Just returned from the most amazing week at Daios Cove. Everything absolutely spot on - beautiful clean and flawlessly designed accommodation (we were staying in one of the Collection suites with Private Pool), which worked perfectly for our family of four. The Cove itself provides the perfect setting - with fabulous views and crystal clear waters. We were part of the Residents Club all inclusive package which was excellent - and were really impressed by the quality and variety of food and drinks in the a la carte and buffet restaurants. The kids particularly loved how easy it was to get to the beach, and the games room - as well as the kids mocktails! We found April a great time of year to go - as it wasn’t too busy but weather was great - between 21-23c everyday. We will be back!

We stayed at Daios Cove for a week on our first family holiday with our 5-month-old son. After doing a lot of research to find the right all-inclusive option, we settled on this resort and overall had a wonderful stay. We booked through British Airways, with our package (including flights) costing around £3,800. The service throughout our stay was excellent—nothing we asked for was ever too much trouble. We were provided with a steam steriliser and a comfortable travel cot in our room, which made things much easier with a baby. The food was consistently delicious, with plenty of dining options to choose from. All room service was included which meant we could have breakfast on the terrace and a couple of dinners too. One small regret was not realising until the last day that the Ocean restaurant was available for breakfast, which would have been a lovely alternative to the buffet. The resort is generally buggy-friendly, though getting around often requires using the funicular, which can mean a bit of waiting. Possibly trickier during high season. There were a few downsides for us. Unfortunately, the weather was terrible during our stay—rain, wind, and clouds all week. April is definitely a gamble! Although the pools are advertised as heated, they weren’t that warm. We had hoped to take our son swimming indoors (as we do regularly at home), but the indoor pool was too cold for him—around 25°C. The spa pool was the perfect temperature, but unfortunately, children aren't allowed. We had paid extra for a room with a private pool, imagining peaceful nap times by the water, but sadly the pool wasn’t heated and sat in the shade, so we didn’t get to use it at all. Lastly, while our room was very spacious, it felt quite dated and basic in terms of décor—worth noting if aesthetics are important to you. All in all we had a great holiday and would consider returning again.

Stayed as a family of four in October Half Term. Whilst windy on occasion, the weather was great for this time of year. We had booked a villa with pool and on arrival received the Wellness Villa. Our jaws dropped to the floor on entry-so amazing and then in the morning with the light of day, we could not believe our views, the size of the pool we had and everything. It was just amazing. We were on the all inclusive package which was very much worth it. We would have food and drinks delivered to the villa or eat out. The food delivered was exceptional, the food in the beach restaurant was also very good. We were not fond of the choices in the first floor restaurant but that may be down to just our personal choice. I never thought I would ever be in a holiday drinking free flow Veuve all day but this was honestly the case. There was not much on offer for teenagers in terms.of activities etc but if you want a week away of quality family time, this definitely offers it!

I landed at Daios Cove Saturday 12 July 2025 and still here. We have booked for 10 nights and wished we hadn't. I have asked to leave early and for the hotel to return my money for the days we don't want to stay but management have simply refused. I would not say this is a 5 star hotel. At best, I would give this hotel 2 stars. Service is incredibly slow. Their excuse is that they are at full occupancy. This should not detriment our stay. The buggy's that pick you up are always late. The funnicular's are hard work especially when you have 2 young children. I find most of the staff here don't want you here and are very dismissive. We are in a villa that is connected to other people's room which we were not told of at the time of booking / arriving. We have 2 young children and there are children either side of our connecting rooms which is unfair for both famillies. We have paid a lot of money to come here and I would say that the price does not reflect our stay. It is a lot of money to pay to come to what is at best a 2 star resort. We love Greece and came here upon recommendation but we would NEVER return nor recommend this hotel to any of our friends / family. Such a shame as were very excited to give DC a go. Not one for our family i'm afraid.

We arrived late evening on 29th June to be met by the hotels VIP airport transfer service which was the perfect stress free way to start and set the standard for a wonderful week at Daios Cove. We found the breakfast and evening buffet to be excellent (as well as the other restaurants) with an incredible variety of quality options each day and owe special gratitude to Kostas, the executive chef, who personally ensured our 14 year old who has a nut allergy was completely taken care of. Kostas and his team really did go above and beyond and help make it a great experience. The Guest relations team were also incredibly friendly and helpful as well as the cleaning staff in our experience. As we were departing you could feel the resort getting closer to capacity and perhaps understand the concerns that some guests had about sunbed availability around the pool and on the beach even but we were up early enough not to experience this ourselves. The teams running the watersports activities were also extremely friendly and professional and the gym excellent for those wanting to excercise. Overall Daios Cove is a supeb, well run resort that tries it's best to please it's customers and in our experience very much succeeded. We'll definitely be going back

My family and I chose this resort for several compelling reasons — and we’re glad we did! To start with, the daycare service for children exceeded our expectations. It’s reassuring to know that a team of attentive and caring professionals is looking after your little ones, allowing parents to relax and enjoy the holiday. Another standout feature is the beach — truly a slice of paradise. Swimming in the crystal-clear sea and strolling along the soft, sandy shoreline feels like pure luxury. The resort staff go above and beyond to make guests feel welcomed and comfortable. Every detail, including the plush, cozy towels (perfect for wrapping up twice!) adds to the sense of indulgence. And of course, the food deserves a special mention! The resort offers a diverse and generous selection of dishes to satisfy pescatarians, meat lovers, vegans, and vegetarians alike. We had the pleasure of meeting Chef Konstantinos Mandylas — not only a culinary talent but also a delightful personality with a sharp sense of humor and impeccable taste! All in all, we’re thoroughly enjoying our stay and making the most of every moment. Highly recommended for families looking for luxurious relaxation, comfort, and an out of this world gastronomy! A solid 5 stars resort!

Chaos can only describe this place. We are currently at Daios and want to leave since its no where near the 5-star hotel we thought it was. Asked to speak to the manager since our biggest issue was the crazy breakfast buffet (the worst place to start your day) but manager could not in any way att all help us - what a manager! There are 3 restaurants to eat breakfast but since we are ”only” half board we are only allowed to eat at the awful buffet.
