Laid-back Luxury in Crete

Daios Cove, Crete
Daios Cove, Crete

An antidote to beige buffets, plastic fantastic waterslides, and garish mascots, Crete’s luxurious Daios Cove is reframing the notion of a family-focused All Inclusive, where fine dining and top-notch service is served alongside first-class childcare (welcoming infants as young as 4 months). Ripping up the rulebook, the reinvention of the high rise is the first traditional trope architecturally triumphant Daios Cove turns on its head. Cubist villas and rooms, many with private pools, are scattered around a private cove with soul-stirring sea views from every angle. Parents are treated to a wealth of wellness at the world-class spa, to-fly-for gastronomic dining and a constant supply of cocktails in hand. Tiny Travellers will appreciate the safely sloping sands and welcoming waters on the beach, children’s cinema screenings and shaded outdoor playground. It’s a win for all.
