Polychrono Hotel 2026 – Facilities
When you stay with us in Polychrono, you want comfort, a bit of fun, and the easy holiday rhythm that Halkidiki does so well. Below you will find the key areas and services at Hotel Odysseas, with a few practical local tips from people who look after guests here every season.
Check out availability at Hotel Odysseas – Polyhrono, Halkidiki, Greece:
We are on the Kassandra peninsula in Halkidiki, an easy drive from Thessaloniki and the airport if you are hiring a car. If you are arriving by bus, you can usually reach Kassandra via KTEL routes and then continue locally, but do check the latest updates on official sites as schedules can change. For wider planning, the Greek National Tourism Organisation is a solid place to start: https://www.visitgreece.gr/.
SWIMMING POOL
The heated outdoor pool of Hotel Odysseas is waiting for you!
Surrounded by our beautiful and special bananas, it creates the ideal setting for your summer vacation! It has wooden sunbeds with a waterproof mattress, while in the same place is located the hotel restaurant, where you can dine or have your drink and cocktail at any time of the day! On warm days in July and August, that little bit of shade from the greenery makes a real difference, and the pool area stays pleasant even when the sun is strong.
Pool time, the local way
Guests often ask me when the pool feels best. Early morning is calm, perfect if you like a quiet swim before breakfast. Midday is lively, with families taking breaks between beach time and a bite to eat. Late afternoon is my favourite, the light softens and you can properly unwind with a drink nearby, no rush at all.
- Tip: If you are heading to the beach after the pool, bring a light cover-up. The sea breeze can feel cooler once you are wet, especially on days when the north wind picks up.
- For little ones, it is easier if you do pool first, then beach. Sand sticks less when everyone is already relaxed.
- If you are sensitive to the sun, ask us which spots get natural shade at different hours. It changes through the day, and it helps a lot.
And if you are planning your beach days around weather, winds, and sea temperature, it is worth checking an official forecast before you set off. The Hellenic National Meteorological Service is reliable for Greece: https://www.hnms.gr/.
Have fun in our pool and experience unique summer moments!

All you need to do is fill out the registration form.
What we can help you with, day to day
Reception is not just keys and paperwork. It is where you get the small answers that make a holiday smoother, especially if it is your first time in Halkidiki. If you are driving, we can explain the easiest routes on Kassandra and what to expect on busy changeover days. If you are not driving, we will point you to the nearest useful stops and how to move around without stress, even if you are travelling with kids or prams.
- Beach guidance based on the day’s conditions, because water clarity and waves can change with the wind.
- Where to go for an evening stroll in Polychrono when it is busy, so you do not end up circling in crowds.

If you are planning a day out, Kassandra has plenty to explore by car. Central Halkidiki is greener and cooler in the evenings, and Thessaloniki is doable as a longer day trip if you start early and avoid peak traffic.

ELECTRIC CAR CHARGING STATION
ELECTRIC CAR BENEFITS AT HOTEL ODYSSEAS!
Speaking of electric cars, we are talking about the future. They are considered one of the most modern trends in the automotive industry and it is observed that more and more people in our country choose to purchase them. Electric cars, using electricity by charging against gasoline or other environmentally unfriendly fuels, do not have polluting environmental effects, unlike hybrid cars. Charging the car is easy and can be done immediately and quickly at any charging station.
Electric car charging stations in Halkidiki
- At the Lidl Hellas store in Kassandria, Halkidiki
- In the courtyard of the Halkidiki headquarters – in Polygyros
- On the provincial road Paliouriou-Afytou, at Leonidas apartments
- At Mount Athos Resort, in the port of Ierissos
- At Kaoil gas station, at the first kilometre of Nea Moudania-Sithonia

