- The food at Daios is excellent and the staff are very friendly and efficient, nothing is too much trouble. During the Greek night they would prepare mouth-watering dishes at the live cooking station, making sure you have enough energy to practice the intricate dance steps, trying to keep up with the professionals! Lia - Our hotel expert
- There is nothing better than spending an afternoon in the spa. There are different steam rooms and sauna cabins, making sure everyone can find one that suits them best. The whole spa just oozes peace and calmness, whether you choose to visit one of the treatment rooms or just relax by the lovely swimming pool. Laura - Our hotel expert
