Into the Silver Dawn

Into the Silver Dawn: Macedonia Central

Perched right above the beautiful Toroneos Bay in Halkidiki, this stylish villa is the perfect getaway for two. Not only are panoramic views a given here, but with a private pool, breezy balcony and sunny terrace yours to enjoy, you'll be able to revel in the scenery morning, noon and night. Get the day started with an alfresco breakfast in the fresh air, then take it easy for the rest of the afternoon, lounging by the pool and swimming in the clear blue water. Come evening, share a bottle of wine on the balcony and watch the sunset before making your way inside to the minimal and sleek living space for some pre-bedtime telly.

Even better, this villa is part of a resort with a whole slew of activities to keep you busy, from bike riding and poolside yoga classes to massages, boat trips and snorkelling. The on-site restaurant means dinner is sorted, while the communal gym ensures you'll never miss a workout. And we can't forget about the exclusive beach just for resort residents. Private and serene, there's nothing better than laying on the sand and splashing in the waves on your very own stretch of the shore – sounds like the quintessential Grecian holiday to us.
