Daios Cove

Sleek and contemporary, the design cleverly blends into the rugged backdrop and every bedroom has glittering views of the Aegean Sea. Apart from the deluxe rooms there are also beautiful suites and spacious villas with more than one bedroom which can offer an ideal stay for families, rating Daios Cove as one of the best resorts in Crete for families.

There are six restaurants to choose from at this luxury resort. Over the years, Daios Cove has built a reputation as a foodie favourite, and now offers its Resident’s Club, a comprehensive all-inclusive option available to anyone staying in a suite or villa. It covers the lot, from beach bar snacks, unlimited ice creams and cocktails, to three-course gourmet dinners, 24-hour room service and a wine list that includes Veuve Clicquot. Inclusive luxury at its best.

Choice is of the essence at Daios Cove, and if the children are in tow, you’ve just struck family gold. There’s everything from a gorgeous seawater infinity pool, tennis, and a top-notch kids’ club to water sports galore (children as young as four can learn to water-ski). For adults who need time to breathe, there’s yoga, Pilates, a far-too-tempting spa menu and six restaurants.
