Luxury Holidays
in Greece & Islands
More About Greece & Islands
Greece has so much history, a vibrant, energetic culture, beautiful beaches, crystal clear blue waters, and friendly and welcoming locals so it‘s easy to see why it has been a go-to luxury destination for holidaymakers year after year. The choice of where to visit in Greece may be the hardest decision you have to make about your whole luxury holiday experience! From the historic Plaka quarter in Athens where colourful antique shops, market stalls, and tavernas abound, to the more modern Athens; or the beautiful and unspoiled beaches of the peninsula to the Greek Islands that individually peddle their own unique charms and attraction... there is so much to see and do that you will want to visit again and again. Greece was 2nd in the world for Blue Flag-award beaches in 2019 with Crete and the Halkidiki peninsula in northern Greece having the most Blue Flags. Halkidiki is home to sparkling, crystal clear waters and offers beautiful pine forests, a rugged coastline, and the UNESCO World Heritage Site Mount Athos. The largest island is Crete which enjoys a long summer season making it a great choice for sun-worshippers. It offers a diverse range of luxury places to stay so you will definitely find something that suits your needs - perhaps staying in a small traditional village setting or enjoying the sights and sounds of a larger, more cosmopolitan resort. Santorini is a popular choice for couples seeking a romantic holiday destination in Greece and it boasts a wide selection of luxury boutique hotels with arched roofs and blue domes dominating the skyline. Oia has amazing views of the Caldera and a good choice of restaurants and shops which line the pedestrianised cliff-top walkway. Skiathos is great for couples as well as families as it has over 60 sandy beaches on its 45km of coastline. Skiathos Town has a charming Old Port area but it comes alive in the evening with a buzzing nightlife vibe. Hiring a car is a simple process and one we can help you with. It‘s a great way to explore Greece and allows you to reach some secluded villages and hidden gems of beaches you wouldn't otherwise see.
