Quiet slice of Greek sunshine
Is a peaceful, sun-soaked retreat just what the doctor ordered? Enter Olympia Golden Beach Resort & Spa – a quiet hotel tucked away in a secluded corner of the Greek countryside, less than 10 minutes’ walk from a stretch of dine, sandy shoreline. Plus, there's a complimentary shuttle bus that will get you to the shores in about a minute.
Days at hotel are best spent ambling around the grounds, lazing by the pool, or indulging in some R&R at the spa. There’s a tennis court in one corner, where you can work on your backhand, and a playground in another where the kids can blow off a bit of steam. Visit during the busy summer months and a kids’ club is on hand during the day with a selection of organised fun and games for the cohort aged 3-12.
A buffet spot dishes up continental breakfasts and themed dinners, while a second spot by the pool is open in the afternoons with a tempting menu of Greek and Mediterranean fare. Two bars handle the drinks, with service til late if you don’t fancy turning in just yet. A couple of nights a week you’ll be treated to a spot of live entertainment, too. Think low-key live music that makes for a perfect way to wind down the evening.

Find out more about Kyllini
If you’re looking to balance beach time with a little history, you’re in luck. This pocket of the Peloponnese is riddled with traces of ancient civilisations. South of Kyllini, you’ll find the legendary Ancient Olympia, where the Olympic Games happened for over a thousand years, and from the Frankish Castle of Chlemoutsi, you can catch views across Kefalonia.
