Club Med in Greece
The best-known and the first all-inclusive resort company is Club Med. Club Med operates four resorts in Greece, but these are sometimes omitted from their promotions and pamphlets in the United States.Their family-oriented Athenia Village is located south of Athens. There are other villages on the island of Kos, at Gregolimano, and at Mare Nostrum.
Club Med also offers weekly special offers for those who can travel on short notice.
All-inclusive or not?
Club Med originally pioneered the "all-inclusive" concept, but it has expanded to include a number of variants, some of which are not so all-inclusive. That option is still available at some resorts, but many other packages vary in what they include. Special programs for children are usually extra. The Greek "Villages" at Kos and near Athens are on the "All-inclusive Option" plan. It's still available, but it may not be at the purchase price that is being promoted. The website can be slow, and does not list "Villages" by country; search on the specific names given above. But given the general downturn in travel, there are often discounts available.Mark Warner's
U.K. operators in general offer more all-inclusive options. One deluxe resort is Mark Warner's family-friendly paradise at Lakitira on the Greek island of Kos and another Greek all-inclusive resort called San Agostino near Kalamata in the Peloponnese. Lakitira is particularly rich in watersport options, and specialized childcare is available, even for infants (4 months and older).More on Lakitira
Maris Hotels
Maris Hotels in Hersonissos, Crete offers "all-inclusive" packages and bills their seven hotels as "all-inclusive" resorts, but the number of add-on amenities is extensive, including some drinks and special food items. And if your idea of sport activities includes more than tennis, table tennis, or beach volleyball, be prepared to pay additional fees. But they offer one more fee-based opportunity not included at most resorts - a spinal rehabilitation institute on the premises and extensive physical therapy facilities.Book Direct: Travelocity Specials on All-Inclusive Vacations
