A long-standing family favourite on the north coast, Neptune combines a proper sandy beach with a genuinely well-run kids programme and calm, green grounds. Mastichari is a low-key fishing village, so evenings are gentle, and the shallow Aegean here is good for paddling, with the caveat that afternoon breezes can pick up. It is the reliable, slightly grown-up all-inclusive that keeps families coming back.
Our verdict
A dependable, beach-front all-inclusive that quietly gets the family basics right. Best for babies to pre-teens who want sand and a kids club.
The rooms
Bright rooms, bungalows and family suites in low garden buildings running down to a long sandy beach at Mastichari. Family suites have a separate kids room, and connecting rooms are widely available, so families of four or five are well served. Cots, high chairs and a baby-care corner in the restaurant make the early years easy here.

Ikos Aria
Large rooms, suites and bungalows in gardens sloping to Kamari Bay, most with a sea or garden view. Two-bedroom family suites and swim-up options mean parents and older kids get their own space, and cots and bed rails are standard. This is the room configuration that makes a long week with little ones actually restful.

Kos Imperial
Rooms, bungalows and family suites terraced down a hillside to the sea at Psalidi, many with sea views and some with a private or shared pool. Family suites and connecting bungalows give two-child families real separation, and cots plus baby kit are easy to arrange. The multi-level layout is beautiful but worth flagging if you have a pram.
