The celebrity playground?..........
As you step off the boat or hydrofoil that has brought you to Hydra, pause for a second and listen.
The chattering of your fellow passengers, a child shouting to their friend and then it dawns upon you. There is no traffic noise.
You look for your hotel on a sign and a smiling Greek man has it in one hand and a rein holding a donkey in the other. Yes that will be carrying your luggage to your accommodation.
Its part of the charm that has enticed so many – Leonard Cohen, Mick Jagger, Pink Floyd, Sophia Loren, over the years.
The amphitheatrical harbour surrounds the expensive yachts moored up as their inhabitants partake in the food and drink served up by a variety of tavernas, restaurants and bars.
Its not really a beach island given that the majority are pebbled but excursion boats depart from the port and make the tour of the island stopping at each of them along the way. The best beach is probably Vlychos which has tavernas for refreshments.
Please be aware that due to ferry and flight timings, a stay overnight in Athens may be required in either direction.

Happy People
The team have booked three very different holidays for me, two for a couple and one for a group of nine. They listened to our requirements and used their expert knowledge of Greece to provide us with several options from which to choose. I found them to be very professional, nothing is too much trouble and they strive to find a good deal. I would not hesitate to recommend them. The business has booked me a few different holidays ranging from 2 weeks away in the sun to City Breaks. They have a great knowledge and understanding of your needs and requirements when booking a holiday. They always try to accommodate your budget and work extremely hard to get you what you're asking for. They have an extremely good knowledge of the Greek Islands and never fail when recommending specific places. I would always recommend the team as they are helpful and professional at all times. |
Fantastic service. I explained what kind of holiday I was looking for and my budget and they came up with different options to choose from. Nothing was too much trouble and the communication was first class. I would definitely recommend and would not hesitate in using this 5 star service again.
