Daios Cove is the word, especially if you are looking for the perfect Wellness break without compromising on your precious family holiday time together.
It’s very difficult for any luxury resort to marry the needs of family travel with a deep and immersive wellness. Many try but fail, especially with peak season stays, however Daios Cove triumphs, and you can go as deep as you wish or not at all - you make the decision.
It’s an easy one hour transfer from Crete’s main airport at Heraklion, and the resort is crafted into the cliff side with knock out sea-views over Vathi Bay from every room in the resort. Being family-friendly, you can expect this ravishing resort to have everything on tap and to tick all the boxes – six restaurants from simple, cool sexy beach to high quality dining - tick. Great facilities for the younger ones - tick, with a Children’s Club and child-minding on tap - tick. A lovely beach location to swim and enjoy the sea breeze – tick tick tick.
There is a permanent Doctor on site - the very affable and understated, yet highly knowledgeable Dr Masood. After a consultation Dr Masood will tailor a bespoke programme for your needs. There is also a great nutritionist George, who will give you helpful tips on how to navigate the sumptuous restaurants. There is a cryotherapy chamber, which we love and which is brilliant for those recovering from injuries, tailored vitamin infusions, a calming water circuit and a great Spa.
There is sound healing, and colonics performed under the Doctor’s supervision but it is the staff who makes Daios Cove soar above its competitors - they are exceptional, and are delighted to help you on your journey to good health. There are so many layers to what they offer, so book a proper stay here – your body and mind will certainly thank you for it.
Please note: The property will be closed between 03 November 2024 and 10 April 2025
