Adult Tennis Holiday – 4* Daphnila Bay

Daphnila Bay is one of our most cherished resorts, offering an authentic Greek charm.

If you are looking for a small, authentic, charming resort for your next Adult Tennis Holiday, then Daphnila Bay is perfect for you.

We love making the most of the generous all-inclusive board basis at Daphnila Bay. From Tanqueray gin and expertly brewed coffees (the iced caramel latte from the bar is a favourite!) to the delicious à la carte meals served in stunning settings – every detail adds to the experience. Paired with breathtaking views and a relaxed, sociable atmosphere, it’s the kind of place that turns a tennis holiday into a truly unforgettable escape.

A short walk up the hill in the resort takes you to the tennis centre – with a lovely decked area as a meeting point for our sessions. The courts themselves play well (they are Astro Turf) however can look a little ‘murky’ if there is rain.

Setting

Located on a homely hillside overlooking the Ionian Sea, Daphnila Bay Hotel offers a serene and scenic setting surrounded by pine and olive trees. The resort’s elevated location provides stunning sea views, with a private beach just a short stroll away.

Courts

Set within lush gardens and surrounded by tall pine trees, Daphnila Bay’s six well-maintained astro-turf tennis courts provide a peaceful and picturesque setting to play. Whether you’re in the middle of a high-energy coaching session or a friendly doubles match, the natural surroundings make it a joy to be on court.

Do note that the surface can become slightly dark or murky after rain, but it typically dries quickly thanks to the Mediterranean climate – so play rarely stops for long!

In addition to the tennis courts, the resort also features one padel court – perfect for those wanting to try something new or enjoy a fun, fast-paced game with friends.
