Location: Greece, Halkidiki

We chose July 29th as the arrival day for a 7-day stay for our example.
5* Halkidiki Part II - Price Wars
The 194 € charged by Alia Palace for a 7-day stay in the heart of summer with BB is enough to secure the first place in the competitiveness index of Hotel Insider.

Second by a small margin (97%) is Sani Beach whose €630 for a Sea View Double in the UK makes it irresistible given its high popularity.

In third place (94%) the competitively priced Avaton Luxury Beach Resort - Relais & Châteaux (€225 BB), rises 11 places above its initial ranking and earns a place among the protagonists.

In fourth place (91%) Porto Carras (88%) with UK at €377. followed by Acrotel Hotels & Resorts Athena Residence (88%) at 477€ with BB

In general, we observe that as soon as prices were entered, the long distances that existed in the initial ranking were neutralized due to the fact that competition is fierce. Sani Beach, due to its specific gravity, sets the standard of the weighted average at quite high levels (606 € for July 29) and those units that exceed it (Ikos Olivia, Ikos Oceania, Ajul) etc. are mainly because they sell FB or AI.

We were also talking about the absence of Partner Offer in the previous post, it seems that we looked at it and in the latest price update we found that the Partner Offer virus hit some units of Sani (Ikos Olivia, Sani Dunes, Porto Sani). Let someone look at it...

In the third and last post for Halkidiki we will compare prices and market availability for different LOS.
