However there’s a lot more to Greece than sun, sand and swimming. It has a unique and fascinating history and if ancient ruins happen to be your thing you won’t find finer examples anywhere else in the world. Crumbling structures can be found everywhere, from the tiniest village to the stunning capital city, and a trip to Athens is a must for anyone with an interest in ancient architecture.

Greece villas can be rented all over the mainland as well as in the many lively resorts on the islands so no matter what type of holiday you’re looking for you’ll find something to suit you in Greece.

If it’s a relaxing break of sightseeing, culture and delicious Greek cuisine you’re after, for why not check out Greece villas in Rhodes? The island fuses the best of old and new Greece and is just a short ferry trip from the mainland so is very easy to get to. Creatures of the night should look at Greece villas in some of the busier resorts like Kos or Mykonos. Countless bars, restaurants and clubs in these resorts keep the party going til the early hours and villas in these resorts are geared towards groups of young free and single twentysomethings looking for an alternative to standard apartment accommodation.

For a quieter, more serene Greek holiday, look at Greece villas in Alonissos, Paros or the stunningly beautiful island of Skopelos where much of the smash hit film Mamma Mia was filmed. Quaint little tavernas, gorgeous beaches and a real sense of what Greek village life is all about will make for an unforgettable holiday. In fact, you probably won’t want to leave!
