Are you looking for holiday villas in Greece?

What makes holiday villas in Greece different from those in more mainstream villa holiday areas is that they are mostly one-off houses, often on the edge of small villages or even out in the wilds, rather than the large scale villa developments and complexes found elsewhere. This is true for both villas in the Greek islands, like Corfu or Crete, and villas in the Greek mainland.

The positive side of this is that it's easy to find an interesting house or villa that puts you in touch with local life and the whole Greek experience. The downside is that you probably won't get the swimming pools, tennis courts and golf courses taken for granted in villas in other big tourist destinations – Orlando it ain't!

It's the simplicity of a Greek villa holiday that appeals to many people – millions of them every summer. But the nice thing is that away from the tourist hotspots the crowds are mostly spread fairly thin, and don't come in cars to clog the often narrow roads, so you seldom feel the pressure of people. If your chosen beach is too crowded, there's usually another one round the corner.
