The Bay Hotel & Suites in Βασιλικός 291 00, open MayAugust.

Guests arrive at The Bay Hotel & Suites to find themselves on Vassilikos's coastline, where the Ionian Sea becomes your ceremony backdrop and the hotel's 40+ rooms transform into a private village for your wedding party.

From the moment attendees check in, they experience a seamless flow between accommodation and celebration—sleeping steps away from where they danced.

The combination of direct beachfront access, on-site dining, and comprehensive guest amenities means your wedding operates as a self-contained event rather than a scattered logistics puzzle.

This hotel is quite literally heaven on Earth. It isn't just a place to come to stay, it is a lifetime experience. I have nothing be praise for the staff, every single one of them made our experience one that we will never forget. The attention to detail and hospitality was sublime. The rooms are spacious, comfy and clean, the restaurant, pool bar and breakfast is 5* with a wide selection to choose from, having something new for eachday. The private beach is the most luxurious part, something you'd normally only get if you were paying tens of thousands. it is dedicated to the hotel residents with big comfy beds dotted around for your own privacy. Beautiful golden sand, gorgeous mountain views, watersports closeby if needed. Calm, clear, blue water. I booked this hotel to get engaged, the staff were so helpful and thoughtful setting up a private area for the big question and arranging flowers, taking pictures etc. They were genuinally excited and happy for us. A big thank you to the entire reception team, Maria, and Amelia at the poolside. The hotel interior was modern and calming with a slight artsy style, very in theme with luxury Greek holiday. My only suggestion would be to have some artworks around to further lift the aesthetic. There was a small hotel shop which was useful for essentials and snacks, the hotel is a drive away from any major towns or there is a short walk to a small strip witha. few restaurants and shop. We stayed from 23-30th September and the weather was great other than 2 rainy days at the end. Thank you to The Bay Hotel & Suites, we will be staying here again!
