Ikos Aria
Kefalos, Kos, Greece
Aria terraces down a hillside on Kos's quiet south-west coast to a sandy beach, so every pool and suite gets a view. Its Heroes clubs mix indoor and outdoor play with watersports for older children, and the airport is only twenty minutes away. Day trips to the Nisyros volcano make a brilliant adventure for school-age kids.
