The plot
Legal status: two adjoining farm parcels outside the settlement, on a rural dirt road
We show the area, not the exact plot. Ask us for the listing.
The rule
Outside the plan a plot over 4,000 m² takes a house, not a hotel. A glamping site with light structures runs under the Ministry of Tourism’s five-year Glamping sign, one fixed unit per 1,000 m².
Law 4759/2020, art. 33: outside the plan, land is buildable from 4,000 m²; 186 m² for the first 4,000 m² plus 0.018 of the rest. The listing puts it at around 400 m² of house for the two parcels, no hotel. Tourist installations on 4,000 m² or more run at a 0.2 coefficient with a site-suitability approval from the Ministry of Tourism.
Law 4688/2020: the Glamping sign, valid five years, for hotels and campsites outside the plan with light structures; domes are named explicitly.
Ministerial Decision 26716/2025: up to 4 beds plus 2 for children per structure, at least 10 m between structures, at least 50% vegetation, 4- and 5-star categories.
Ministerial Decision 14129/2015, art. 2 and 4: at least 6,000 m², average slope up to 10%, a side of at least 50 m; fixed units up to one per 1,000 m²; at least 10% of pitches for tents.

Capacity
Eighteen stremmata allow eighteen fixed units. Eighteen domes at 10 m spacing take about 7,200 m², 40% of the land, with two tent pitches for the 10% rule. The slope works for the guests: each row looks over the one below, towards the sea.

The land does not become five times more expensive. The site on it does, because a working hospitality asset is valued by its income: operating result divided by a rate of return. At 7% it is worth more, at 10% less. The slider is there for that reason. Everything on this page is indicative, with ranges, and dated.
A dome with a pool in Crete sells at €374 a night, luxury suites with pools in Chalkidiki at €389. A glazed dome with a sea view near Rethymno justifies €280 at 50% in the longest season in Greece.

Before we offer
Slope from a topographic survey: the land is shaped like an amphitheatre and the rule asks for an average of up to 10%, or terracing at the operator’s cost.
The two parcels must count as one site of at least 6,000 m². And the road: Council of State case law restricts off-plan building on plots that face only a rural road. We check how both affect the glamping file.
Water and electricity: the listing mentions neither. Forest map, archaeology layer, site-suitability approval and Glamping sign through the Ministry of Tourism.
The dome is classified as a movable structure. The rules differ from country to country, and we confirm which ones apply to your site. More in the article on permits.
Yes. The dome is modular: it can be taken apart and assembled again on a new site.
The site needs to be levelled and reachable by truck. The platform, installation and delivery depend on the terrain, so we quote them separately after we know the location.
Send us the plot number and the country. We check the rule, estimate the capacity and send back an indicative model within a week.
