Lemnos Beach Resort, Lemnos, Greece

A popular choice for families with young kids or teens visiting the unspoilt Greek island of Lemnos, just a 30-minute transfer from the airport, the Lemnos Beach Resort includes excellent childcare for ages up to 17, evening movie nights and a kids' pool.

Its setting on a sandy beach with shallow waters makes it ideal for little ones, but the more active can try their hand at sailing or windsurfing, with most tuition fees included in the price. The watersports here are top class. But if land sports are more your thing, take to a tennis court or hire a mountain- or road-bike to explore more of Lemnos.

Rooms are simple but contemporary, spacious and well suited to families; some sleep up to seven people and an infant, making this a great choice for large families or for holidays with grandparents or extended family. Meanwhile, the full-board arrangement means you don't need to think about shopping, cooking or where to go out for dinner. Breakfast and lunch is taken on a terrace, while dinner is served the restaurant styled as a traditional Greek taverna, with wine for adults included in the package.
