If we had to choose one word to sum up luxury Greek holidays, it would be scenic. With each and every island blessed with its own unique vistas – from the world-renowned sunsets on Santorini to the beautiful Kefalonian backdrops which starred in Captain Corelli’s Mandolin – each location is a feast for the eyes.

But to focus solely on the landscapes, we’d be overlooking Greece’s rich heritage. Dating back some four thousand years, this country has amassed a wealth of archaeological treasures in the form of buildings, ruins, palaces and artefacts. Unique architecture, influenced by occupying crusaders, and rustic townhouses sit side by side – making even a stroll through the cobbled lanes a rewarding experience for the keen-eyed traveller. For foodies, Greece is a lavish affair wherever you dine. Local tavernas serve up fresh dishes packed full of flavour – often using recipes handed down through the generations. Gourmet restaurants pop up on the streets of the islands capitals or nestled among olive groves or paired with well-established wineries.

We’ve handpicked some of the best islands for you. Here you’ll find luxury hotels, secret coves, a wealth of history and culture and cuisine which varies from island to island. The only difficulty will be choosing which Greek island to visit first.
