Kastri Elia sits on a green hillside just outside Nikiti, on Sithonia's western coast overlooking the Toroneos Gulf. The complex of ten two-story suites was built among century-old olive trees and flower gardens, using wood and stone throughout to match the surrounding landscape. The Deluxe Family Suite carries this through with a private balcony or terrace facing the garden, a sitting area and sofa bed for extra space, and a fully equipped kitchenette for meals taken at your own pace.

Inside, marble bathrooms, individually controlled air conditioning, and a flat-screen TV with movie and sport channels are included, alongside daily maid service and free Wi-Fi, with views of the gulf below.

Nikiti itself is a short distance downhill, its Blue Flag sandy beach lined with seafood tavernas and beach bars, and its old town featuring cobblestone streets, stone houses, and traditional tavernas.
