Imagine your kids, wide-eyed and wonderstruck, far from screens and routines. It’s not fantasy—it’s what happens when you choose the right hotel in Greece’s hidden corners.

19

These aren’t typical resorts. Picture working farms where children feed chickens and plant seeds, or mountain retreats where family hikes lead to stunning vistas. Here, ‘bored’ isn’t in the vocabulary and ‘adventure’ is the word of the day.

Wake up to birdsong and misty mountain views. Spend your days learning traditional crafts, foraging for wild herbs, or stargazing around a campfire. These hotels don’t just offer a place to sleep—they provide experiences that bring families closer.

The best part? These natural havens welcome you year-round, each season offering its own magic. Ready to trade city noise for cricket symphonies? To swap screen time for green time? Let’s explore where memories are made and nature takes center stage.

Best Hotels In Nature Kids Love / Crystal Mountain

In mountainous Nafpaktia, surrounded by a forest of fir and chestnut trees, this beautiful hotel becomes a paradise for young children and a haven of relaxation for adults. Located in the picturesque village of Ano Chora, at an altitude of 1,100 metres and just 52 kilometres from Nafpaktos, Crystal Mountain is a well organised winter resort that offers guests a series of events almost every weekend of the year, promising to keep you busy for days on end.

Three and a half hours from Athens, Crystal Mountain has extensive facilities including sports grounds, two indoor/outdoor playgrounds and a vegetable garden where you and your kids can discover the “secrets” of growing vegetables. The hotel also organises fun workshops in cooking, pastry-making, gardening and painting. At the same time, weather permitting, the action moves outdoors, where you can enjoy organised walks in the woods, bike rides or picnics in the countryside.

The breakfast served at Crystal Mountain Restaurant is both flavoursome and filling, and on certain days of the year you can also indulge in an amazing buffet brunch before you leave. The restaurant offers an economical menu for lunch and dinner, as well as a children’s menu with foods that children will love.

The breakfast buffet is rich, filled with handmade delicacies that are different every day, and there are always plenty of vegan options. In summer, children can spend hours playing in the resort’s pool, while a lending library operates year-round for bookworms who enjoy reading amidst nature.

In Zarouchla, Achaia, the small hotel complex Nymfes Estate welcomes its guests in traditional wooden houses that have a fireplace in their living room as well as a fully equipped kitchen and fantastic views. The estate offers visitors carefree relaxation combined with adventurous activities intimately close to nature. For those who prefer to spend a few hours relaxing in their rooms, all the cottages have a living room with a fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, an en-suite bathroom, a large bed and stunning views, as well as a TV and DVD player.

After a fresh, tasty breakfast served daily in the hotel’s restaurant, playtime begins in the green spaces surrounding the estate.

Amfikaia Farm, Tirothea

Sixteen very comfortable stone cottages, each with its own fireplace and beautiful views of the estate’s greenery, form the central setting of the beautiful Amfikaia Farm, a hotel that inspires its young visitors acknowledge and enjoy the value of rural life and realise how important it is for all of us to be active in protecting the environment and animals. At the farm, you’ll be able to get close to Thessalian horses (an endangered species) and taste products freshly picked from the fields surrounding the hotel. At the same time, the farm’s huge garden serves as an alternative playground where children can learn the “secrets” of farming, gardening and the importance of a proper, balanced diet.

Located just two hours from Athens, Amfikaia Farm offers the opportunity to enjoy outdoor action at its football pitch and a swimming pool that is designed like a lake, filled with crystal clear water from the springs of Mount Parnassus, making it the perfect starting point for those who love excursions in the mountains. From here you can go on long walks in the countryside or cycle along the slopes of Mount Parnassos.
