Daios Cove Luxury Resort & Villas
GreeceDaios Cove Resort resembles a natural amphitheater that descends to a private sandy beach offering sublime views, a wealth of dining options, and a spa. Highlights including Agios Nikolaos and Knossos Minoan ruin are just a ten-minute drive away.
Its 39 villas and 251 luxury rooms and suites are all generously proportioned with crisp minimalist interiors and large en suites with marble finishes. Many residences have options for private saltwater pools and sunny terraces. Despite its size, the resort is very low-key, and friendly service lends a distinct village ambiance.
Indulge in a buffet breakfast served at Pangea restaurant followed by seafood dishes at rustic-style Greek Taverna. Refined dining at Ocean restaurant sees sophisticated Mediterranean cuisine served against a shimmering Aegean backdrop.
After a day spent on the water, a range of rejuvenating treatments at GOCO Spa offers the perfect respite.

Daios Cove is the ultimate family-friendly hotel, spread across a sandy cove not far from Agios Nikolaos on the East of the island. All ages are looked after at the Daios Kids’ Club, which is free for four – 11-year-olds, and a creche which will take little ones from four months old. The private sandy beach is beautifully protected and calm shallow waters for children to swim. All four relaxed restaurants have a kids’ menu. Once the children are in bed, the Beach House restaurant is not to be missed with its Mediterranean and Asian influenced dishes.
