Zélia Halkidiki – a first for Destination by Hyatt in Greece • Hotel Designs
With a planned opening of Zélia Halkidiki under the Destination by Hyatt brand by the end of May, the new adults-only resort will be the second Hyatt-affiliated resort operating in Greece, comprising 104 guestrooms and 18 suites.
Set on the picturesque coastline of the Kassandra Peninsula, Zélia Halkidiki will provide a gateway for guests to experience the true beauty of the destination, with stays centred on relaxation, rejuvenation and personalisation. Just 50 minutes from Thessalonki International Airport and 25 minutes from the centre of Nea Moudania, the property is in a prime positioned to explore all the region has to offer.

Guestrooms and suites offer the ultimate comfort and style, complete with views of the Aegean Sea or lush gardens, Le Labo toiletries and king-sized beds. For serene seclusion the design includes the Swim-Up Suites with private terrace, or the Panorama Loft Sea View Suite, set across two floors featuring a private balcony.
Guests will be able to unwind at the Zélia Amazonia Spa, enjoy state-of-the-art fitness facilities, or take a dip in one of the two pools framed by plush sun loungers. Those wanting to venture further afield can arrange curated hiking and e-bike tours through the dedicated concierge, with routes winding through sand dunes and coastal forests, peppered with pitstops along the way to soak up breathtaking vistas.

Elevating Halkidiki’s culinary scene, Zélia Halkikdiki’s dining options will be led by award-winning Chef Vassili Papatheodorou, whose menus blend international flavours with local produce. Indulge in Mediterranean-inspired plates at Mesogaea, fresh bites at Zest and Japanese-Peruvian fusion at Shizen. For a more intimate experience, Syntrofi, set within a fragrant vegetable garden offers a farm-to-table experience where chefs transform produce into delectable dishes served up during private dinner under the stars. Complementing the culinary offerings, two chic bars offer handcrafted cocktails and local wines, while live music enhances the ambiance as the sun dips beneath the sea.
