The TETYK is likely to be the only welfare fund, which is the owner of a hotel infrastructure outside Cyprus too. Our 35-apartment hotel complex at the Keramoti seafront in Kavalla, a fantastic area in the North Greece is another option for spending one’s holidays outside Cyprus at a very low price.
The site chosen by our Trade Union for the construction of its Hotel Apartments Complex is located in a privileged area within the Keramoti Municipality’s boundaries, at the crossroads between the forest and the sea, which is only a few minutes away from our accommodation premises. It is kilometres away from the sandy beach with an infrastructure of sun umbrellas, sunbeds and refreshment tents and stalls are available to the guests to enjoy swimming in the crystalline waters of the area with a view to the Thasopoula Island. All the facilities like taverns, restaurants, clubs, shops and supermarkets are accessible at a shouting distance from our Hotel Apartments Complex.
The TETYK Keramoti Hotel Apartments Complex is a complex of 2 two-storey buildings with 39 apartments, built in compliance with all the modern standards. All the apartments are comfortable and modern with all the necessary facilities. They have their own small kitchen, where the guests may cook their meals if they wish so. There is also a common multiple-use room, which may be used for seminars, conferences or further events.
Keramoti is built on the delta of the river Nestos, in the southeast of Kavalla and opposite the Thasos Island wrapped in green. It is 10 kilometres away from the Kavalla international airport «Alexander the Great», 40 kilometres from Kavalla and Xanthi, 14 kilometres away from Chrysoupoli and only 6 nautical miles from Thasos. All the above areas are easily accessible by regular bus-transport. The TETYK management made arrangements with local car rentals companies and the colleagues may rent a car from the airport at a low price. The access to Thasos is equally easy as a ferry leaves every hour and the journey lasts approximately half an hour. During July-August period there are direct flights from the Kavalla airport to Larnaca but the guests may fly from Larnaca to the Thessalonica international airport “Makedonia” and to the Alexandroupoli international airport “Democritus”.
The Keramoti area has plenty of fish and this is why many of the local people are professional fishers. Boats arrive daily at the fishing port in the area, with their fishing nets full of every species of fish, many of which become the same day a delicious dish in the picturesque taverns of the area. The taverns’ guests enjoy the fish dishes accompanied by retsina and ouzo. Mussel farming is massively developed in the area, which is the reason for the abundance of shellfish at very low prices.
Despite the Keramoni area’s beautiful scenery, the nature is relatively pure and wild with not any mass tourism strong influence. So the area’s picturesque character is far from being altered. Further to peace offered to tourists, the much lower prices compared to the most renowned tourism destinations, is a high asset.
The fact that the area is an excursion destination, as there are many attractions and sites around to visit, is another big advantage of the region. The river Nestos with its enchanting wetlands is located in a big proximity and it is a unique attraction for the naturalists but for others too. Yet, one can easily go to Xanthi and visit the traditional market of this town in Thrace. The amphitheatre-style built town of Kavalla with its beautiful port, only 25 minutes by road away from the town, while less than one hour and a half is sufficient time for a guest to reach the capital of the North Greece, the so called “Nymph of the Thermaic Gulf”.
Other favourite destinations to the colleagues are: Lake Vistonida in Porto Lagos, the archaeological site of Philippi, the Pangaion Hills, Cave Sources of Aggitis River, the Thasos ancient Theatre, the Alistratis Cave etc.
Keramoti is also recommended throughout the year for holidays, because, apart from its amazing beaches, the Pangaion Hills with its ski resort for the ski enthusiasts but also for the hunters are located within shouting distance. There are a lot of great areas to hunt around with plenty of game.
