help me choose
Tell me, veterans! We want to visit Greece, 3 adults, a child 11 years old, a budget of up to 90.0 tr., we want a warm sea, a convenient beach, proximity to the village. because we love to walk, watch, chat, (a stupid beach holiday is not for us), without special requests, the only thing is that the hotels are not huge, but cozy, green, small. What resort, island, we do not represent. Perhaps attracts Halkidiki because of the Aegean Sea, because. warmer. We are planning a holiday in July. Thanks in advance for your replies.

In July, the Aegean Sea will be really warm, and the air will be just hot, burning.
In Halkidiki I recommend this hotel, new and cozy:

Is the Aegean warmer than what? In Halkidiki, or in the same way as in the rest of Greece, or colder, but not warmer in any way))) The only plus of Halkidiki is the sandy beaches. But there is a beach holiday, the main natural beauties and historical places far from Halkidiki.

It is really hot everywhere in July, but from the end of August, in September, it can be not hot at all in Halkidiki, unlike the islands and the Peloponnese.

hot, I understand, but still the air is drier than in Turkey, this is already a plus. And any other recommendations and tips for holidays in Greece?

And, you compare Halkidiki with Turkey, calling them Greece)))) I see. Turkey is out of my interests, but I like Greece and Halkidiki, alas, the least of where I was in Greece. The sandy beaches are amazing. But there is nothing more to do there. And, fur coats are still vtyuhivayut. Boring.
But on the other hand, there are a lot of charters in Thessaloniki, package travelers are massively transported, etc., if you buy package tours, then this is your way.
I really liked the Peloponnese (4000 km wound) - it’s very cool everywhere, but the beaches are mostly pebble or rocky.
Here, for example, the top beaches - subjectively, but still - you can choose "your" beach:

It’s still difficult for me to advise why: I’m from Ukraine and we have almost no airfare at a normal price. Charters without package tours were Thessaloniki / Crete / Rhodes and that's it! And the regular season, as we flew to Athens, was no longer very budgetary.
And in Russia, as far as I understand, you can pick up an air ticket more successfully, so Zakynthos or Corfu may turn out to be budget-friendly.
I would consider, first of all, the islands and the Peloponnese, and rest, and excursions, everything is nearby.
In Halkidiki, you can only go to Meteora for 3-4 hours one way, and roll up for 2 hours to the foot of Mount Olympus (nothing special and this is not Olympia). On Athos, all the same, only men are allowed, and there are not their own rules for them.
All the sights of the world and no more. The mountains are also low, but the sea is cool)))

Okay, Hatinka.
It's good in Halkidiki. Especially considering the requirements of the vehicle: the beach, the proximity of cities, a limited budget, the presence of a child.

Is this a limited budget? I don't understand rubles. It is clear that Chalkidiki is the easiest and cheapest of all, but why is everyone obsessing over them, although they are not much like the rest of Greece.
We must consider other options, Halkidiki is not the most interesting in Greece. Comfortable sandy beaches - I agree, cheap, I agree, with small children, I agree. But the city is close, I do not agree. Tour is so-so.
Most people in Greece visited Halkidiki in full confidence that this is the same Greece, where every stone is world history)))
But, unfortunately, this is just a beach holiday and that's it. Well, still fur coat shopping. And the topcaster wants, as he himself put it, "stupid beach vacation is not for us" ...

thanks for the answers, that's what I wanted to hear, I'll look for something interesting on the islands. I would like to get acquainted with Greek cuisine, a la gastronomic tour))). and swim in the sea, and dangle on excursions. So we ask everyone who is familiar with the country, and Halkidiki is really heavily advertised, so it seems that they were going there

And I am for Rhodes with both hands. There is also the Aegean Sea, but in July the water will be excellent in the Mediterranean. There is something to see: history, monasteries, nature is simply incomparable. We were in Blue Sea. You will not regret.

If Turkey does not like the climate and nature, then neither Rhodes, nor Chalkidiki, nor Crete will impress you much. It looks like because
If you put something else into the concept of "Turkey is not good" - culture, people, attitude towards Russian-speaking people in resorts, then in Greece it is different and the farther from Turkey, the more different.
I understand that you will still buy a tour? Right?
Look more in the Nafmplion area. There were many of our tourists there. I understand that package tours are organized there. The people live mainly in the village of Tolo. The city of Nafmplion is beautiful, there is both nature and sights and the same Greek flavor.
There were many of ours in Loutraki, but I would not advise because there is a sea there, but if you look at the map, there is a large bay, it is separated from the sea by a narrow strait (near the city of Patras, if the Corinth canal is not counted ). But there are pluses - hotels with AI, casinos, mineral waters (both in sanatoriums for treatment, and just pump rooms throughout the city). The water is salty, not tasty ;-) Toko to be treated)))
I really, really want to go to Corfu! I liked it too. There is only one minus - in fact, there is only a beach and you can walk, and if you go somewhere, then it’s already a problem, far from the main attractions

maybe Chalkidiki is advertised (Hatinke), but somewhere in the wrong place. The main natural beauties and historical places are far from Halkidiki - yes. But Halkidiki is beautiful in itself. And NOT THE MAIN attractions and beauties have enough of their own. The same Nea-Fokia, Hanioti, etc... I myself like both the mainland and the islands.

Well, have a good rest!
Still, Halkidiki is definitely better for a vacation with a child, an inexpensive and comfortable stay.
And you will ride around the places of world history later, and of course, not in July - the hottest month in Greece.
Good luck!

In Halkidiki, a rare hotel, especially one that can be recommended, will be close to settlements, except perhaps, and both beaches and nature have it there. Once again, I will advise Simantro Beach, if with children - Russian-language animation, pine trees. sand beach

Come on. Read the very first comment in this thread again. Nea Kalikratia, a real city, not a village, and the hotel is very good, and right next to the sea. Like this.

Of course, I'm not an expert like sigur62, victorias, Solea, and even more so hatinka, but I really liked Crete. Maybe not everywhere the beaches are sandy, but you can choose to rest in the cities and nearby attractions. And in general it is interesting, what did you choose? If it's not hard to share. And I will definitely go to Rethymnon next time !!
