Bookings Soar with Retreats in Greece’s Top Easter Destinations

It is no surprise that accommodation in several Greek Easter destinations is experiencing 90% occupancy rates, while a local saying encourages Greeks to, traditionally, celebrate Easter in small villages outside urban centers. However, the current accommodation prices especially in the country’s most famous Easter-destinations do raise some eyebrows.

Hydra island, well-connected to Athens and nestled in the scenic Saronic archipelago, leads the way anticipating a 97% occupancy, especially during the Easter weekend May 3-5, marking the peak of Easter celebrations. It is worth mentioning that prices for short-term rental properties in Hydra during the aforementioned period start from €1.055 per night.

For the rest of the Saronic islands (Aegina, Spetses, Poros, Agistri, Salamina etc.), high demand is observed, with prices starting at €50 and possibly exceeding €300 for a one-night stay.

Moving to Corfu island, renowned for its longstanding festive traditions and popularity as an Easter destination, the occupancy rate stands at 90% accompanied by short-term lease property prices starting at €780 per night.

Regarding the picturesque Cycladic island of Tinos, accommodation bookings soar for the festive period of Easter, May 3-6, presenting an 85% occupancy rate, which, according to local tourism professionals is attributed to the island’s unique and lively Easter traditions. Prices for short-term lease properties begin at €305 per night, during the Easter weekend, while a family of four can book accommodation in the island’s hotels for the same price.
