Amirandes Grecotel Boutique Resort
Brilliant childcare and child-friendly suites and villas, many with private pools, make this traditional and very glamorous resort a firm favourite with families. Centred on a lagoon pool, this beachfront resort was styled after the palaces of the Minoan kings and Venetian nobles who once ruled the island, and its highlights include an Ayurvedic spa and atmospheric dining – beachside by the light of braziers, beneath the stars on a wooden deck above the pool, or even surrounded by an amazing collection of genuine Picasso ceramics that adorns the “Minotaur” restaurant.
There’s plenty to do both on-site and near the Amirandes Grecotel Boutique Resort too, ranging from boat safaris and fishing excursions to horse riding and golf. You’re also right on hand for the lively island capital Heraklion with its Venetian port, fortress, and archaeological museum, and the Minoan Palace of Knossos, home to the maze-dwelling Minotaur of legend.
Grecotel Caramel
This family-friendly boutique retreat has all kinds of great activities, including eco-themed days and the likes of Greek dancing in its kids’ and teen clubs catering for children aged 4–17 years. There’s also a water sports centre and a nearby diving school, and plenty to do outside the resort, including exploring Heraklion and Knossos.
Another huge draw is the resort’s setting on a beach providing a home for Caretta caretta turtles, making it perfect for those looking for a true escape but with enough fun to keep the kids entertained. Oozing retro glamour in its suites and villas, you can take advantage of flexible accommodation options that can sleep up to nine people – ideal for multigenerational holidays with grandparents, or getaways with extended family or friends.
Grecotel Marine Palace Aqua Park & Kingdom of Poseidon
Excitingly revamped for summer 2024, with a new kids’ pool, a new spa and gym, new rooms and bungalows, and an expansion of its main restaurant, the Marine Palace has always been a classic choice for families thanks to its superb Aqua Park and neighbouring lagoon pool. It’s also quite charming – designed to resemble a seaside village, with different neighbourhoods with gardens, restaurants, and boutiques.
The choice of accommodation here embraces something to suit all families, including stylishly themed Casa Marina rooms near the Aqua Park, while the Grecoland Club includes new Mermaid School adventures and cookery lessons, and Grecoteens keeps activity-loving teens busy. Meanwhile, parents can slope off to the spa with its 75m² indoor pool with hydromassage tub, sauna, and signature treatments inspired by ancient Greek rituals and the country’s abundant nature. Spa facilities also include a fitness room with various equipment, three private massage rooms, a beauty salon, hairdresser, and fitness aerobic area.

In April 2026, a group of Travel Counsellors swapped their desks for glaciers, geysers and geothermal lagoons, heading to Iceland for an unforgettable few days with Obeo Travel. And from the moment they landed, it was clear this was going to be something special.
Opening in spring 2026, AMOH, A Luxury Collection Resort, Rhodes is set on a private peninsula near Lindos, with wide views across the Mediterranean and direct access to two sandy coves. It’s designed as a place to slow down and spend time well, whether that’s with family, a partner, or simply switching off for a few days. The focus is on space, privacy, and a strong sense of place, rather than overcomplicating the experience.
Spain in summer often means busy resorts, packed city centres, and temperatures that can make even short walks feel like hard work. Visiting in spring or autumn changes the pace completely. Days are still warm and bright, but without the intensity, which makes it far easier to enjoy everything from sightseeing to long, relaxed meals outdoors. You will also notice fewer queues at major attractions, more availability at popular hotels, and a general sense that you can take your time rather than plan everything around the crowds.
