Sani Resort — Hotel in Kassandra Municipality

We have heard a lot about the Sani Resort from friends who have children so we thought we must try it. We have already stayed at Ikos which is another hotel chain owned by the same group at Sani. However, the price at Sani is higher than Ikos plus Sani does not include drinks iso all water, soft drinks and alcohol you pay on top. To give an estimation of costs, we stayed at Sani Beach that is the cheapest of the 5 hotels in Sani and paid about £1000 per night for 2 joining rooms for a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children). This price was based on full board that included breakfast, lunch and dinner. There is a “dine around” program at Sani that allows you to access most of their other 20+ restaurants however take note that the set menus are basic and we ended up ordering food from the main menu. Sani do offer a €20 per adult discount and a €10 per adult discount from the total bill when not ordering from the set menu. With drinks added on top then Sani is not a cheap option. Our favourite restaurants were Cabana (French), Beach House (Mediterranean), Fresco (Italian), Lima (Peruvian) and Psaroyannos (Greek with an amazing seafood platter that was divine and priced at €104)

However, having stayed at other good hotels, I do feel Sani could improve some things and although minor they could of really contributed to the stay being perfect. So here is the list:

1.The bedrooms. To me are more 4 star standard and small in size. The bathroom is small with a one of those stand up shower cubicles with a 180 degree plastic shower door. Bedrooms and bathrooms need updating and need to be larger. We did complain about the rooms and the hotel did offer us another room but it was merely the same style room a few floors up. The only difference was the view but everything else was the same so we decided to stay put given we had already unpacked all our belongings. 2.TV in bedrooms. Only 42 channels and 39 were not in English. Most customers at Sani are from the UK . Other 5 star hotels provide many more channels for free including movies and programmes for children 3.Internal buggies. Guests have the option to walk around the site but also have access to gold buggies run by the hotel at no charge. Getting a buggy from reception to go somewhere such as a meal was easy but then getting a buggy back to the reception was not easy. We were told to ask the restaurant to order a buggy once we finished our meal but on a number of occasions, we had to wait for over 25 minutes. We have no issues with walking back (e.g.15 minute stroll) but our daughter is in a wheelchair. If you are elderly or have very young children then the last thing you want to do at night after a meal is walk back in the dark. My suggestion here is two-fold. Allow guests to order buggies directly on an app just like Uber. This way it guarantees the buggy arrives on time and guests can track the location. Option 2 is to hire out buggies to guests during their stay. I would happily pay for this as it would of provided us greater flexibility and avoided the long waiting times. 4.Gym. Far too small for a hotel of this size. Suggest they make this a lot bigger as was always full and we could not access all the equipment 5.Beer in on tap. Being British then I love a cold beer (plus it was the Euro 2024 football tournament when we stayed there). Sani have a very green approach to their resort and have won awards for sustainability. The only draught beer (on tap) was this quite cheap local Greek beer. Whilst I recognize Sani are a business and there to make profit (I was informed recently they make on average profit of €1million a day), I feel they need to add more premium beers on tap to cater to their clients (e.g. Italian/French/German/Spanish beers). They could also stop selling bottled beers which would also support...

We were staying at Sani for a week, first two days were rainy so we found some indoor activities, then our son and I got food poisoning from the buffet, where are English kids watching ipads while eating everywhere you look so it looks a bit like a press conference room, it is a self service, everybody is touching the same spoons and the hygiene is poor. We got food poisoning, staying in bed for 3 days, got charged 300 euros for the hotel doctor coming to check on us, 300 euros for doing our laundry (maybe 1 load of baby clothes). When we got into a restaurants and the staff found out we have prepaid board, they could not be more cold, we often felt we are bothering them. We were charged all the time ridiculous amount of money for example 35 euros for a crappy appetizer, or 35 euros for a small inflatable that costs 5 euros everywhere else. They could have built the resort in Romania or Bulgaria and you would not know as there is 0 Greek atmosphere. The main attraction for us was the beach, which is really great, but due to the fact that it is next to the port, it was full of foam from the chemicals that they wash the boats with. When we recovered from the food poisoning, we still had a couple of days left. Our bungalow was very far away and steep hill up from the restaurant and the facilities, so everything required thorough planning as going back to the room was quite a challenge with 2 small kids, but usually, the electric cars were available to take us there and back. At the reception, we were constantly reminded to give them 5 star in the rating, I felt a bit pushed like they do it only for the rating as they were promised some bonuses for that. Our total for the week was about 9500 euros. Some perks: you have lots of activities included but again the resort is huge, sometimes they are so far a way that you need a car to get there and required advance planning, for example, the tennis courts were several km away by car for us, they mix a really great baby food for you whenever you need, the towel service is great the the beach boys are really nice, they will go above and beyond to do whatever you need. Also, restrooms are very clean and the facilities in general very...

Number 1 resort in Greece!

I recently had the chance to stay at Sani Resort in Greece, and I can honestly say it’s one of the most memorable holidays I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by how beautiful the setting is. lush green pine forests on one side, crystal-clear turquoise waters on the other, and a private sandy beach that feels like paradise. It’s the kind of place that makes you instantly relax and forget about everyday life.

What I loved most was the variety within the resort. Each part of Sani has its own charm—whether it’s the elegance of Porto Sani, the relaxed vibe of Sani Club, or the luxurious feel of Sani Dunes—but no matter where you stay, the service is truly first-class. The staff are warm, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make your stay special.

Food was another highlight for me. With so many restaurants to choose from, I never felt like I was eating the same thing twice. One evening I enjoyed fresh Greek seafood by the marina, and the next I tried a fine-dining experience that felt like something straight out of a Michelin-starred restaurant. The Dine Around program made it easy to explore different menus without worrying about extra planning.

Since I was traveling with family, I was especially impressed by how much there was for kids to do. The kids’ clubs were fantastic, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my children were safe, happy, and entertained while I had some time to unwind at the spa or enjoy the beach.

Another thing that stood out to me was the resort’s dedication to nature and sustainability. I loved seeing how they take care of the environment, from protecting local wildlife to reducing plastic use. It made the whole experience feel even more meaningful.

Overall, Sani Resort didn’t just feel like a holiday. It felt like a place where every detail was carefully thought out to give you the best possible experience. I left with amazing memories, and I can easily see why so many people return year after year. I know I’ll definitely...
