These family-friendly hotels in Greece will make you want to escape there this summer

Not only is it summer-holiday heaven, it’s also master of the child-friendly resort – and these are some of our favourite luxury family hotels in Greece. They’re all perfect for this year’s holiday, since each has enough to keep every family member entertained.

The Greek mainland and its many islands – from Corfu to Santorini – have lots of mega-resorts to choose from, with multiple bars and restaurants, and activity centres with tennis academies and so much more.

Many luxury family hotels in Greece have cottoned on to the fact that, while the kids may love it, the adults can get a little claustrophobic staying within the confines of the resort – so they’ve introduced dining credits that can be used in the neighbouring village’s traditional taverna, for example. Ikos Dassia in Corfu is one such resort – its Infinite Lifestyle concept is the new way to do all-inclusive.

Crete is a long-established favourite for families – the island is the fifth biggest in the Med, with lots to explore, from the Venetian harbour in Chania to various archaeological sites of note, the star of which is the Palace of Knossos. Children will love Domes of Elounda (and not just for its straight-out-of-science-fiction name).
