What Sets the Explorers Experience Apart

“The first thing we always say to guests who haven’t experienced an Explorers vacation yet is that it’s difficult to appreciate the full impact of all the support we offer until you have experienced it. That’s when the penny drops and you realize that what we offer is not your normal kids club experience. Far from it!” Head of Family Growth, Simon Meeke

What makes the Explorers experience so special?

We’re passionate about family travel - unlocking experiences for families, for parents and for kids. We know for a family vacation to truly work, the needs of each member of your family must be met (and exceeded!) without compromise. How we achieve this is part of the magic of Explorers and is possible thanks to our dedicated team, decades of know-how and understanding of the needs of traveling families, and established relationships we have with all our partners.

Explorers is so much more than a kids club!

Our philosophy is to support each and every family with a personalized service which is perfectly aligned with their needs and delivers a seamless, memorable vacation where everyone feels totally supported. This is where the magic happens. Because when you are each in your element in a beautiful destination, those moments when you come together as a family and share your stories of wonder, of new found friends and new discoveries, you’ll realize what Explorers is really all about.

We’re with you every step of the way

It all starts from the moment you contact us. Our Travel Specialists are experts at understanding what families are really after, and because they have all visited and experienced our Explorers properties, they can share first-hand knowledge and personal recommendations.

Once you have decided on your perfect destination you’ll be introduced to our Guest Concierge team who will hold your hand through every aspect of the pre-travel process, ensuring everything is planned and prepared before you depart so you can switch off from the moment you arrive and enjoy your vacation.

This service offers so much value for families, as they anticipate all your needs in resort and have tried and tested solutions at their fingertips. Everything a family could need is thoughtfully considered — especially for those traveling with babies and toddlers. With a huge range of essentials available, there’s no need to overload your packing list or lug extra bags.

Restaurant recommendations and reservations – tick. Family excursions and local adventures – tick. A special birthday or celebration plan – tick. They are a blessing for busy parents and a mine of information on your chosen destination, and they will support you right up until you depart with a seamless and friendly service.

And relax…

Our dedicated Guest Relations Managers is ready to welcome you on your arrival in resort and help you settle quickly into your new home. They’ll be with you throughout your vacation, making sure all arrangements agreed before travel run seamlessly, and that parents and children know exactly what to expect from the fun-filled Explorers program.

Feedback from a guest who stayed with us in Pine Cliffs in summer 2025:

“The highlight of our trip was our visit to the Parelia Restaurant, the scuba diving and the surprise spa that Scott Dunn arranged for us for our anniversary. All of these things happened based on recommendations from the Scott Dunn Team. It genuinely felt like they wanted us to have the best possible vacation, so were regularly in touch recommending things for us to do and places to eat. Lucy, Issy, Brock, and the whole team at the kids club were truly wonderful in helping us arrange our vacation and looking after our children. A particular thanks, though, goes to Georgia, our Guest Relations Manager, who went above and beyond in so many ways to ensure we had the best vacation ever!”

First impressions matter

Kids have an innate intuition and first impressions matter. We make them the center of our universe in Explorers so their first experience and welcome from our team will build confidence and excitement and have them racing off each morning to join the fun.

For parents too – reassurance is essential to allow you to switch off, safe in the knowledge that they are in the best of hands. All the essential details, including daily activity plans, meeting times, packing lists and local excursions, are clearly laid out, with our team in touch throughout the day to share updates and photos of all the action.

The success of our Explorers vacations is thanks to the carefully curated program of activities and experiences which kids enjoy throughout their stay. Carefully designed spaces where curious kids can lose themselves with the latest toys and recharge their batteries provide a gateway to a thrilling program of highlight experiences based out and about in the resort. Bouncing from beach fun to treasure hunts to padel courts and climbing walls, age-appropriate schedules encourage wide-eyed wonder and self-discovery.

But don’t take our word for it…. Here’s what one discerning global traveler thought of their Explorers experience at Eagles Palace when they joined us in summer 2025:

“The Scott Dunn Explorers Kids Club at Eagles Palace is a standout for families and a lifeline for solo parents. Designed with thought and warmth, it caters to little ones from babies to tweens across bright, well-equipped spaces and age-appropriate programs. But what really sets it apart is the staff who are endlessly patient, genuinely engaged and seemingly unflappable…It’s the kind of place where children end the day salt-tousled, barefoot, and beaming — the only problem is trying to convince them to leave.” – The Standard, Eagles Resort, Greece: what happened when I took a solo parenting vacation with my one-year-old | The Standard

Feedback from Our Guests

  • “The team at the Explorers Club is incredible! The kids loved it, which really helped us feel less guilty about leaving them and enjoying ourselves for periods during our stay!”
  • “Explorers Club is really exceptional - the staff are brilliant, the comms with parents great, and the range of activities ideal. My only concern is what happens when they get too old for it!”
  • “The staff were lovely and the itinerary was varied and imaginative.
  • “The Explorer team were excellent, especially Lucy. Georgia on site was great at helping reorganize restaurant reservations around our plans.
  • “The kids club was excellent; with the activities they do being property excursions or activities instead of just time passing activities, it really makes a difference. Nikos in particular was just fantastic with my children.”
  • “Exceptional care, good comms and our child really enjoyed it.”
  • “I can't say enough good things about the Explorers Club team. My kids absolutely loved the club and the activities, which made for a stress free vacation for my wife and I which is so valuable. Stargazers is great too. To be able to have a couple of evenings to appreciate the fine dining experiences at the hotel really helped make the vacation special.”
  • “Facilities, staff, kids entertainment, all was fantastic and beyond expectations.”
  • “Staff were friendly, caring, lots of updates and photos during the day, great facilities, good food.”
