“Oceanica Resort distinguishes itself with its farm-to-table ethos, bringing a welcome freshness to its dining; the sunsets alone are worth the visit, best enjoyed from their wide, relaxed beachfront, a refreshing alternative to the crowded Alona Beach. Between the cultural activities and the private villas, it's a place designed for both families and couples seeking more than just the typical beach getaway. It's a thoughtful approach to hospitality, one that I find genuinely appealing.”
