Emir Biscevic
We had a truly wonderful stay at Daios Cove and can highly recommend this beautiful resort. What stood out the most was the incredibly friendly and welcoming staff. Every team member we met greeted us with a genuine smile and positive energy, creating a warm and relaxed atmosphere throughout our stay. Their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail made us feel valued and cared for from the moment we arrived. The hotel itself is exceptionally well maintained. Everything is spotless, clean, and beautifully presented. The facilities, rooms, and common areas are kept in excellent condition, reflecting the high standards of the resort. The combination of outstanding service, positive vibes, and the immaculate surroundings made our vacation truly memorable. We left feeling refreshed and already looking forward to returning next year! Thank you to the entire Daios Cove team for making our stay so special!

We had the most incredible honeymoon stay at Daios Cove. From the moment we arrived at the airport, the customer experience was seamless — a private transfer, a very easy late check-in, and then an unbelievable room waiting for us. We stayed in one of the Modern Collection suites and it was perfect: spacious, spotless, beautifully designed, with modern amenities, a fully stocked fridge, and even rose petals on the bed. The entire team and all the staff were amazing throughout our stay and catered to everything we needed. Every member of staff we met was kind, attentive and genuinely helpful. My wife is coeliac, and we were so impressed by how aware and careful the team were with her dietary requirements. It made such a difference and allowed us to fully relax and enjoy the experience. The resort itself is stunning - amazing views, beautiful water, a fantastic beach, spotless facilities, and plenty of staff always on hand. All of the restaurants were brilliant. Food was good at all the al a carte restaurants. A huge thank you to the whole team at Daios Cove for making our honeymoon so special. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay.

We had the most incredible honeymoon at Daios Cove in early May. The staff went above and beyond to make us happy and welcomed during our stay. Food/Drinks were absolutely amazing and very luxurious. One thing to note is the amount of children at the resort, which can be very loud and disturbing when you're trying to relax. The hotel however, has adult only sections in some restaurants but still it's notable to mention. If you are looking for an adult-only experience, this won't be the hotel for you. We managed to have a relaxing time as traveling in low season meant there was less people there. The pool and beach were very well maintained and clean. The staff were very welcoming and made us comfortable. We recommend having drinks by the water as it's a very relaxing experience. We visited the gift shops a few times, items were overpriced but they were fun to look at. We visited the gym during our visit and were very happy and satisfied with the number of machines, workout equipment, outdoor area, facilities and items for sale. The staff were very nice and answered all questions for us. We did not visit the spa as the treatments were rather expensive, but heard from other guests that it was awesome. Thank you Daios Cove for making our honeymoon a beautiful trip to remember forever. We can't wait to come back!

We had the pleasure of returning to Daios Cove for the second time, and once again, it was an absolutely unforgettable and exceptional experience. This hotel truly offers everything one could wish for to relax and enjoy a perfect stay in Greece. From the variety of excellent restaurants to the beautiful beach, every detail is designed for comfort and enjoyment. The staff’s kindness and professionalism stand out everywhere, making you feel genuinely welcomed. The gym is particularly impressive, offering breathtaking views over the hotel’s cove, working out there is an experience in itself!! As frequent guests of five-star hotels, we can confidently say that the quality of the food across all the hotel’s restaurants is outstanding, truly exceptional and among the best we’ve experienced. Everything in the hotel is meticulously maintained: cleanliness is impeccable, the facilities are well cared for, and the housekeeping team does an excellent job. The tennis facilities are also very well kept. The rooms are spacious, extremely comfortable, and offer stunning views that add to the overall sense of relaxation. We would like to extend a special thank you to Dimitra Ch. from the reservations team, as well as to all the staff working in the various restaurants, Ocean Taverna, the Beach Bar, and Rho. Their professionalism, kindness, and attentiveness made our stay even more memorable. We are already looking forward to coming back again.

We had a great stay, the room was spacious and elegant. The location right by the sea makes it an ideal place to relax. The food and wine selection were outstanding, and the staff was friendly and attentive throughout our stay. Easily one of the best seaside resorts in Crete. Can’t wait to be back!! ☺️
