It is our first time in Greece and have decided to visit Kefalonia.
We found a lovely villa in Divarata, which is around 6 minute drive from Myrtos beach and under 20 mins from Asos and eastern coastal towns. Is this a good place to stay? I haven’t heard much about it.

For context:

Unfortunately a lot of the hotels / villas in Fiskardo and Asos, which we hear are the most unique and beautiful parts of Kefalonia, are sold out because we are kind of booking without much time in advance.

Ideally we didn’t want to stay in Argostoli because it seems like it’s less magical in terms of natural beauty? We will probably drive down for a day or an evening though at minimum. Also, we didn’t want to stay in areas that are all about resorts and less about the beach if that makes sense? From research and friends we were told the north and northeast was the best place for us.

Hi! I’m planning on taking a 6 night trip to Greece soon and want to visit Athens Paros and Milos. How would you divide the nights between these places? Would it be better to stick to two places? Athens is probably a given because that’s where I will be flying into and out of, so if I did just two places it would be Athens and Paros or Milos. How would you divide the time? Open to other places suggestions as well. Thank you!

Need suggestions for a day on Naxos. We’re arriving by ferry but won’t have a car. Open to having an itinerary made for us. Both 64, beaches, shopping and traditional tavernas are our vibe

I'm travelling on my own to Skiathos in 2 weeks time. I lost my friend I used to holiday with 10 years ago and it's the first time I've been back to a Greek Island since then. I've had one or two holidays on my own and the part I find hardest is eating out on my own. Has anyone any tips on the best way round it? I'm also concerned about leaving any valuables, like my phone on the beach if I go for a swim in the sea.
