With enchanting views of the Aegean, whitewashed Cycladic villages littered with pops of vibrant blue, and some of the world's most significant historical ruins, it should come as no surprise that Greece is an immensely popular destination for honeymoons and romantic getaways. Greece's sun-soaked shores promise to behold the perfect honeymoon experience for newlywed couples, and a Greek adventure can easily be tailored to suit your precise travel desires.
Whether you're looking to unwind on some of Europe's most awe-inspiring beaches, explore Delphi's ancient ruins, or wander the vibrant streets of Athens, Greece contains something for every traveler. One of the most popular ways to enjoy a honeymoon in Greece is through a spot of island hopping; navigate the country's countless small beaches and hidden coves by embarking on a multi-island honeymoon adventure. Greece is a great place to spend your first days as a married couple.
Whilst warm evenings, stunning views, and enchanting mythical lore make anywhere in Greece suitable for an unforgettable honeymoon, there are nonetheless certain destinations whose reputation for facilitating unforgettable romantic experiences really is exceptional. It's no secret that Santorini is a haven for couples seeking an intimate getaway and with Oia's white and blue buildings, Amoudi Bay's gently lapping waves, and a host of local vineyards to explore, there's no shortage of delightful moments to enjoy together. If the charm of Santorini fails to spark your sense of wanderlust, consider visiting the often-overlooked island of Ios. One of Greece's most charming islands, Ios is an idyllic wonderland of archeological sites and unspoiled beaches just waiting to be discovered.
Many couples choose to spend their honeymoons in Greece because of the country's dazzling array of five-star properties and luxury hotels. If you're craving a truly tranquil getaway, then there's no better option than renting a private villa. With the help of housekeeping or butler services, a villa rental can be the perfect way to escape the crowds and indulge in personalized service throughout your honeymoon. For couples keen to enjoy a romantic experience without having to lift a finger, we recommend staying in one of Athens', Santorini's, or Mykonos' five-star resorts, where the promise of an elevated experience awaits.

Without a doubt, Mykonos and Santorini are the two biggest draws for honeymooning couples in Greece, and with each boasting gorgeous beaches, fabulous nightlife, and an abundance of luxury hotels, it isn’t hard to see why. Every traveler has to visit Mykonos at least once in their lifetime, and there’s no better excuse than a honeymoon.
Santorini is the most popular honeymoon destination in Greece, having earned a reputation as the country’s capital for romantic escapes. An island destination boasting the whitewashed towns of Fira and Oia, Santorini is a floating slice of paradise in the glistening Aegean. Whats more, the vibrant blue roofs of Santorini’s domed buildings provide the perfect backdrop to some awe-inspiring honeymoon photographs.
Both Mykonos and Santorini boast a staggering selection of luxury hotels and five-star properties – many of which have been designed to maximize a sense of romance. World-famous and consistently popular, Santorini’s cave hotels offer intimate hideaways with unparalleled sea views, whilst the five-star offerings in Mykonos promise to delight and impress even the most experienced traveler.
Greece experiences balmy temperatures in the summer months, so it’s always worth considering accommodations with the added luxury of a private pool. In Santorini and Mykonos, you’ll also discover the most dramatic sunsets in Europe. The ferry from Mykonos to Santorini takes no more than three hours, so combining the two islands is very tempting and ideal for Greek honeymoons.
Athens, with its ancient ruin-dotted landscape of sun-baked buildings and towering cliffs, is not only a great place to indulge in Greece’s cultural offerings but is also the best place to ensure timely transfers to the Cyclades. The city is a fantastic introduction to the country and is a popular spot to begin a honeymoon adventure.
History buffs are in for a treat in Greece, as the country is home to a truly mind-blowing array of well-preserved ancient monuments and infrastructural insights into the country’s vast and influential cultural heritage. The Acropolis, in Athens, is the finest example of Greece’s historical offerings, but across the country, travelers will find a diverse range of sites that are no less exciting.
Situated high on Mount Parnassus, the sanctuary of Delphi is another immensely popular site of historical significance in Greece, and the purported home of the mythical Oracle of Delphi – a supposedly omniscient prophet whose wide-ranging predictions can either be read as the communicated words of the god Apollo, or simply the drug-fuelled ramblings of an isolated individual. However you choose to understand Delphi, a visit to this spectacular spot won’t be forgotten easily.
It’s not just testaments to the country’s ancient civilizations that make Greece such an enjoyable country to explore; Athens, in particular, is also a fabulous place to indulge in shame-free shopping, with streets of high-end boutiques and recognizable brand names. Just be sure to leave enough room in your case – you’ll want to pick up some souvenirs.
The final feature of Greek culture that keeps visitors coming back is the light and refreshing flavors of the country’s national cuisine. Whilst each island and region has its own take on the Greek palette, wherever you travel you can expect nothing but fresh ingredients and back-to-basics culinary creations. From Souvlaki and Gyros to Mousaka and Spanakopita, Greece’s specialty delicacies offer a taste sensation that promises to delight any palette.
