Holidays that’re this picture-perfect don’t come around often – the Porto Carras Meliton Hotel sits pretty on a nine-kilometre stretch of sand that slopes into the sparkling waters of the Aegean Sea. Tucked into its tree-covered grounds you’ll find a spa, a golf course, a casino, an organic vineyard, and even a private marina lined with bobbing yachts.
Everything about this hotel is luxurious, from its rooms – which come with views over the sea, the marina, or the golf course – to its stylish collection of bars and restaurants. At mealtimes, you’ve got the choice of three restaurants at the hotel, and another two tavernas by the marina. During the day, relax by the pair of outdoor pools or under a thatched parasol on the beach.
If that sounds too slow paced for you, you can get involved with tennis, volleyball, watersports, and more. Bikes are also available for hire, if you fancy exploring the local area on two wheels. You can also pay a visit to the Domain Porto Carras winery for a tasting session, if the mood takes you. Little ones will be thrilled with the activities line-up, too – on top of the activities at the kids’ club, there’s a bowling alley, a children’s pool, and an open-air cinema.
Looking for some added relaxation? Head to the Meliton Spa, where you’ll find a heated indoor pool, a thalassotherapy pool with massage jets, a team of Jacuzzis, a sauna, and a steam room. There are 27 treatment rooms as well, where you can expect pampering therapies like massages, facials, and beauty salon services.
