Filoxenia Studios

Location

The location is just stunning! From our room we did have an amazing view over the roofs of the town and the Ocean. Only few minutes walk to the coast side and promenade.

Ideally situated right at the entrance of the village, this property offers a distinct advantage for those arriving by bus from Thessaloniki. Although the village is compact, avoiding a long walk with luggage and beach gear in the extreme heat is a major plus. The accommodation is cozy yet pristine, featuring a well-appointed kitchenette with a small stove, coffee maker, and essential utensils. Guests can also enjoy a distant view of the sea horizon from the charming balcony. Travelers visiting Afitos without a vehicle should note that the apartment is located a considerable distance from the shore. The beach boasts magnificent, crystal-clear waters but is situated at the base of a steep hill. The walk up the stairs serves as good exercise but proves challenging during hot summer days. Overall, this is an excellent destination for a serene family vacation, offering a uniquely tranquil atmosphere compared to more commercialized areas in Chalkidiki. The hosts exemplified professional hospitality with their warm and friendly demeanor.

The beach location is a challenge for those without a car if they aren't fit enough to climb many stairs up and down. Sunbeds are really overpriced for mediocre service, and the so-called "consumption" of food and drinks throughout the day would have worked out just fine had the offerings been a bit wider.

The apartments are new, elegant and clean. Located 10min away from the village center, where all restaurants, bars and supermarkets are located.

There is one issue which is the air-conditioning system, which is in very poor condition, impossible to cool the apartment. Considering the heat waves in Greece during summer, this becomes a big problem.
