Greece's Sithonia Beach Club at Porto Carras has affiliated with RCI.

Located on the west coast of Halkidiki, Sithonia Beach Club at Porto Carras is part of the mixed-use Porto Carras Grand Resort which includes four luxury hotels, a private casino and a spa.

Possessing nine kilometres of private, Blue Flag-quality beaches, Porto Carras is a popular resort especially among citizens of Greece's second city Thassaloniki, an hour's drive away.

The area features 25 secluded coves, a private marina with moorings for 315 yachts and the largest organic vineyard in Greece.

Timeshare accommodation of Sithonia Beach Club will comprise double rooms in the Sithonia Thalasso and Spa Hotel, which offers 24-hour room service, wireless internet hotspots, children’s clubs, a business centre and shops. One-week intervals over a lease period of 25 years are on sale for €15,000 and buyers receive discounted pricing on many of the resort’s activities.

Christos Zikos, board member of developer company Technical Olympic Group, said: "We are very excited to bring our owners the opportunities that RCI offers.

"RCI offers our owners access to more than 4,000 terrific vacation resorts around the world, including everything from campgrounds to castles. We’re glad we could provide this service to our community."

Jonathan Back, managing director, RCI, EMEAI, added: "This beautiful resort brings a lively and varied experience to our members, both in terms of what the resort itself has to offer, as well as in its prime location on the Sithonia peninsula.

"Its recently renovated golf course benefits from a great climate which, combined with the resort’s many other attractions, makes this a fantastic year-round family resort."
