Hotels in Greek Islands, Greece

The Greek Islands are scattered across the Aegean and Ionian Seas, famous for ancient ruins like the 5th-century BC Temple of Apollo on Delos, and whitewashed villages like Oia on Santorini with its volcanic caldera views. The Mediterranean climate brings hot, dry summers (80-90°F / 27-32°C) perfect for sailing the turquoise waters between the Cyclades, and mild winters (50-60°F / 10-15°C) ideal for hiking the Venetian fortress walls on Crete or sampling olive oil at family-run farms. If you want nightlife and beach clubs, head to Mykonos; for quieter hiking trails and Byzantine churches, go to Naxos or the Dodecanese's Patmos.
