There’s a whole world of intriguing, inspiring and exciting destinations out there. So to whet your appetite for experiencing those special places, here’s a taste of one of our current favourite locations…
THE DIFFERENCE IS IKOS
Having been a huge fan of the Sani Resort in Halkidiki, Ikos had a lot to live up to. But boy did it deliver!
I travelled to Ikos Dassia in Corfu with my family in May this year. Upon arrival we were quickly checked in and escorted to our one-bedroom suite – fabulously spacious, bright, airy with a gorgeous vista out towards the pools and Ionian Sea.
My 2 girls (aged 3 and 5) were keen to check out the Kids Club so we wandered down and they immediately joined in. It’s a playful, happy, safe area with trained carers who are their purely for your children’s entertainment. We had to literally drag the children out at lunchtime!
Food, glorious food
Food is on another level at Ikos – there are seven restaurants to choose from, spanning the globe in terms of cuisine. Being an All Inclusive concept we were particularly impressed with the standards and service of food – not to mention the simply huge wine list – over 300 labels to choose from!
We decided to use the Kids Club just in the mornings – it gave us chance to go to the gym, tidy the room (!), or simply have an hour to ourselves. After lunch we usually hit the Splash Park and played in and around the water jets all afternoons (with a few ice cream pit stops!).
Entertainment
After dinner, depending upon tiredness levels, we went to one of the Ikos shows at the Teatro. A cute open air theatre showcasing a mixture of song and dance to appeal to all ages. The Disney inspired show was fantastic and will be locked into my two Princesses memory’s for years to come.
We still feel there’s more of Ikos for us to enjoy (not least the fact there are Ikos hotels in Halkidiki, Kos and soon Estapona, Spain) so we have already booked for next year. We’re upgrading to a Deluxe One-Bedroom suite – not least to take advantage of the unpacking/packing facility. Now that really is service!
