Accommodation

On a white sand beach near mythical Mount Olympus, the five-star Dion Palace Resort & Spa Centre sits peacefully among greenery and shimmering, azure pools. Its polished, modern interiors create a calm space to retreat to afterbronzing yourself by the pool or sea, diving among tropical fish off the coast, or trekking through the lush Olympus National Park nearby.

Dressed in rich olive hues with splashes of pistachio, your ground or first-floor Classic rooms look onto the glistening sea, the pool or the surrounding land from their own balcony or veranda.

Dining

Named after nearby Mount Olympus' highest peak, Mytikas all-day buffet restaurant serves Greek and American breakfasts, and local, Mediterranean and global cuisine for lunch and dinner. Sit out on the lovely poolside covered terrace, among biscuit-coloured drapes and wicker lampshades.

There’s also a la carte restaurant La Medusa, which dishes up wholesome Greek food. For essential holiday drinks, pick between four bars. While the pool bar’s open until 6pm, the beach bar is alive and kicking until 11pm. Please note that some restaurants and bars are seasonal and only open during the summer months (July and August). Opening hours may also vary.

Spa

The airily modern Le Spa has both hotel guests and the general zen-seeking public flocking to its deliciously large heated pool, Jacuzzi and Vichy shower. Not only can you rejuvenate with aromatherapy and massages, you can sort out your hair, waxing, tanning and nails in one fell swoop.

Please note that use of the spa and treatments will incur an additional charge. Please also be aware that guests must be 15 years old or above to use the spa.

Location

Dion Palace lounges attractively on the beach at Litochoro, at the foot of Mount Olympus in eastern Greece, around an hour down the coast from Thessaloniki. While you’ll be lured by the sand and sea, squeeze in a trip into town to admire the traditional Macedonian architecture and to try classic Macedonian pies, and meat and cheese dishes.

If you crave lush vegetation and lofty peaks, delve into Greece’s first national park to admire Mount Olympus, a UNESCO biosphere reserve. Unsurprisingly for Greece, there are various religious monuments and pilgrimage spots to discover in the area too.
