Hotel Food Reviews
For rent housing in the complex Edem Holiday Club 2 * with breakfast. Unfortunately, there are generally not very good reviews about the food in the hotel’s buffet on the network. The food in the hotel's dining room is fresh, but so monotonous that many tourists often simply prefer to have breakfast in other places - in a cafe on the coast. If desired, this complex can be ordered for a fee and lunch. However, they are, unfortunately, quite expensive.
Breakfast at the hotel is served as a buffet. If desired, guests can take granola, cheese, milk, eggs, sausage, olives.

Vegetables and fruits are not served in the dining room. But you can always buy them at the mini-markets located next to the hotel.
Hotel Beach Reviews
The hotel is located Edem Holiday Club (Olympiaki Akti, Greece), as already mentioned, right on the beach. Its guests need to go to the beach no more than 2 minutes. In order to get to the sea, residents just need to cross a country road. This, of course, is very convenient especially for the elderly and tourists with children.
Actually, the hotel's beach itself has earned relatively good reviews from vacationers. The sea here is always very clean and, most importantly, warm. The entrance to it is very gentle. Vacationers need to go up to the waist in the water for about 20-30 meters to reach the depth. Of course, it is very convenient, especially for bathing children.
Sun loungers and umbrellas on this beach are paid. But many vacationers simply use those that are installed by the pool. After all, it is located just a couple of steps from the coast.
Actually, the coastline itself opposite the Edem Holiday Club 2 * hotel, unfortunately, is not too clean. No cigarette butts and pieces of paper here. But, unfortunately, in the sea itself, a lot of algae always floats in this place. They are thrown ashore, and they are mixed with sand. Of course, no one removes algae on the hotel beach. Therefore, the coastline does not look very neat here.
Available Attractions
Reviews of the Edem Holiday Club 2 * hotel on the network are good also because here, in addition to everything else, there is also a small tour desk. Of course, for many tourists, and especially for beginners, its presence can be very convenient. However, experienced tourists are advised to purchase excursions not in the hotel itself, but in Paralia, which takes less than 20 minutes to reach from the hotel. Here, various kinds of miniatures can be bought almost 2 times cheaper than in a hotel. In Katerini and Soloniki, experienced tourists advise beginners to take a taxi or just take a bus on their own.
Also, some vacationers recommend that guests simply rent a car for a sightseeing trip from a hotel guide on a security deposit of 150 euros. In this case, it will be possible to visit such interesting places in Greece as Meteora, Platamonas, Olympus, etc. And, of course, the residents of the hotel should definitely go to Athens. This city is located quite far from Pieria. But if you wish, you can always cheaply book a room at night in any of the Athens hotels.
