We flew to Greece in May with my sister. We chose the Ioni hotel in a small resort town on the Aegean coast on the Greek mainland. This region is ideal for those who want to combine a beach holiday with trips to the main attractions of Greece, since all the most important and significant is located on the mainland.
From the arrival in Ioni, the trip immediately took on a positive color. As soon as we entered the hotel, we were greeted by a pleasant and sweet lady receptionist. Check-in went smoothly, we were accommodated in a good double room. Both in the hotel and in the room it is very pleasant to be, everywhere is clean and tidy. The hotel itself is located right in the center of the town, everything you need (from currency exchange offices to food markets) is at hand.
On days when we did not visit any excursions, we went to the beach (it is very close to the hotel, 20 m) sunbeds and umbrellas for an additional fee, and in the evening the city came to life and the streets were filled with people. We liked to walk to the port, where we really liked the restaurant where delicious seafood is prepared.
It was also nice to realize that we live near the Greek gods - Olympus was not far from us. The landscapes of Greece, of course, are amazing, we are very glad that we were finally able to see all this fabulous beauty and touch the Greek culture, which has such a rich history.
We fell in love with Greece and hope to return here again and again!

Hotel Ioni 3 * is located in the heart of Paralia Katerinis. Rooms are available both with a view of the sea and the embankment, and with a view of the courtyard. This hotel is one of hundreds of similar small villas with 9-12 rooms. The hotel is cozy, the area is small, nice rose garden, garden. Very hospitable hostess.

Hotel Ioni 3 * is located in the heart of Paralia Katerinis. Rooms are available both with a view of the sea and the embankment, and with a view of the courtyard. This hotel is one of hundreds of similar small villas with 9-12 rooms. The hotel is cozy, the area is small, nice rose garden, garden. Very hospitable hostess.
The rooms are comfortable - small, but clean and bright. We lived in a room overlooking the sea - very nice: on the one hand the church, right - the sea, on the left an abandoned hotel, which is also good - no one looked into the windows. There is a drawback - very noisy in the evening - at the bottom of the promenade street. For those who lead a nocturnal lifestyle, this will not be a hindrance, but since. we basically spent our whole day sightseeing, sightseeing and going to bed early enough, the constant noise was a bit annoying.
Breakfast is monotonous - every day the same thing (salad, yogurt, bread, cheese, sausage, muesli and sooo delicious muffins), but for the unpretentious (like us) it is quite suitable. Because we are outdoor enthusiasts, so we dined at various delicious restaurants along the coast and in Halkidiki (we rented a car and drove there - beautiful). Lunch cost us 20-30 euros for two with seafood and wine. For those who eat fried potatoes and hamburgers, there are plenty of establishments offering food in the range of 6-10 euros for two.
The sea near the hotel (and throughout Paralia) is muddy, you can swim only in the morning hours: within 2-3 hours after dawn, while the city sleeps and the water is crystal clear. After dinner, there is already kalamut, seaweed, pieces of paper and a lot of people. For swimming, it is better to go either to the left (if your back is to the sea, facing the church) behind the port, or to the right towards the Mediterian Village 5 * hotel (the beaches are public everywhere).
I recommend the hotel to unpretentious active travelers who spend their holidays outside the hotel, and only sleep and wash in the hotel (although it’s not a sin to sit on the balcony with wine and fruit). In my opinion, there is absolutely nothing to do here for people for whom pools, animation and oliglusion are important.
Trips are available from the hotel - Olympus and Dion (20 minutes one way), Meteora (2.5 hours one way), Edessa and Eridea (3 hours). You can take a car and drive to Halkidiki (we chose the Sithonia peninsula as an object of interest and spent the night in the town of Sarti overlooking Mount Athos, by car for 2 days) and visit the Petralona cave (on the way to Katerini from Halkidiki).

The hotel is located in the very central place of Paralia Katerinis, right next to the embankment, as well as next to the bus stop that goes to Katerini - this was important for us, because the Paralia resort itself leaves much to be desired - in our village it is more interesting, by God . . We did not stay there all the days bought from Mouzenidis, but went on an independent trip around Greece, while our room was idle.

We did not stay there all the days bought from Mouzenidis, but went on an independent trip around Greece, while our room was idle. We ended up spending three nights there. Only once we managed to visit breakfast, and two more times the hostess prepared sandwiches for us on the road, because. we went out very early (to Olympus and on the day of departure).
The hotel itself is not bad - huge balconies (in any case, those that overlook the courtyard - we had a room without a sea view), a plentiful delicious breakfast, a friendly hostess named Olympia, even beds, clean linen, a comfortable bathroom, a room and a bathroom are quite large, the Greek style is observed in the decor of the corridors.
There are several nuances: the lack of towels when we moved in - we had to ask. Also the hot water in the shower was cold one evening. Well, the hostess would have to learn a little English (although we must pay tribute, even with little knowledge of English, she tried to help).
An ideal place for a trip to Mount Olympus - only the city of Litochoro is better, but it is also more expensive there.
