Ikos Kissamos
Kissamos, Crete, Greece
The first Ikos on Crete opened west of Chania with lavender mazes, sensory gardens and hidden play spaces built into 53 acres of landscaping. Childcare follows the familiar Ikos ladder from six months, children can take tennis coaching alone or as a family, and the pink-sand lagoon at Balos is a boat ride from the nearby harbour.
