Recently, there have been several email offers landing in my inbox for Greek getaways. My husband and I visited Greece and the island of Mykonos in 2003 pre-kids and everytime I see a picture of the Greek islands, I swoon. Words can not describe how beautiful and blue the Aegean sea is against the stark contrast of white buildings perched high atop of camel colored mountains. The Greek islands are a spectacular sight. Here are a few amazing deals on luxury properties that will get you speaking greek in no time. Most of these deals appear to be best for couples, or smaller families. If do plan on bringing the kids, make sure you check with Jetsetter or the hotel directly to ensure they are family friendly before you book. Have you stayed at these hotels? Would love to hear your experience!
Opa!
