We are kicking off the year with a great offer from one of my favourite long-term partners in Greece.
Our story with the family-friendly Sani/Ikos Group goes back to the very beginnings of The Little Voyager, when I had the pleasure of first working with Sani Resort in Halkidiki. Thanks to their welcoming sales team, we were given a wonderful opportunity to begin a partnership that has been growing steadily ever since.
For those of you who may not yet be familiar with Ikos Resorts, here is a brief overview:
Ikos Resorts – a globally unique concept for luxury-minded families

Ikos Porto Petro opened in summer 2023 in one of Mallorca’s most beautiful locations. It is in the traditional fishing village of Portopetro. Situated in the municipality of Santanyí near Cala d’Or. Nestled between two stunning beaches near the Cala Mondragó Nature Park, the family-friendly resort offers breathtaking water views. These can be enjoyed from many of the 324 rooms and suites, some with private terraces and private pools.
With five pools, a superbly equipped spa, a wide range of water sports and fitness options. This includes four tennis courts, paddle courts, a football pitch, a kids club, a large playground and 24-hour room service. Ikos Porto Petro leaves little to be desired.
