fun; I never knew a holiday could be so enjoyable and homely. As it was only me and my daughter, most evening we would stay at the hotel bar and speak with the other guest, but there was a few night clubs and bars for the younger ones if they fancied a night out.

Afitos, Halkidiki, Greece Holiday Review - Beautiful history to Afitos.

I like a holiday with great scenery and culture and Afitos, Halkidiki was spot on. I enjoyed a walk through the old villages and cobbled streets, the old building were superb, very well looked after and the village was very clean. The beach had mountains all the way round the coast, the view was jaw dropping. This is what Greece is all about, the historic features and its past life. My hotel was based in the centre of Afitos which I truly enjoyed. There was small cafe's, bars, shops and restaurants all knitted closely together. It was amazing and cosy looking, you felt comfortable and at home. I also discovered the semi-secret cove which was a top feature and an amazing experience to see. I recommend you to visit Afitos, you will not be disappointed.

Halkidiki, Greece Holiday Review - The bestest place i've been..

All I gotta say is, if you book a holiday to Halkidiki then stay at the Oceania Club Hotel. It was drop dead gorgeous. Nothing can beat this hotel, no way. The pool is so amazing, with the ocean in the distance and mountain views, it was out of this world. There was also an inside pool too, it was a like a spa complex. The rooms are like heaven, massive bed with TV and a huge front room/kitchen and a large bathroom with marble floors. WOW! The hotel restaurant is like 5 star service, 3 course meal and a free glass of bubbly with your main course. And there was a huge fireplace, even though it wasn't lit, it was gorgeous. The bar was free for the guest up to a certain time then you had to pay, I thought that was reasonable and the staff were very friendly and kind too. The resort was nice, great evening night life and my favorite bar was the Venus bar, where you could play pool and darts and dance on the bar, just how I like it. You can't beat Halkidiki, the people, the food, hotels, entertainment, beaches... Nothing will ever compare. The weather wasn't as hot as I would of liked but I have heard it can be to hot and unbearable so I was happy with the time I went.
