There are numerous fabulous family orientated hotels and resorts to choose from in Greece. Here we list just 5 of our favourites. Set on a private sandy bay in Crete, Daios Cove has luxury contemporary villas and suites with private pools, plus great facilities and services, including babysitting, a Kids' Club and a crèche. There's a similar set up at Eagles Palace in Halkidiki but offers better water sports, whilst Danai Beach Resort & Villas (pictured), also in Halkidiki, tops the list for exemplary service, boutique elegance and terrific 2 bedroom pool villas. For a luxury all-inclusive family holiday in the Aegean, it's hard to beat Ikos Oceania; and Elivi Skiathos is a chic, boutique option for those that don't require a kids' club. For a more detailed summary of these beach resorts, please see Best Family Beach Resorts in Greece

For an all-inclusive action packed family beach holiday in Turkey, the top pick has to be Hillside Beach Club. Families return year after year and everyone loves it. For a more sophisticated option, that's better for those without wee ones, D-Hotel Maris (pictured) is a superb choice - with 5 private beaches and an exceptional array of facilities and services, on land and water. 

The Algarve, on Portugal's south coast, is so easy to get to and offers a great selection of family beach resorts. Our top 2 picks are the magnificent Vila Vita Parc (especially if you enjoy Michelin starred dining every now and then) and the chic Martinhal Beach Resort. But, many prefer the perennially popular Pine Cliffs Resort or Epic Sana, the new kid on the block. Don't worry, we can help you decide!

If you prefer luxury, contemporary accommodation and masses of space, combined with a great selection of activities, services and facilities for guests of all ages, the exceptional Verdura Resort (pictured) in Sicily is an outstanding option. Alternatively, if you enjoy resorts that offer an astonishing array of everything you could possibly think of on a family holiday, then Forte Village Sardinia - regularly voted the Best Family Resort in Europe - is probably unbeatable.
