Belohorizonte is a short walk—about 200 to 300 metres—from the white sand of Skala Fourkas beach, a Blue Flag stretch that runs for 2.5 kilometres along the Kassandra coast. In the evenings the sun drops toward the sea in the direction of Mount Olympus across the gulf, a view many guests come specifically to watch from the terraces near the shore.

Each unit at Belohorizonte opens onto a private balcony or terrace with sea views, furnished in a clean, modern style with a compact kitchenette for preparing simple meals. Rooms are refreshed daily, and linen and towels are changed every three days, a level of housekeeping closer to a hotel than a typical self-catering stay. Air conditioning is individually controlled, useful during the warmer months.

The traditional village of Fourka, about two kilometres inland, keeps its stone-built houses and Byzantine church largely undisturbed by tourism, while the coast itself has fish tavernas and beach bars for evenings by the water. Families will find the beach and its surroundings easy to manage, with a small amusement park behind the beach for children.
