🏖️ Porto Sani - Mediterranean Calm, Thoughtfully Curated
Nestled within a sprawling 1,000-acre ecological reserve on Halkidiki’s Kassandra Peninsula, Porto Sani is a sanctuary of sunlit simplicity, reborn in 2020 after an extensive €30 million renovation into 98 modern suites for families.
This is beachfront luxury reimagined through an eco-conscious lens: lagoon-style pools, private gardens, healthy cuisine inspired by local bounty and community collaboration.
💡 Why It’s Sustainable & Luxurious
✔ Carbon Neutral Since 2020: Powered completely by renewable energy since 2019, Porto Sani leads in national eco-progress
✔ Zero-Plastic & Waste Reduction: Banning single-use plastics, diverting water to onsite irrigation, and partnering for recycling & composting
✔ Biodiverse Grounds: Preserving 110 hectares of forest and wetlands, now home to 225+ bird species; eco-excursions are daily attractions
✔ Community & Local Economy: 60% of produce is locally grown; the resort supports artisans, NGOs, animal rescue, and marine projects
✔ Bioclimatic Architecture: Passive design, natural stone, Ioanninon marble, modern cooling and ventilation systems, all blending simplicity with elegance
✨ Luxury Highlight: Family suites with private terraces or pools, Michelin-caliber dining, and a spa suite dedicated to holistic reconnecting.
💸 Is It Worth the Price?
Though rates start from around £3,300 for 7 nights full-board including flights (per recent pricing) , you’re investing in more than a room:
A biodiverse beachfront sanctuary on Greece’s first carbon-neutral resort
Family-curated luxury with wellness and ecological discovery built in
A community-minded operation supporting local lives and habitats
It’s an eco-luxury experience that both soothes and sustains.
