The Best Greek Islands for UK Holidaymakers

Greece has many islands, and each one has its own charm. Some are known for their beaches, while others are famous for their views, food or nightlife. The best choice depends on the kind of holiday you want.

Crete

Crete is the largest Greek island. It has sandy beaches, old towns, mountain villages and many hotels. It is a good choice for families, couples and groups of friends.

Rhodes

Rhodes is known for its sunny weather, beaches and rich history. Its Old Town has old stone walls and narrow streets. You can also visit Lindos, where white houses sit below a hilltop acropolis.

Corfu

Corfu is a green island with hills, bays and pretty coastal views. Its main town has old buildings, small streets and cafés. Around the island, you can find both quiet spots and lively resorts. 

Zante (Zakynthos)

Zante is loved for its clear water, sandy beaches and summer fun. Tsilivi and Kalamaki are worth a look if you want a family-friendly stay. Laganas is better known for its nightlife.

Kos

Kos is a good choice for a relaxed beach holiday. It has long sandy beaches, coastal paths and a town with old ruins and a pretty harbour. The island is fairly easy to explore.

Santorini

Santorini is famous for its white houses, blue domes, and sea views. Many visitors come to watch the sunset from its cliffside towns. It is a popular choice for couples, honeymoons and special trips. 

Mykonos

Mykonos is known for its whitewashed streets, sandy beaches and lively beach clubs. It is a popular spot for couples and groups of friends.

Athens

Athens is a great choice for a city break. You can visit the Acropolis, see the Parthenon and walk through the Plaka area. There are also shops, cafés and local food spots to enjoy.

All-Inclusive Holidays to Greece

An all-inclusive holiday can make planning your spending easier. Many hotels include meals and some drinks in the price. Some may also offer snacks, shows and other activities. Crete, Rhodes, Kos, Corfu and Zante are good places to start if you want an all-inclusive stay. They have a range of hotels to suit different needs. Santorini and Mykonos have fewer all-inclusive options, so you may want to look at bed and breakfast or half board instead.

Before you book, check what the hotel includes. Some deals cover more than others. Check meal times, drinks, snacks, and any extra charges. If you are travelling with children, check for kids' clubs and family pools. Couples may prefer a quiet or adults-only hotel.

Family Holidays in Greece

Greece is a good place for a family holiday. It has sunny beaches, warm summer weather, and plenty of outdoor activities. There are also plenty of hotels that welcome families. Crete, Rhodes, Kos, Corfu, and Zante are worth considering. Each offers a mix of beaches, family resorts and places to explore.

When choosing a hotel, look for features that make your stay easier. A children's pool, kids' club or family room can be helpful. You may also want a nearby sandy beach. A short transfer from the airport can make the first day less tiring, especially with young children.

Greece Holidays for Couples and Luxury Breaks

Greece has many places for a romantic trip. You can enjoy sea views, quiet beaches, sunset dinners and lovely hotels.

  • Santorini: Stay near the caldera, explore whitewashed villages and watch the sunset.
  • Mykonos: Enjoy stylish hotels, beach clubs and a lively town.
  • Crete: Choose a spa hotel, a quiet beach or an adults-only resort.
  • Rhodes and Corfu: Look for small hotels and calm coastal spots for a slower trip.

Luxury packages may include private transfers, large suites, spa visits or special dining options. Some rooms may also have private pools. These features depend on the hotel and package. Tell our team your dates, budget and reason for travelling. We can help you compare options for a honeymoon, anniversary or other special event.

Last-Minute Holidays to Greece

Want to get away soon? A last-minute holiday may be worth a look. Some hotels and travel companies still have rooms close to the departure date. This can sometimes lead to a good price, but there is no guarantee. Being flexible can give you more choice. Try comparing flights from different UK airports. Midweek travel may also offer more options. Compare hotel types and meal plans to see which deal works best.

Before booking, make sure your passport is ready. Check your flight details, hotel dates and what the package includes. If you have booked tours or transfers on your own, read their change rules too.

What Does a Greece Package Holiday Cost?

Zippy Holidays lists Greece holiday packages from £503 per person. Current offers include hotels in Athens, Santorini and Mykonos. Prices vary by hotel and travel date, so the final cost may be higher than the starting rate.

Check the full details to see what is included in your chosen offer. You should also plan for costs that may not be part of the package.

  • Hotel taxes: The hotel may charge a climate-related accommodation tax. The amount depends on the property and time of year. Check the latest rate before travel.

  • Activities: Boat trips, guided tours and other outings may cost extra.
  • Transport: Taxis, car hire and ferry tickets may not be included.
  • Travel insurance: Insurance can protect you against unexpected costs.
  • Spending money: Cards are widely used in Greece, but some cash can be useful for small shops and local taxis.

Greece Travel Essentials

Here’s what you must know.

Passport and Entry Rules

British citizens do not usually need a visa for short tourist visits to Greece. However, your passport must meet the entry rules. These rules can change, so check the latest GOV.UK travel advice for Greece before leaving the UK.

Health and Travel Insurance

It is wise to buy travel insurance before your trip. A UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) may help you get some state healthcare in Greece under the rules that apply. It does not cover every cost and is not a replacement for travel insurance.

Currency

Greece uses the euro (€). Check your bank's fees for card payments abroad before you travel. You may also want to carry a little cash for small purchases.

Getting Around

Taxis and pre-booked transfers are useful for trips from the airport. Hiring a car can help you explore larger islands at your own pace. Ferries also link many Greek islands and mainland ports. Check travel times and ferry schedules before setting off. Services may be less frequent outside the busy summer months.
