The pool area is genuinely one of the best I've seen at an all-inclusive — five stars, no hesitation. Staff and the room itself were excellent too. Food was good rather than outstanding, and while the location is convenient, it's not the most scenic corner of Halkidiki. Best Room Views is well-earned if you book the right category — ours looked straight over the gardens toward the sea.
