100%I will definitely return to Daios Cove!
I found my stay at Daios Cove to have met all my expectations and more. Truly a magnificent environment for those who are looking for good views, a high level of service, comfortable accommodation, lovely facilities to relax in and the best food! In addtion, I found the resort to be family friendly whilst also catering to singles like me. I would definitely return to this resort in the future - I had a wonderful time!

Great hotel, very high level of finish and service at every level. From the minute you arrive to the time you check out you are treated like royalty.
The beach is great, the pool is good and the dining options are good (however, we ate outside the hotel most nights).
I would definitely consider this hotel if I come back to Crete.

80%Would recommend Daios Cove to friends and family.
Luxurious hotel in tranquil surroundings. Enjoyed our stay in Daios Cove but would have been perfect if our room with a sea view actually had a sea view! The resort is beautiful and the staff are nice.

If you’re looking for a relaxing holiday and a range of services and facilities in a typical Mediterranean style then you’ll love this hotel. With its 300 rooms, the Daios Cove is one of the larger hotels in Crete, but its sprawling resort-style set-up means that it doesn’t jar with the landscape at all. Its buildings are dotted up the hillside directly above the bay of Agios Nikolaos and offer far-reaching Mediterranean Sea views. Guests have a wide range of rooms to choose from, as well as a modern spa and several restaurants to enjoy. All of this is complemented by a really friendly and professional team of staff. The only difficult decision you’ll have to make is whether you prefer the magical infinity pool or the hotel’s own beach.
Luxury hotel: Romantic charm & excellent amenities for couples and families
The room options at the Daios Cove range from luxurious double rooms with spacious living areas and a private terrace (50sqm in total) to the family villa with three bedrooms and a huge outdoor area including a private swimming pool (180sqm in total). The public areas are finished off with a luxurious flair and include the Ocean Restaurant (gourmet Italian cuisine) and a stylishly furnished pool area. For getting about the resort quickly and easily, hop in the Club Car.
Beach hotel: Bay of paradise
Just below the hotel is a fantastic beach with bright, fine sand nestled within a small rocky bay. Here you’ll find comfortable beach loungers under thatched umbrellas, exclusively for hotel guests.
Food & drink: Delicious themed buffets & Mediterranean cuisine à la carte
The day starts with a varied breakfast buffet. If you book a villa or a room with a terrace, you can also have breakfast brought to your room for you to enjoy in the sunshine. For lunch and dinner there are 3 restaurants to choose from: The Pangea Restaurant offers changing themed buffets for guests with half or full board. The Ocean Restaurant serves Italian à la carte gourmet cuisine. And the Taverna Restaurant offers Greek specialties with a focus on freshly caught Mediterranean fish. There’s also a beautiful open air lounge bar by the pool which serves snacks, cold drinks and cocktails during the day.
Leisure & sports: Wellness, yoga & watersports
The sports facilities at the Daios Cove Luxury Resort & Villas include several tennis courts and a fitness center with regular yoga and Pilates classes. The hotel spa offers massages, wellness rituals and beauty treatments using products by Anne Semonin. Here you’ll also find several Spa Suites, a sauna and two indoor swimming pools, all with a really nice atmosphere and plenty of contemporary Mediterranean charm. The hotel also offers you the chance to arrange a variety of water sports including sailing, surfing and diving.
Location: Mediterranean Sea always in sight
The Daios Cove Luxury Resort & Villas is situated on a ridge directly overlooking a rocky bay in Crete, Greece, about 7 kilometers south-east of Agios Nikolaos. Its bungalows and buildings are laid out in a terrace style up the hillside which means each of them boasts stunning views over Mirabello Bay.
