Overview
Overlooking the Aegean and wrapped in mature gardens, Kassandra Palace is a classic Halkidiki hideaway with a contemporary twist. A short stroll through the pines brings you to a sandy beach, while back at the hotel you’ll find sleek rooms, a full-service spa, pools for all ages and an easy-going, family-friendly atmosphere. The setting is quiet and secluded, yet you’re close enough to Kriopigi’s tavernas if you fancy a traditional Greek evening out.

Map & location
Kriopigi, Halkidiki, Greece
Set on the first “finger” of Halkidiki’s Kassandra peninsula, Kassandra Palace enjoys a peaceful position just outside the traditional village of Kriopigi. Olive groves and pine trees frame the hotel’s lawns, which lead gently down to the sand-and-shingle shoreline.
Kriopigi itself sits on the hillside above, a warren of cobbled lanes, cafés and family-run tavernas, while the wider peninsula offers laid-back beach bars, coastal walks and boat trips. It’s a great choice if you want somewhere scenic and restful without sacrificing easy access to local life.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
The heart of resort life centres on the duo of outdoor freshwater pools, framed by lawns, sunbeds and parasols. One is dedicated to adults and families, while children have their own shallower pool for splashy play. Complimentary pool towels are provided, and inflatables and water toys are allowed in the kids’ area.
On cooler days or for a more tranquil dip, there’s also an indoor heated freshwater pool in the spa area, reserved for adults and typically heated from late April to late October.
Follow the path through the gardens and you’re at the hotel’s sandy, gently shelving beachfront – ideal for paddling, sandcastles and lazy days with a book. Ninemia Beach Bar keeps you topped up with drinks and snacks, so you don’t have to venture far from your lounger.
Spa, sports & wellness
Wellness takes centre stage at the spa, which features a sauna, steam room, Turkish bath and whirlpool alongside a menu of massages, facials and beauty treatments (charges apply; minimum age 16). An on-site hairdresser is handy if you’re getting ready for a special evening.
The air-conditioned gym is well equipped with cardio machines, free weights and strength-training kit, and there’s a programme of activities such as aqua aerobics, basketball, darts, Pilates, table tennis, tennis and yoga to keep everyone moving.
Elsewhere, you’ll find a pool table, an on-site mini-market for holiday essentials and gifts, and leafy grounds that are perfect for a stroll at sunset. Evening entertainment runs on most nights in season, with live music, quizzes and a mini-disco for younger guests.
