Where rugged cliffs meet refined serenity

Regal is the word that comes to mind at Daios Cove – a sanctuary seemingly grown from the hillside itself, overlooking the impossibly blue Aegean Sea. Here, contrasts reign beautifully: rugged cliffside meets quietly sophisticated architecture, crisp white loungers lead you to the cove’s azure embrace, and days flow effortlessly between lazy poolside lounging and invigorating fitness sessions.

The beach is a secluded haven; the cove, your private playground. The spa is an all-encompassing sanctuary, offering wellness experiences that linger long after you leave.

WHAT'S INCLUDED?

Hotel highlights

Contemporary, sophisticated, and dangerously moreish – that’s our take on the foodie scene at Daios Cove. Expect menus packed with Mediterranean influence, seafood fresh off the boat, and dishes you’ll be dreaming about long after the plates have been cleared.

From fine dining at Ocean Restaurant to the unpretentious offering at The Beach House, whether you’re in the mood for haute cuisine or comfort food, you’ll find it here. Crystal Box – with its menu of signature sips courtesy of the expert mixologist team – might have the best views in the house, thanks to its sea-framing floor-to-ceiling windows. And for lazy lie-ins and midnight munchies, room service is available ‘round the clock.
