Top tips for Ikos Dassia in April with two children

[user1464818700]

I’m going to Ikos Dassia with my 2 kids age 7 and 10, leaving April 6th. Meeting elderly parents there. Getting very excited. I’ve never been to such a nice hotel before. Please give me your top tips. Don’t want to realise I’ve missed out on something because I didn’t research what’s included enough. What is the buffet like - or should I aim To go to the bookable restaurants as much as possible? Could I go to restaurant on my own to enjoy some peace and then take the kids to the buffet? Are there snacks during the day? Any tips gratefully received.

Love Ikos - we’ve done Odisia twice now which is just a walk down the beach from dassia so definitely go there for a visit. The food, drink and service are all amazing, you won’t be disappointed. If you’re on standard (not deluxe) you can and should book 3 restaurants before you go. Once there, you WhatsApp the concierge for anything you need daily - things in your fridge, restaurant bookings etc. enjoy, it’s an amazing holiday.

Been to Dassia twice. Love it. Visited Ikos hotels around 6 times with my young kids.
Buffet is your best bet for kids as they can go and pick what they want. You will get option to book the restaurants but if I was you I’d go alone/with partner as the portions are not that big and not much option. Sometimes not all the restaurants are open so best bet is buffet.
I’ve been a drop in the customer service unfortunately but it’s still a great hotel.
Snacks available all day long.
if you’ve booked directly with the hotel then you will get free hotel transfers. You will also get 10% off your next visit and each time you visit on top of any special promo offers.
They have free bike rental for the kids and adults.
Check if your dates align with the football escapes sessions. Some celebrity footballers come to football camp at the hotel.
The food is amazing, the spa is amazing.