Of course, at the Odysseas Hotel, we are proud to be actively involved in many ways to reduce environmental pollution, enabling our customers to charge their electric cars at our electric charging station. We keep pace with the needs of the time and turn to the future. So charge your car comfortably and easily in our hotel!
Driving on Kassandra with an EV
In summer, Kassandra roads can get slow around the main village entrances, especially late afternoon when everyone heads out for food. With an electric car, it helps to plan charging a bit earlier than you think you need. Distances are not huge, but traffic and air-conditioning can change your range, and you do not want that worry on holiday, trust me.
- Top up during quiet hours if you can, then use the car freely for beaches, viewpoints, and evening drives.
- If you are doing a longer loop towards Central Halkidiki, start the day with a comfortable charge and keep a backup option in mind.
- Ask at reception if you want a hand planning a route, we do it all the time and it saves you hassle.
At the moment, our hotel produces more energy than it consumes!
For any clarification or questions, do not hesitate to contact our staff!
BICYCLES PARKING
Do you want to rent a bike during your vacation or do you want to bring your bike and your children’s bike? Then you do not have to worry about where to park it.
Our state-of-the-art hotel has secure bicycle parking right next to our hotel entrance.
Easy rides around Polychrono
For many guests, a bicycle is the nicest way to do the short distances without thinking about parking. Early morning is best for cycling in summer, before the heat builds and before the roads get busy. If you are riding with children, keep it simple and stick to quieter stretches, then stop for a swim and an ice cream. It sounds obvious, but it makes the day feel like a holiday, not a mission.
- Bring a small light for evening rides. Streets can be lively and you want to be visible.
- Carry water, even for short trips. The sun can surprise you in June and September too.
- If you are planning longer rides, ask us about the day’s wind. A headwind on the way back is a proper pain.
PRIVETT GYM & FITNESS
Meet the Hotel Odysseas state-of-the-art private gym!
Do you want to continue your daily exercise during your vacation? Our hotel, offering a variety of services and treatments, gives you this opportunity with its private gym. You can start your day with exercise, before you even enjoy breakfast at the hotel, but also at any other time of the day. You can perform a variety of activities and exercises, such as gymnastics with cardio instruments, leisurely walking while watching informative news on TV or intense running on an uneven level on our fully professional treadmill. The options are many and our facilities are modern and adapted to your needs. Of course, all the necessary hygiene rules are observed, so that you can enjoy your exercise feeling confident and safe!
Keeping your routine on holiday
Some guests come for total rest, others feel better with a bit of movement each day. The gym is ideal if you want a short session before the beach, or if the midday heat is too much for outdoor activity. A simple workout, shower, then breakfast tastes even better, honestly.
- Morning training suits couples and solo travellers who like a quiet start.
- Families often use the gym in shifts, one parent trains while the other gets the kids ready.
- If you prefer outdoor exercise, ask us about safe walking routes at the right time of day, so you avoid traffic and heavy sun.
Get ready for an unforgettable fitness experience!
PRIVET CAR PARKING
For those of you who are worried about parking your car, it is worth mentioning that we have 150 meters of private car parking, without any further charge and upon availability and timely arrangement. The staff of our hotel will be at your disposal for any clarification.
Practical parking notes for summer
In July and August, village parking fills up quickly, especially in the evenings. Having private parking nearby takes that pressure off. If you are arriving late, let us know in good time and we will do our best to guide you smoothly. On changeover days, traffic can be a bit mad around lunchtime, so a little patience goes a long way.
- Unload bags first if needed, then park. It keeps the entrance clear and makes check-in calmer.
- If you are planning day trips on Kassandra, start early. Roads are easier, beaches are quieter, and you get the best sea colour.
PRIVATE HYDRO-MASSAGE & JACUZZI
Are you looking for moments of absolute calm and relaxation? Then, we have to inform you that the hotel Odysseas has spa services and a private hot tub. Enjoy private, relaxing moments in the unique, mosaic hydro-massage of our hotel! The hot tub is four-speed and can accommodate from 2 to 5 people. The low lighting, the mosaic dome with the stained glass paintings and the calm of the colours, create a highly magical setting that will take you to a state of absolute calm and enjoyment! So indulge in the magic of the moment with your partner, family, or friends! Our hotel also has a jacuzzi for 4 people with the main goal of your absolute rejuvenation and relaxation. Our spaces are completely safe, they have lockers for your items, showers, toilets and staff who are willing to serve you at any time.
When guests love it most
This is the treat people remember, especially after a long drive down from Thessaloniki or a full day in the sun. Couples often choose an evening slot when the village is busy outside and they want something quiet. Families and small groups like it earlier, then everyone goes out for dinner feeling fresh. Just tell us what kind of vibe you want and we will help you pick the right time, no stress.
- Best after a beach day if you have been swimming a lot or walking on hot sand.
- Great for older travellers who want relaxation without long outings.
- Ideal on a windy day when the sea feels cooler than you expected.
The main concern of our hotel is to ensure your absolute well-being and relaxation! Leave it in our hands!
A gentle note about comfort and safety
We keep the area clean and looked after, and we ask guests to follow the simple guidance from staff so everyone enjoys it properly. If you have any health concerns, or you are travelling pregnant, it is always best to check with your doctor before using hot water facilities. It is a small thing, but it keeps your holiday easy and safe, and that is the whole point.
