Discover a wealth of beautiful destinations, unknown and off the beaten track
Greece proved to be a popular holiday destination for UK travellers throughout the summer of 2022 and it is no wonder why with its exquisite beaches, crystal-clear waters, dramatic coastlines and sensational Mediterranean cuisine.
The Greek Villas is delighted to reveal five lesser-known destinations travellers should consider exploring in 2023. From ancient Greek villages steeped in history, to family-run restaurants in quiet destinations, these tranquil islands showcase a blissfully slow pace of life and the perfect landscape in which to switch off for a well-deserved break. The Top Five...
1. Tinos
Tinos is one of the biggest and more developed islands of the Cyclades, yet it has managed to grow gracefully, its architectural style contrasting with the wild beauty of the landscape. Tinos has remained relatively unknown, despite its stunning coastline, verdant hills and 40 quaint villages overlooking the Aegean Sea and neighbouring islands.
Where to stay – Villa Marin
This six-bedroom villa is a fully rejuvenating summer home boasting a vast selection of premium facilities and amenities that promise to invigorate the body and soul through its numerous offerings. Next to the living room, guests will discover a spa area with a heated overflow pool, 4 hydro-massage seats, opposite swim jet and a hydrolysis and UV cleaning system.
2. Sifnos
The scenery of Sifnos is mesmerising, with whitewashed villages, spectacular waters and rolling mountains. Travellers will discover a coastline packed with charming coves with crystal clear waters, with quaint seaside villages scattered. Sifnos attracts the foodies with its rich cuisine and local produce and sophisticated travellers with its history of producing poets, great writers and philosophers since the Ancient times.
Where to stay – Villa Dali
Sleeping up to 14 guests, this gorgeous villa oozes minimalism and tranquillity. The artistic home is set on a large plot of land with olive trees, local herbs and flora, and boasts panoramic views across the Aegean. Fitness finatics can make use of the outdoor gym found under a shaded pergola, and those in need of relaxation can enjoy a cocktail by the fire pit.
3. Skiathos
Skiathos is a destination that first-time visitors fall in love with and return to time and again and is swiftly becoming one of the World’s most sought-after holiday destinations. Boasting picture-perfect views at every turn with its sunny beaches and crystal-clear waters. The seaside town provides a vibrant nightlife with several fantastic restaurants and bars lining the bustling marina.
Where to stay – Villa Earth
Villa Earth sleeps up to 12 people and offers a tranquil holiday home. Set within a lush pine forest, the villa is completely secluded and boasts uninterrupted ocean views in the most serene setting. The villa comes with a chef who will prepare nutritious, delicious Mediterranean meals.
4. Amorgos
Amorgos has remained unspoilt to mass tourism, thanks to not having an airport on the island and it taking roughly 7 hours to reach by ferry from Pireaus. As such, visitors will discover small, quaint bars and family-owned restaurants. The pace of life on Amorgos is blissfully slow and allows travellers to forget the worries of everyday life.
Where to stay – Villa Chelsea

Oozing tranquillity, guests will lounge outside, soaking in the beauty of the destination and watching the ever-changing colours of the evening sky.
5. Andros
Andros has a lush landscape with mountains, ravines, vines and hot springs and welcomes travellers to get lost within the endless waterfalls, caves and springs.
