Cyclades Islands
Island Hopping in the Cyclades
The Cyclades form a circle around the sacred, and uninhabited, island of Delos. Each island has its own strong identity so island-hopping brings with it new customs, significantly different landscapes and everything from peaceful days to lively nights. See below for our recommended itinerary. For the best connections, we suggest you start your trip on a Tuesday. Available from 14 May until 15 October. Flights are available on other dates. Inter island transfers by ferry are included, as are private car transfers between each hotel and the ferry port.
S a n t o r i n i
Santorini is the biggest island in the archipelago, rising dramatically out of deep blue sea. Start your holiday in tranquillity at the Notos Therme and Spa in rural Vlichada. This stylish hotel overlooks the small harbour and offers a free daily spa treatment. Nearby there are family run tavernas so you can meet the locals and drink the island’s fresh dry white wine.
N a x o s
This fertile island where olives, grapes and lemons grow in abundance, is one of the most beautiful in all the Cyclades with sandy beaches, Venetian architecture and fascinating ancient sites to explore. Check-in to the Naxos Palace, a traditionally designed hotel in a peaceful environment about 2.5 km from Naxos Town (Chora). If you want to explore further, the hotel can help organise bike and car rental.
M y k o n o s
Whitewashed houses with blue doors and shutters; churches, shrines and windmills adorn Mykonos. To add to the scenic delights be one of the first to stay at the new De.Light Boutique Hotel in Agios Yiannis and lap up views of the Aegean and enjoy the comfort of this five star hotel before stretching out on the beach and discovering the cosmopolitan night-life.
