Located in the privacy of a secluded cove in Vathi, Daios Cove Luxury Resort and Villas in Crete is the absolute choice for travelers seeking 5-star luxury accommodation in Agios Nikolaos. The resort’s exclusive location, along with its impressive architecture seamlessly blending in with the rugged surroundings creates a natural hub of beauty and serenity for you to explore.
Set against the visual drama of a secluded bay, Daios Cove Luxury Resort & Villas nestles on a hillside on the beautiful northern coast of Crete. From every angle, the views are sublime: the calm turquoise sea of the quiet cove, spectacular verdant slopes, lush terraced gardens, a yellow crescent of private beach and a wide expanse of azure sky.
Then there’s the interior and exterior design. Daios Cove is minimalist, modern, chic and sumptuous with a carefully created designer style; and its elegant and sophisticated architecture has been crafted from the natural environment. Sculpted out of the hillside rock, every stone has been traditionally hand-carved and reclaimed. As a result, Daios Cove blends beautifully into its picturesque rural surroundings.
Then, there’s the Daios Cove spirit.
Daios cleverly combines five-star luxury and a select ambience with impeccable, friendly, always accessible service. Guests have a choice of luxury villas, rooms and suites (many with their own private sea water pools), six restaurant and bars, fitness center, wellness sanctuary and kids club.
Whether relaxing on the exclusive beach, swimming in the pools, sampling fine cuisine, enjoying first class service or simply soaking up the unique atmosphere, Daios Cove makes for the perfect luxury hideaway — and the ultimate holiday.
A straightforward and contemporary approach defines the food you will sample here at Daios Cove. Local, seasonal ingredients are combined to bring out the best in each element without losing autonomy. In all our dining venues, we embrace the Cretan way of life: meticulous, simple, frugal. This is reflected in our dishes where freshness, authenticity and exceptional flavors take center stage.
At the helm of the cocktail experience at Daios Cove are The Clumsies, top mixologists from Athens and their award-winning bar, consistently in the top spots of the #Worlds50BestBars. Our longstanding partnership sees The Clumsies creating their signature list for our guests celebrating favorite concoctions, spiced with the creativity that characterizes the mixing masters.
Drawing inspiration from the unique flora of the Cretan landscape they mix the world’s best drinks to perfection with innovative combinations. The Beach House, Crystal Box and Ocean Bar await your order where you can sit back, relax and sip on that perfect cocktail to get you in the summer mood. The negronis never tasted so good!
