Unveiling the luxurious escape at Domes Noruz Kassandra

A beach club with rooms

Indeed, describing itself as a ‘beach club with rooms’, Domes Noruz Kassandra is a fun, youthful resort with in-room mixology tools for making your own cocktails and spa-style bathrooms with ‘maxi bars’. There are just 156 rooms and suites, all with a terrace or balcony. The upgraded Haute Living suites come with extra luxuries, including complimentary half-board dining, access to a members-only lounge, a dedicated WhatsApp concierge, and private check-in.

Common to all Domes Resorts is award-winning, minimalist architecture and design and a passion for detail, from the regional delicacies (ranging from classic local dishes to haute cuisine) to the wellness offerings, which at Kassandra include a state-of-the-art open-air gym, body conditioning, Pilates, sunrise yoga sessions, and personal training.

A wealth of wellness

There's an exceptional spa here, with treatments blending ancient Greek rituals and contemporary healing. They include the Gaea and Uranus Body Massage, based on the mythological battle that took place in Halkidiki between Zeus and the children of Gaea (Mother Earth) and Uranus. The ritual includes a deep tissue massage using a blend of rich Greek botanicals such as rosemary, lemons, and eucalyptus, preceded by a deeply exfoliating carob seed body scrub.

There’s also the Back in Time Hippocratic Therapeutic Massage, based on the massage principles of the Greek physician considered to be the father of modern medicine. The treatment focuses on the head and neck. It begins with a dry brushing of the body and ends with a mist of kefir tea water to awaken the senses.

Unforgettable dining

When it comes to dining, Gustatio presents a copious breakfast buffet based on locally sourced ingredients, a creative all-day buffet of Mediterranean cuisine, and live cooking shows. Then there’s Topos, an award-winning beach bar and restaurant serving modern Greek seafood by executive chef Dionysios Pliatsikas, taking you on a culinary journey to some of the loveliest islands in the Aegean, accompanied by a carefully curated wine list combining global labels with bottles from Halkidiki vineyards.

And there’s also the Raw Gastro Bar, an elegant evening cocktail and champagne bar, serving ceviche and raw finger foods. Among its most popular dishes are the signature cured cod ceviche with its bright citrus notes and a fresh pop of coriander sprouts, and the seabass and scallops tartare.

The location of the resort is just fabulous too – on one of Greece’s loveliest Blue Flag beaches, with views of the Sithonia peninsula and on, clear days, monastic Mount Athos. It’s also within easy reach of Kassandra’s all-day beach club district, Kallithea’s nightlife district with its global DJs and street food, and traditional villages with authentic local seafood restaurants.
