Booking Tips
Get the best deals and avoid common mistakes.
Book Santorini and Mykonos accommodation 3-6 months ahead for July-August - the best caldera-view properties sell out by February for peak summer
Athens offers much better value than the islands - use it as a base and take day/overnight trips rather than island-hopping accommodation costs
Check direct hotel websites after finding a good deal on Booking.com - many Greek hotels offer discounts for direct bookings
Shoulder season (May-June, September-October) typically offers 30-40% lower accommodation prices than July-August with similar or better weather
Self-catering studios are excellent value on Greek islands - a kitchen reduces daily costs significantly and many include terraces with views
