Best Ikos hotel?

Has anyone stayed at more than one of the Ikos hotels to give a sense of whether they are particularly different?

We have had friends who have been to the one in Crete and the new one Olivia but it’s so hard to choose which one to go for when they look quite similar!

We like the idea of using the all-inclusive credits to eat at local restaurants, and get out and about to see the area beyond the resort.

We’ve been told they get booked up very quickly so want to book now for next summer to get the pick of rooms.

Dassia. Definitely. Its fairly flat resort, not hilly. Fairly new, opened in 2021. There is also a lovely sunset boat trip around the cove included in the AI package (fairly big boat for 30 people). The service is amazing, friendly, personal and attentive. And the ratio of staff to guests high. There are 7 a la carte restaurants, Olivia has less (i think). There are two main buildings which you can get a golf buggy between, its a huge site. We were at Olivia last year and the service was rushed, fewer staff and needed more training. But still a nice resort. I favour Dassia ☺️

Thanks so much!
I think the only one which we have totally ruled out is Oceana

But the others all look so beautiful
