Top 5 Honeymoon Destinations in Greece

#1 Athens

Athens is not only the cosmopolitan capital of Greece but also a city that preserves numerous values of ancient Greek history. Here you can admire the ruins of the ancient city, enjoy the view of the Acropolis from your hotel room, spend hours strolling through the narrow streets of Plaka, start a new day with a cup of Greek coffee and dine in the rooftop restaurant under the starry sky and lights of the night city. What could be more romantic?!!

#2 Santorini

White houses with blue domes and cozy narrow streets, breathtaking views of the caldera and panoramic views of the sea with beautiful sunsets, all this made Santorini the number one destination for a romantic honeymoon. The most popular area is Oia, famous for its cave style suites with private jacuzzi or pools on the veranda and spectacular views of the caldera.

#3 Mykonos

The glamorous Mykonos is famous for its parties, various events and snow-white beaches with quiet bays and azure waters. The honeymoon here is suitable for both young couples who love fun and couples who appreciate a high level of service, first-class restaurants, and outstanding beaches. By the way, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones spent their “second honeymoon” on Mykonos.

#4 Rhodes

Rhodes attracts with its charm and fabulousness. The Old Town with an ancient castle, Gothic churches, and medieval buildings is a great place for romantic walks to celebrate your honeymoon. Rhodes is surrounded by greenery and flowers, where aromas mix together with the sea breeze. Lindos, Faliraki, and Kolymbia areas are famous for their long beaches and rocky bays, along with which hotels and villas are lined up.

#5 Crete

Crete is often called the most romantic island of Greece. Picturesque landscapes, the azure sea, a wide selection of hotels for honeymooners and secluded vacation spots make this place the right choice for a romantic getaway in Greece. One of the most romantic resorts in Crete is Elounda with fabulous architecture, Cretan hospitality, and sea views. Another favorite destination for honeymooners is Chania, the greenest part of the island surrounded by magnificent landscapes, the warm sea, amazing sandy beaches, cozy parks, original architecture, and mazes of narrow streets in the Old Town where you can walk for hours.
