An activity for everyone

Be it hiking, bungee jumping, climbing, swimming or ski touring, there’s something for everyone who loves to be active.

Heaps of history

You will be staying near the most important Ancient Greek archaeological sites. Put your life into perspective by visiting them during your free time.

Single, family or small group

Traveling alone or traveling with your business group or family, at Daphne’s Club you will be warmly welcomed as part of the family. This is our home too and we want you to become part of it.

What is the difference between Daphne’s Club and any number of hotels offering office facilities?

The difference between Daphne’s Club and other hotels offering office facilities is that here we believe in positively combining work and fun! We want this to be your “WorkAholiday“! 

So we are not a holiday hotel which also offers office facilities. Nor are we a city hotel which also offers fun activities. 

At Daphne’s Club we aim to help you combine work time and relaxation time in a balanced and holistic way, in order to reach the ultimate goal of well-being, the “good life” as it was called by the Ancient Greeks. 

So… take your work to the beach, take a WorkAholiday!

*The WorkAholiday employee gift voucher

We conceived the WorkAholiday employee gift voucher because we firmly believe that in order to be creative and productive, we need to be relaxed and happy; we need to be strong and healthy, with a peaceful mind and soul. We believe that, less is indeed more!

How does it work?

WorkAholiday is more than just teleworking from a holiday resort and of course it is not part of your annual paid leave, i.e. of your holiday! It should be considered, both by your employer and by you as part of your normal working time.  

Why a WorkAholiday employee gift voucher?
What’s in it for me? What’s in it for my employer?

WorkAholiday is a way of combining work and fun/relaxation.

You gain because you can be with your family, comfortably dressed, enjoying a more natural environment than usual, having a change of scenery. You will be working, but you can choose your breaks, as often as you need them, and during those breaks you can go for a swim, play tennis, have lunch with your kids and enjoy life.

Your employer gains because being happier and more relaxed means that you will also be more creative and productive. Your employer can also offer a WorkAholiday employee gift voucher as a bonus scheme for employees, or use it when a team needs to brainstorm on a project. 

Who pays for a WorkAholiday employee gift voucher?

Α WorkAholiday employee gift voucher, like any gift voucher, is  paid by the person offering it, in this case by your employer. Ask them to Contact us directly!
