Glavas Inn
Greek seaside boutique with genuine family warmth. Not flashy, not corporate. The kind of place where the owners' dog wanders the gardens and the family actually lives on-site year-round.
Book a Deluxe category room or suite for direct sea views — garden-view Superior rooms are fine but miss the real show
Why It Matters
Featured in both the Michelin Guide and Tablet Hotels — unusual for a 3-star rated property in Halkidiki. The combination of commanding Toroneos Gulf views, a genuine family-run ethos going back 35 years, a Green Key sustainability certification, and an all-inclusive offering that guests consistently praise for quality sets it apart from the package-holiday competition in the region.
Glavas Inn is a family-run boutique resort that has been on this hillside since 1990, started by Dimitris and Flora Glavas and now run by their three children. It sits about 100 meters from a good sandy-shingle beach on the Toroneos Gulf, built amphitheatrically into the hillside so almost every room looks out over the water. The décor leans minimal — earthy tones, custom furnishings, marble bathroom surfaces — letting the seascape do the heavy lifting. All-inclusive is the main board option, and the food is a genuine strength: Mediterranean and Greek dishes prepared daily with local ingredients, including herbs grown on-site.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Deluxe Double Room with Sea View
The sea-view guarantee makes this the sweet spot for couples without kids. At 30 sqm it's bigger than the Superior Double, and the unobstructed Toroneos Gulf view from the balcony is the real reason to pay the premium.
30 sqmDeluxe Suite with Sea View
The top of the house at 50 sqm. Two separate bedrooms — one queen, one twin — plus a living area, making it genuinely private for families or two couples. The private patio with sun loungers faces the Toroneos Gulf directly, and this is the only room category that comes with dedicated private parking. Bathrobes and slippers included, which most other room types don't get.
50 sqm
Deluxe Triple Suite
Same 35 sqm footprint as the Superior Family Room but in the Deluxe tier, meaning upgraded finishings and a suite layout. Configured for 2 adults and 1 child.
35 sqm
Junior Suite
A step up from the standard double at 27 sqm, suited for a couple with one child. The suite label adds a bit more space and layout distinction over the Superior Double.
27 sqm
Superior Double Room
The entry-level room at 22 sqm — compact but thoughtfully done with custom furnishings and marble bathroom surfaces. Private balcony with either Toroneos Gulf or garden views. Good for couples or two friends. Walk-in shower, no bathtub.
Queen or twin beds · 22 sqmSuperior Family Room
At 35 sqm, this is built for families of up to 3 adults or 2 adults and 2 children. More floor space than the Superior Double, with all the same amenities. Balcony included.
35 sqmSuperior Family Suite
Bumps up to 42 sqm for families needing more room. Configured for 2 adults and up to 2 children. Suite designation means more separation between sleeping areas.
