ACCOMMODATION

We had great luck using Airbnb in Greece

In and Around Athens

+ Stay outside of the city center away from the Acropolis, the heavy tourist foot traffic, and the general target area for most pickpockets, and thieves.

+ Neighborhoods like Panormou or Zografou on the North East side of Athens allow you to stay close to the action with access to the metro. You’ll get a more local feel and still have plenty of options for restaurants, markets, cafes, and nightlife.

+ You can find Apartments on AirBnB that have a kitchen, balcony, great wifi, and a safe neighborhood. The one we found even had a tobacco shop next door where you can get bottles of “farmers wine” (Krassi Xima) they’re the ones in plastic bottles, for about 3 Euros)

O.D on Vitamin Sea & D

If you’re main objective is catch the maximum amount of sun. Situate yourself closer to the coast line in Ilioupoli or Glyfada. Wander through quiet neighborhoods, find local tavernas, bakeries, and cafes to cure your cravings. We fell in love with a cozy AIRBNB with a quiet rooftop perfect for watching the sunset and a view of sunset.

Or maybe you just want to hop from island to island. Each one is a little different with what it’s known for. Though it may be tempting to follow the crowds to Santorini or Mykonos, you’ll be hardpressed to find much more than that...Crowds. Make your way to Smaller Islands like Paros, or Naxos.

Word has it there are clusters of Digital Nomads gathering in the coastal city of Thessaloniki, and on islands like Rhodes and Crete.

Or maybe you just want to get away from it all in Lesvos.
