Ikos and Sani, from the inside
The Mediterranean's most talked-about luxury resorts, from a team that stays there with our own families.
We have access to some of the most competitive pricing in the industry for Sani and Ikos, and first-hand knowledge of the resorts. Tell us how you like to holiday and we'll match you to the right one, right down to the room.

Why we love Ikos and Sani
The resorts our guests ask about most
Ikos is the resort collection we're asked about most consistently, and for good reason. We send guests there with complete confidence that they'll fall in love with it just as we did. It isn't just a place we recommend: we go back ourselves, with our own families, year after year.
Sani, Ikos's sister resort in Halkidiki, is a different kind of special: five hotels on a 1,000-acre private nature reserve, with its own marina, Blue Flag beaches and more than 20 restaurants to explore.
As Ikos Prestige Club members and Sani Ambassadors, we know which suite to ask for, which kids' club suits which age and which tables to book before you fly.

Ikos or Sani?
How they compare
Both are run by the same group, Sani/Ikos, with the same eye for detail, but they feel quite different. Here's how we explain it to our guests.
| Topic | Ikos Resorts | Sani Resort |
|---|---|---|
| The idea | All-inclusive, reimagined. À la carte restaurants with menus by Michelin-starred chefs, more than 100 wines and almost everything included. | Five hotels sharing one private estate, with its own marina, beaches, pine forest and wetlands, and more than 20 restaurants. |
| Board | All-inclusive | Half board or full board, so you can Dine Around 24 restaurants across the resort. |
| Where | Kos, Corfu, Crete and Halkidiki in Greece, plus Andalusia and Mallorca in Spain | The Kassandra peninsula in Halkidiki, northern Greece, around 50 minutes from Thessaloniki airport |
| For children | Heroes Kids Club for 4 to 12 year olds included, with a crèche for younger children at an extra cost | Kids' clubs for 4 to 12 year olds included, a crèche from 6 months (extra cost), a teen club, and academies with Bear Grylls, Chelsea FC and the Rafa Nadal tennis centre |
| Our tip | Choose Ikos if you want to switch off completely, with world-class food and drink taken care of. | Choose Sani if you love variety, from beach tavernas to Michelin-starred dining, in a resort that feels like its own village. |
