tourism group in Greece. Recognised as the market leader in the hotel sector with brands
including Grecotel Hotels & Resorts, the Group has successfully expanded to include 20
Grecotel hotels and 10 affiliated properties in Greece.
The Founder
Nikos Daskalantonakis started his long journey in tourism from his birthplace of Rethymnon
Crete. After building his first hotel in 1974 his path has been of constant expansion into new
destinations and products.
In 1993, Daskalantonakis expanded his interests into city properties and by 2004, the year of
the Athens Olympic Games, had amassed a portfolio of fifteen affiliated hotels & properties.
Today, he is president & major shareholder of over 60 private companies in Greece and thus
the leading tourism entrepreneur in the country.
Daskalantonakis has been a proponent of quality tourism development and, amongst other
activities, founded the first private bank in Greece, launched private domestic airlines and was
a director of Olympic Airways. His honorary positions include Honorary Consul of the Russian
Federation for Crete & the Dodecanese and he has been president & founder of national and
regional hoteliers’ federations.
As President of the N. Daskalantonakis Group, he is the major shareholder and president of 32
properties with over 12,700 beds. [12/2012]
Over 2,500 personnel are employed in the N. Daskalantonakis Group, making it the most
significant employer in the Greek hospitality sector.
Grecotel Hotels & Resorts have been awarded over 1500 international awards by guests, tourism
organisations, tour operators and international associations for the quality of its hotels, upgrading of
the Greek tourism product and for initiatives in the environmental and cultural field.

founding company of the Group. TUI Hotels & Resorts is a 50% shareholder in Grecotel which was
founded in 1981 as a resort hotel management company. Within a matter of years it had become
established as the leading, quality hotel brand and expansion ensued to the major tourism
destinations in Greece.
Grecotel manages 20 luxury & 4‐star resort hotels in Crete, Corfu, Mykonos, Attica, Kos, Rhodes,
Peloponnese and Halkidiki.

farming and livestock methods.
It is also an environmental educational centre for visitors from the local Grecotels, farmers and

Signatures
What distinguishes N. Daskalantonakis Group properties from other destinations on the
hospitality map?
Landmark locations are just the beginning. From a villa on a secluded Aegean beach to a
sumptuous suite overlooking an archaeological temple, a vibrant lounge for cocktails at dusk
to a private cabana for secluded dinner, every setting is one‐of‐a‐kind. N. Daskalantonakis
Group reinterprets today's sense of history, modernity, tradition and innovation in a
uniquely timeless fashion.
Yet within each very individual hotel and resort, certain qualities are welcomingly consistent.
Creativity, comfort and service are the signatures of every experience, with guest needs
innovatively anticipated and graciously accommodated. Equally constant are the accolades
our distinctive hotels earn in annual guest, travel associations and media awards.
Inspiring Design
The Group’s one‐of‐a‐kind hotels and resorts set the stage for romance, business, leisure
and celebration.
Intuitive Service
Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounio
Behind the amenities and beyond the design details lies signature service philosophy.
With a mission to overlook no detail or desire, the entire staff is focused on delivering a
seamless experience—for each guest and every request.

Dining & Nightlife
Acclaimed by top critics, the 60 a la carte restaurants provide unique dining experiences.
Every location reflects the ambiance and service of the individual property, featuring
acclaimed chefs, local and international beverages, top‐quality ingredients and inspiring
settings.
Specially Tailored Meetings & Events
As a meeting destination, corporate retreat, or restful hideaway between presentations, the
properties offer exceptional service and amenities to make meetings and events both
successful and easy.
The Group has over 30 years of experience in managing events ranging from European
Summits to business meetings and conferences, social gatherings and memorable weddings.
There is a comprehensive catering service for any event type—all with relentless attention
to detail.
Environmental Responsibility
Olympia Riviera Resort Convention Centre
In 1992, Grecotel became the first Mediterranean hotel group to undertake eco‐audits in its
hotels according to EU standards and formed an environment and culture department in its
head office operations department. Grecotel is now a textbook example in leading tourism
schools and universities. To demonstrate the group’s agricultural initiatives, the Agreco
Traditional Estate opened in 2002 on Crete.
