Sani Dunes , Halkidiki| Take the Family

Set on the beachfront, Sani Dunes is close to the private Sani Marina and is one of the smaller Sani hotels. Choose between a range of rooms and suites sleeping up to five, some with wonderful sea views. Sani Dunes also has a watersports center right on the beach.

If you're travelling with really little ones, Sani Resort really sets out to make your holiday as easy and special as possible. In addition to their OFSTED-standard crèches (the closest is a Porto Sani), they can arrange a private nanny and evening babysitting, they offer baby (and toddler) swimming lessons, they have created healthy menus for babies and children with Annabel Karmel and they can provide an array of baby/toddler equipment so that you have less to pack.

A big attraction at Sani Resort is all the quality academies they offer. Their Chelsea Football Academy is really popular with children and teens. They also have a Rafa Natal Tennis Academy and, for those looking for some adventure, there is the Bear Grylls Survival Academy. Other options include scuba diving, waterskiing, sailing and triathlon. And for those parents who want to relax and unwind - the Sani Dunes has a spa too.

A stay at Sani Resort combines luxury with such a huge choice of activities - you'll be spoilt for choice. They range from amazing sports facilities to outdoor gyms and their high-ropes Adventure Course in the trees to a long list of watersports. With so much on offer and great service, it's no wonder Sani Resort regularly wins awards for being one of the world's best family resorts or that many guests return year after year.

Childcare

Sani Dunes doesn't have on-site childcare but guests can use the crèche and kids' club at other hotels within the resort. The closest option is at Porto Sani.

The Sani Beach, Porto Sani and Sani Club each have a crèche and kids' club within the hotel, all run by the resort's experienced and caring Little Guests team. The crèches are run to the UK's OFSTED standards and fixed ratios of staff:children apply for each age group, therefore we recommend pre-booking spaces.

Sani Crèche - for children 4 months to 3 years (extra charge applies).

Sani Kids' Club - for children 4-12 years, the club is included in your holiday price and offers a varied program to suit the ages of the children. Activities may include mini-Olympics, picnics, parties and excursions within the resort.

Beach Childcare - Sani Resort has Little Guests staff at 5 of the beaches, offering 30-minute beach childcare sessions.

Ozone Club - for teenagers, this club is based at Sani Marina. It is for teens 13-17 years and provides a place to hang out as well as the option of activities such as archery, console games and volleyball.

In addition, the hotel can arrange private nannies and evening babysitting.
