Grecotel LUXME Daphnila Bay

Hotel highlights

• Greek restaurant, Italian restaurant, BBQ restaurant, buffet restaurant and a fine-dining restaurant for an adults-only date night, and that's not even half of the restaurants and bars up for grabs

• A library, but not the kind you're thinking of (this one is much better), a wine library full of over 150 different wines. Now this is a library we wanna visit

• Stylish rooms with tonnes of amenities and an open plan space for a relaxing stay

• Swimming pools, tennis courts (7?!), loads of sports activities and a kids' club for the little guests. We don't wanna be hearing the words 'I'm bored'

Just so you know, the official rating of this property is four stars, however due to the excellent quality of services and facilities, we feel that the hotel is worthy of a five-star rating.
