Where the Forest
Meets the Sea
Garden Oasis Residence sits at the edge of Stavros — a village where plane trees cast their shade over cobblestone paths and the Aegean opens up just five minutes from your door.
A Village Rooted in Nature
Stavros is one of the most beloved seaside villages along the Thessaloniki coastline — a place where slow mornings, seafront tavernas, and plane-tree-scented evenings define the pace of life. Nestled between the green hills of central Macedonia and the calm waters of the Thermaic Gulf, it offers a rare combination of natural beauty and genuine Greek hospitality.
Garden Oasis Residence takes its name from the lush plane trees that surround the property — century-old giants whose canopy creates a cool, shaded retreat even on the warmest summer days. The sound of rustling leaves and distant waves becomes your everyday backdrop.
The village centre is just a short stroll away, with a waterfront promenade lined with cafes, tavernas, and small local shops. In the summer months, Stavros comes alive with visitors from Thessaloniki and beyond — yet it retains the unhurried character of an authentic Greek coastal village, far from the crowds of the more commercial resorts.
Whether you're here for a weekend escape, a longer summer stay, or simply a base from which to explore the wider region, Stavros rewards you with simplicity, beauty, and calm.
Easy to Reach, Easy to Leave Behind
Stavros is exceptionally well connected for a coastal village of its size. Whether you're arriving from Thessaloniki city centre, the airport, or a neighbouring town, the journey is straightforward and the road scenic.
By Car
Take the Thessaloniki–Kavala highway east and exit at Stavros. The drive takes approximately 60 minutes and is well-signposted throughout. Free parking is available directly at the property.

Thessaloniki "Makedonia" Airport (SKG) is approximately 75 minutes away by car. Taxi, transfer, and car rental options are all available on arrival.
By Bus (ΚΤΕΛ)
Regular ΚΤΕΛ buses from Thessaloniki central station stop in Stavros. Journey time is approximately 60–90 minutes depending on the service.

Everything You Need, Close at Hand
Stavros sits at the gateway to some of northern Greece's most rewarding destinations. Within an hour's drive you can explore ancient ruins, dramatic coastlines, vibrant city life, and unspoilt natural landscapes.
Stavros & Milies Beach
Crystal-clear Aegean waters with organised beach facilities and secluded coves. Perfect for swimming, snorkelling, and long sunset walks along the shore.
Thessaloniki
Greece's cultural capital — 60 minutes away. Explore the White Tower, Aristotelous Square, Ladadika, Modiano Market, and some of the best food in the country.
Amphipolis
One of Greece's most significant archaeological sites, home to the famous Kasta Tomb and the Lion of Amphipolis. A fascinating half-day trip 50 minutes away.
Kavala
A stunning coastal city with a Venetian castle, Ottoman aqueduct, and a lively harbour — plus ferry connections to the island of Thassos. A perfect day trip.
Stavros Nature & Promenade
Century-old plane trees shade the riverbanks and promenades right at your doorstep. Ideal for morning walks, cycling, or simply breathing in the fresh coastal air.
Local Tavernas
Fresh grilled fish, local meze, and cold Mythos beer served just steps from the beach. Authentic Northern Greek cuisine at its most honest and unhurried.
The Beach at Your Doorstep
Stavros Beach is one of the most beautiful and accessible beaches on the Thessaloniki Riviera. A long arc of fine golden sand bordered by crystal-clear shallow water, it is ideal for families, couples, and solo travellers alike. The beach is organised with sun loungers and umbrellas available for hire, as well as beach bars for refreshments throughout the day.
Just a short drive further, Milies Beach offers a quieter, more secluded alternative — a favourite among locals who prefer a more natural setting. The surrounding coastline is dotted with small coves and rocky outcrops perfect for snorkelling, paddleboarding, and evening walks as the sun dips below the Olympus horizon.
Thessaloniki: Culture, Food & History
Greece's second city is within easy reach for a day trip — and one visit is rarely enough. Thessaloniki is a city that wears its history openly, from Byzantine churches and Roman ruins to Ottoman bazaars and contemporary street art.
Stroll along Nikis Avenue with the sea to your left and the White Tower ahead. Explore Aristotelous Square — the grand piazza at the heart of the city — before diving into the labyrinthine streets of Ladadika and Modiano Market, where the aromas of spices, fresh fish, and grilled meats fill the air.
The city's food scene is legendary across Greece. From the iconic bougatsa and trigona at Panorama to the seafood meze of the harbour tavernas, eating in Thessaloniki is an experience in itself. Add UNESCO-listed Byzantine monuments, a thriving bar and café culture, and the annual International Film Festival — and you have a day that barely scratches the surface.
