The Superior Suite with Garden sits just a few steps from the beach in Pefkochori, on the Kassandra Peninsula between Toronaeus Bay. At 26 square metres it is compact but well arranged, with a king-size bed fitted with an ecological Coco-mat mattress and a private bathroom stocked with Nuxe toiletries. Clean lines and understated décor give the space a calm, uncluttered feel, and the private garden opens onto a view of the green slope above the village, a reminder of the pines that gave Pefkochori its name.

The layout suits families well: a sofa bed in the sitting area brings capacity to four adults, and the kitchenette with fridge and coffee facilities makes it easy to handle breakfasts or a quick lunch without leaving the room. Air conditioning and free Wi-Fi cover the practical side of things.

Outside the door, Pefkochori's coastline is close at hand, with its wide, Blue Flag sandy beach and the tavernas, patisseries and small shops that line the village streets. Xenia beach, a long sandy stretch backed by beach bars, lies about two kilometres away, while Glarokavos beach, home to the Crazyland Water Park, lies a short drive further along the coast.
