THE GREAT DEBATE: THE GREEK ISLANDS<br />
Elite Suites<br />
Aqua Blu Boutique Hotel & Spa<br />
“You can unearth treasures in Kos”<br />
“Rhodes is best explored by foot”<br />
“My all-time favourite Greek island has to be Rhodes.<br />
The Elite Suites in Ixia Bay is a firm favourite of mine as it<br />
has a sunset bar, which is the best place to go for sunset<br />
cocktails. From here you can arrange a private yacht<br />
rental to take in the unique views of the beautiful coast. We<br />
hopped in a taxi and arrived in no more than 10 minutes at<br />
the beautiful old town, and it was easy to get the taxi back<br />
to our hotel too. There are little streets to explore, where<br />
you’ll find lots of lovely traditional Greek restaurants and<br />
boutiques for a fun day out feasting and shopping.”<br />
“Given that it’s the third largest of the Dodecanese Islands,<br />
there are many ancient sites to explore and activities to<br />
keep the family busy in Kos, which is why I love it. Close to<br />
Kos Town, which has plenty of shops and bars, is Lambi<br />
Beach, a family-friendly beach with parasols and sunbeds<br />
that has something for everyone.”<br />
“If you’re travelling as a couple then I suggest you stay at<br />
Aqua Blu Boutique Hotel & Spa, as it will definitely have the<br />
peace and quiet that you’re looking for.”<br />
“One thing unique to Kos that I don’t think many of our<br />
guests realise is that you can combine a holiday here with<br />
Turkey, as there’s a catamaran that runs daily with just an<br />
hour and a half voyage!”<br />

HOP AROUND THE GREEK ISLANDS!<br />
Why choose one Greek island when you can combine<br />
several? Our Personal Travel Planners are experts at<br />
creating tailor-made luxury holidays that take in more<br />
than one destination, so that not only will you have a<br />
varied holiday, you don’t have to miss out on anything!<br />
You may wish to Coast the Cyclades and take in the glittering<br />
sights of Mykonos with its famous windmills, the whitewashed<br />
wonder of Oia in Santorini, and the beaches and local fishing<br />
villages of coastal Crete. This can include a half day trip to the<br />
uninhabited island of Delos, home to the ancient and mystical<br />
Temple of Apollo.<br />
You could Discover the Dodecanese by combining the islands<br />
of Rhodes, Symi & Kos, exploring medieval attractions and a<br />
sacred monastery, discover a natural sponge-making industry,<br />
and visit the Tree of Hippocrates.<br />
Or you could head Into the Ionian Islands, basing yourself in<br />
Corfu to take a luxury catamaran cruise to the smaller unspoilt<br />
islands of Paxos and Antipaxos that are riddled in Greek<br />
mythology, before finishing up in blissful Parga.<br />
A 10 night luxury island-hopping holiday in the Greek Islands starts from £3,735 per person.<br />
