Which Ikos Resort is the best?

There’s no single answer to which Ikos resort is the best, as each one is designed for a different travel style — from food-focused escapes to multi-generational family holidays.

Foodies can rejoice with Dine Around programmes that allow guests to sample the culinary delights of the surrounding area – found across all Ikos resorts.

Those who like a little adventure to complement hours of sunbathing and relaxation will be amazed by the Local Drive Adventure, also available at all Ikos resorts, where you can get behind the wheel of a MINI Countryman or obtain a Culture Pass to explore the local vicinity. 

Couples in search of relaxation will fall in love all over again, helped along by rooms with private pools, soothing Anne Semonin products in the Spa and vast expanses of private - sometimes Blue Flag - beach.

Which is the best Ikos for families?

Throughout Ikos resorts there are incredible creches and kids clubs for ages 4-17, as well as children's pools and splash areas. Children’s menus at restaurants are balanced and always varied, allowing even the littlest of palettes to enjoy the best and freshest Ikos cuisines.

Which is the best Ikos for adults?

Each Ikos resort has areas reserved solely for adults, meaning if you want to enjoy a tranquil couple’s escape, you’re sure to find it with Ikos. Guests can make use of Ikos Spa wet areas and the heated swimming pools, as well as the incredible beachfront locations that allow couples to lounge on pristine sanded shores. The complimentary Local Drive Adventure means guests can venture outside of the resort grounds to discover the locality, and the Dine Out Service allows those enjoying an Ikos holiday to sample the cuisines of restaurants in the local area, too.

Which Ikos Resort has the best beach?

It’s incredibly difficult to decide on the Ikos resort with the best beach, as so many of the resorts border beautiful stretches of golden, Blue Flag beach.  Ikos Aria in Kos borders the fully serviced, Blue Flag-awarded Agios Stefanos Beach - you’d be hard pressed to find a better shore for splashing, swimming, and sunbathing - and Ikos Dassia in Corfu also benefits from a 600-metre expanse of private beach, so couples, groups and families alike can each find a tranquil section of the shore to relax on.
