Greece is a favourite for package holidays. It has hundreds of islands, and each one feels different. Here is a quick guide to choosing the island that fits your trip when you search on loveholidays.

Crete: big, varied and great for families

Greece’s largest island has long sandy beaches, mountain villages, the Minoan palace at Knossos and lots of family-friendly resorts. It is big, so check where your hotel is compared with Heraklion or Chania airport.

Rhodes: history and sunshine

Rhodes Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Lindos has a hilltop acropolis above a beautiful bay. The island suits couples and families who want culture as well as beach time.

Corfu: green and relaxed

Corfu is lusher than most Greek islands, with Venetian-style Corfu Town and quiet coves in the north and west.

Kos and Zante

Kos is compact and easy to explore by bike. Zante (Zakynthos) is known for Navagio (Shipwreck) Beach and its sea turtles. Both have lively resorts as well as quieter ones.

Santorini: the bucket-list choice

Santorini’s cliff-top villages and sunsets are world famous. Hotels with caldera views cost more, so think about staying near the beach and visiting Oia for the sunset.

Tips for booking

  • Peak summer is the hottest and busiest time. May, June and September are often more comfortable.
  • Compare self-catering, half board and all inclusive. Many visitors enjoy eating out in local tavernas.
  • Read the hotel location details and recent guest reviews before you book.
  • loveholidays says its package holidays are ATOL protected. Check the booking confirmation for your protection details.
