  Many people enjoy visiting foreign countries for extended periods and find that they can really get to know the country and its people best if they stay in a home, not a hotel. Greece is full of available villas, both on the mainland and on the islands. The prices range from moderate to luxury, so they are available to most everyone. There are a number of agencies in Greece, other parts of Europe and in the United States that specialize in providing tourists with this means of accommodation.

  Luxury Retreats offers a number of villas for rent in Greece, both on the mainland and on the various islands. Prices range widely, depending upon size, location and of course, amount of luxury offered. Most have at least three bedrooms regardless of cost, and many have five or six bedrooms, so that it would be possible for several families or a group to book together. Luxury Retreats offers a complimentary Guest Service Specialist to assist the guest with travel arrangements, car or tour booking, or any other need. Many of the villas have staff, but Luxury Villas will recommend sources of staffing for those that do not if desired. All arrangements can be made online or by phone. Luxury Villas is based in Canada but has agents in many other countries, including the United States.
