We rested with our parents at the Cronwell Platamon Resort at the end of May. Good hotel on the first line with a gorgeous large sandy beach. Sunset in the sea is wonderful, clean golden sand, only occasionally came across small pebbles. The hotel, in principle, has an excellent location - on the one hand, the Thermal Gulf of the Aegean Sea, and on the other, the Olympus mountain range rises. The air was amazing, but because of the mountains it was a little cloudy. Every day we admired the view of the mountains from the windows of our room. We also liked the room very much. We arrived at 11 am, exactly at 12 we were settled. The room is spacious, clean, with good new furniture, but quite simple, no frills. The room was in the main building of the hotel. Comfortable beds with medium hard mattresses, free safe, air conditioning, mini-bar, TV with a Russian-speaking channel, telephone, hair dryer. There are also slippers and bathrobes. Spacious balcony with table and chairs. We had absolutely no complaints about the room. The territory of the hotel is huge, there is where to take a walk after dinner. Vineyards grow on the territory of the hotel, there is a cage with a peacock, we liked everything very much. Most of the time we spent, of course, on the sea. It was calm, without waves, as it is a bay. The water is clear, warm and very pleasant. Sunbeds on the beach are free, they also give out towels, you just need to say the room number. The food at the hotel is also good, but sometimes I wanted a little variety. We had half board, which means breakfast and dinner. We dined every day in neighboring towns - either in Platamonas or Nei Pori, where there are good classic Greek taverns. What we liked about food is fruits. There were not so many of them, but they were always fresh and very sweet. Peaches, apples, strawberries, cherries, kiwi. For example, they cooked a variety of fish. The hotel has children's animation, a lot of young boys and girls, including Russian speakers. We could not evaluate the animation, as we rested without children, but other children ran with the animators cheerful and satisfied. We did not go on excursions, we rested only 7 days, but we rented a car from Mouzenidis Travel (our tour operator) and rode around the region. Not far from our hotel, on a hill, there is an old Venetian castle, which offers a stunning view of the bay and even the Chalkidiki peninsula opposite. The area in the region is very beautiful, a lot of greenery, rice fields, kiwi plantations. There are several supermarkets in nearby Platamonas, you can buy fruits and vegetables and store them in the fridge in your room. In the center of the town there is a beautiful church, many shops with souvenirs, very lively. They were very pleased with their vacation, for seven days they had a great rest in wonderful Greece (for the first time, by the way). We plan to return in September to the same hotel with children and friends.
