Gran Meliá Resort and Luxury Villas Daios Cove is a brand new luxury resort nested on a hillside overlooking its private tranquil bay on the North-East part of Crete. Located right on the waterfront with a private sandy beach, masterfully blending the surrounding landscape together with its unique private bay and direct access to the crystalline waters. The resort is just 20 minutes from the fishing village of Elounda– an area emerging as the Aegean‘s premier luxury destination-, 10 minutes from the cosmopolitan town of Agios Nikolaos and less than an hour from Heraklion International Airport.
Crete is blessed with year-round sunshine and mild weather, flawless beaches and some of the world‘s most important archaeological sites – including the remnants of the great Minoan kingdom.
The Hotel represents the perfect integration between architecture and design with the surrounding environment. It evokes the intimate charm of the traditional villages found throughout the Greek isles, expressed in an elegant, contemporary aesthetic.
