Overview

 
Set on a pine-clad hillside with sweeping views over the Toroneos Gulf, Mitsis Alexander The Great blends traditional Greek character with a prime beachfront setting. A Blue Flag sandy bay sits just below the hotel, while spacious rooms, All Inclusive dining and a friendly, village-style layout make this a relaxed base for couples and families exploring Halkidiki’s Kassandra peninsula.

Wake to Aegean sea views, wander down through the pines to a Blue Flag sandy beach and round off the day with sunset drinks on the terrace – Mitsis Alexander The Great captures everything that’s easy-going about Halkidiki. Traditional whitewashed buildings cascade down the hillside, while the pool, tavern-style restaurant and beach bar keep days blissfully low key. For couples seeking Halkidiki’s charm with classic Greek character, Mitsis Alexander The Great delivers the perfect balance. It’s around 1 hour 45 minutes from Thessaloniki (SKG) along the Kassandra peninsula. See more Greece holidays.

The hotel’s outdoor freshwater pool has a generous sunbathing terrace with sunbeds and parasols, plus a separate section for children so younger guests can splash safely. Pool towels are provided free of charge.

Below the hotel, a Blue Flag sandy beach unfolds along the Toroneos Gulf, reached via a relatively steep path or steps through the pine trees. The reward is a sheltered bay with typically clear, shallow waters – perfect for leisurely swims and relaxed days by the shore, with the beach bar on hand for drinks and snacks.

FAQs
Is Mitsis Alexander The Great right on the beach?
Yes. The hotel is set on a hillside directly above a Blue Flag sandy beach. Access is via a fairly steep path or steps through the pines, so it’s wonderfully scenic but may not be ideal for guests with limited mobility or families with very young children in pushchairs.
What is included in the All Inclusive package at Mitsis Alexander The Great?
All Inclusive typically covers buffet-style breakfast, lunch and dinner at Roxani Restaurant, plus one à la carte Greek dinner per 7-night stay at Taverna Antonis with a reservation. Snacks are usually available from the beach bar and pool bar for around eight hours a day, alongside local wine, beer, spirits, cocktails, soft drinks and hot drinks served for at least 12 hours daily. Exact timings, venues and brands can change by season, so check the information sheet on arrival.
Is Mitsis Alexander The Great suitable for families with children?
Very much so. The hotel offers large family rooms sleeping up to six, a children’s section in the main pool, a supervised kids’ club for 4–12-year-olds, a playground with shaded areas and highchairs in both restaurants. The gently shelving sandy beach below the hotel is also great for paddling and sandcastles.
How far is Mitsis Alexander The Great from Kriopigi village?
The nearest supermarket is around 900m from the hotel and the centre of Kriopigi village is approximately 2.1km away. You can walk, take a short taxi ride or hop on local buses that run along the main road of the Kassandra peninsula.
Does Mitsis Alexander The Great have accessible facilities?
Public areas such as the reception, restaurants and pool terrace are generally easy to navigate, and there are lifts in some buildings. However, the hotel is built on a hillside and beach access is via a steep path or steps, so it may not be the best choice if you rely on a wheelchair or have significant mobility concerns. If accessibility is important, speak to a Travelisto advisor so we can match you with the most suitable room type and resort.
Is Wi‑Fi available at Mitsis Alexander The Great?
Yes, complimentary Wi‑Fi is available throughout the hotel, including in guest rooms and public areas, so you can stay connected whether you’re by the pool or relaxing on your balcony.
What is the typical dress code at the hotel?
Daytime is relaxed resort wear, but the hotel usually asks that beachwear is not worn in the main restaurant or bar areas. For dinner, smart-casual is recommended and gentlemen may be asked to wear long trousers in the à la carte restaurant. Exact guidelines can change, so it’s worth checking with reception on arrival.
