  • Beautiful setting on a sandy stretch of beach with a designated adults-only area and waiter service
  • Five exquisite à la carte restaurants specialising in gourmet cuisine with menus created by Michelin-starred chefs

Luxurious beachfront retreat

A luxury family resort with all the trimmings, the Ikos Olivia impresses on all fronts. It’s set in 22 acres of tropical gardens, pulled up right next to a Blue-Flag sweep of golden sand, and offers a choice of bars and restaurants.

Four curvy pools weave through the landscaped grounds, giving way to loungers, parasols and sun-trap terraces fringed by fir and olive trees. Swap poolside for beachfront and you can look forward to waiter-service throughout the day, with snacks and cold drinks delivered straight to your sunbed. A little too laid-back? Try badminton, volleyball, tennis, and yoga, or even explore your spectacular surroundings with a bit of mountain biking.. This hotel is great for families, too, and comes with a kids' club, teen club, and a football academy for budding little superstars.

Foodies will love it here. There are five à la carte restaurants to choose from, three of which have menus curated by Michelin star chefs. Indulge in innovative Italian dishes, traditional Greek fare with a modern twist, Thai food, and more. For meals that are a little more low-key, the buffet restaurant serves up Mediterranean favourites overlooking the majesty of the Aegean Sea. When the sun goes down head to one of six seriously chic bars for a nightcap to remember.

What Ikos Olivia has to offer

    Little ones, big adventures

    Your little ones are just as unique (and fussy) as the grown-ups, which is why this is not a one-size fits all kids’ club. With activities tailored to different age groups and interests, youngsters can get stuck into loads of different things – from crafts for tots to adventures in nature for teens. There’s even a supper club just for them, allowing you to sit back and relax while the staff keep them entertained and well fed.

    Breezy beach days

    With the beach just a stone’s throw away, days spent by the shore with your toes in the sand are a cinch. No more lugging deck chairs, toys, towels, sandwiches, or that sun hat you never wear but bring just in case it comes in handy. Sun loungers and parasols await on this Blue-Flag slice of paradise. Plus, you can easily pop to the snack bar for drinks and light bites.

    Michelin-magic

    Foodies, rejoice! Dining here is a delight, with a mix of Mediterranean favourites and international dishes. Don’t skip Provence, where you can sample gourmet French flavours with a menu designed by a Michelin-starred chef that celebrates the elegance and sophistication of the Côte d’Azur’s cuisine. To keep the evening going, stop by the Deluxe Bar for a glass of fine wine.
