Travel to Greece — Couples Edition!
Wether you want to relax, explore, or shop in Greece I have put together a list of my top-notch activities to try something new with your partner and spark some romance! These 5 bucket-list items will fill your vacation with unforgettable experiences across Santorini and Mykonos.
VENETSANOS WINERY
See the iconic caldera views from this private winery perched perfectly on the side of a cliff in Santorini, Greece.
Formed into nature, Venetsanos Winery was built in 1949 and became the first-ever industrial winery in Santorini, Greece. Made famous for its stunning architecture, there’s a museum that explains the development of winemaking in Santorini. With some of the best views on this Cyclades Island, Venetsanos Winery is not only a tourist favorite, but it’s one of the only wineries that the locals will visit.
Take part in a couples wine tasting to taste some of the extraordinary flavors curated locally from vineyards in Greece that will have your yearning for more! There’s no better backdrop than their exclusive and unobstructed sunset views for an unforgettable evening.
KATIKIES MYKONOS
If you’re thinking of the traditional whitewashed buildings pictured all over Greece, Katikies is the place for you! It’s cute all-white brunch spot is perfect for breakfast with your partner to start your day. The authentic, au naturel decor features scattered blue and white pillows and ivory umbrellas to create the perfect setting in front of the Mediterranean Sea.
The views speak for itself with its sand-surrounded pool, sun beds on the beach, and a private infinity pool. It is the ideal location to spend time relaxing and soaking up some much needed Vitamin D!
Transition to their intimate restaurant under the stars, Mikrasia, for mouthwatering cuisine, their best wine pairing, and a romantic ambiance.
PASAJI
We discovered Pasaji restaurant on a walk into Ornos from our hotel, so it should almost be explained as the Mykonos gem that found us. We were immediately, absolutely obsessed!
This open-air shisha lounge is complete with a hookah bar (literally) where you can pick your favorite hookah via color as well as the flavor for your shisha alongside beachside cocktails. The colorful hookahs are eye candy while you sit under the Mediterranean sun on your day beds, loungers and bean bag couches.
Pasaji is trendy, fun and has a great atmosphere in a great location! It’s a must-see when visiting downtown Ornos and is great for an afternoon stop or a late night afterparty.
NAMMOS BEACH CLUB
Looking to spend your day shopping until you drop? Visiting Nammos Village is a definite must-do!
Nammos Village includes luxury shopping through an outdoor mall of authentic whitewashed Grecian buildings, home to brands such as Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Rolex, and Bulgari. Complete your shopping trip with a beach day at Nammos Beach Club by renting the private day beds (where you might spot Leonardo Di Caprio or Ariana Grande) or having a fabulous lunch with wagyu beef steak, truffle pasta, sea bass, and an ice-carved boat full of fresh sushi.
FISH PEDICURE
You read it right — if you’re looking for a unique spa experience for guys and girls alike, head to Oia in Santorini for a fish pedicure!
Tiny red garra fish will swarm your feet as you place them in a basin, nibbling the dead skin off of your feet.
It honestly is the weirdest and funniest sensation. I freaked out and almost didn’t put my feet in the water. I literally made my assistant hold my hand, LOL. However, once I overcame the ticklish sensation, I was finally able to relax and enjoy the experience. It’s still a memory that I look back on and laugh at, so it’s a great experience to try out while your in Greece.
