The pool
Why this pool made the list
Floor-to-ceiling windows run down one side of Anemolia's pool hall, so the Delphi valley is right there while you swim. The pool is indoors and open all year, heated to around 27°C from late October to May, set under a timber-beamed ceiling between stone-clad pillars, with a shallow end and loungers lined up along the glass.
Think of it as a place for a leisurely swim: it's free to use, towels are provided and all ages are welcome. A sauna and a fully equipped fitness centre sit alongside, and when the day winds down the restaurant has an open fireplace going and homemade food on. Winter brings skiers from the nearby resort and summer brings hikers and cyclists, and the pool suits both.

The stay
Beyond the pool
Anemolia sits on the outskirts of Arachova, on the Delfon national road, looking over the Delphi valley and Parnassos. Think of it as a base rather than a village hotel: the free shuttle to Arachova only runs on winter weekends, so the rest of the time you'll want a car. Parking on site is free.
Rooms are spacious, with private balconies, and the buffet breakfast is included. Families are well looked after, with family rooms, a kids' club and an indoor play area, and children of any age are welcome. Pets can come too, on request and at no extra charge.
In winter the nearby ski resort is the draw: there's ski storage on site, and ski school for an additional charge. In summer the area is good for biking, hiking and horse riding.

Tall glass walls frame the main pool at Skamnos, so you swim lengths with pine trees and the Parnassos mountainside just outside. It's an indoor saltwater pool, heated and open all year, under a white timber roof, with lane lines on the tiles, a shallow end and loungers along the windows. A second indoor pool sits alongside.
Skylights in a pitched white timber roof throw squares of sunlight onto the water at Santa Marina, and stone walls and wood-framed windows run around the pool hall. The pool itself is large, indoors, heated and open all year, with a view out and loungers set against the stone.
Blue mosaic in a chequerboard pattern covers the floor of Ellinon Thea's indoor pool, with a dolphin picked out in tiles and gently curving steps down into the shallow end. White curtains soften the walls, loungers line the edge, and a separate plunge pool sits alongside. It's right in Arachova village, open all year and free to use.
