Holidays
SunIsle Holidays are a Greek Island specialist offering over 260 villas,
apartments and family-run hotels on 18 Greek Islands ranging from the
well-known and well-loved islands, such as Corfu, Kefalonia, Zante and
Crete to smaller, less-developed gems such as Paxos, Lefkada (Lefkas)
and Skopelos, along with try-to-spot-another-tourist islands, such as
Kea, Milos and Andros.
Property Selection
All properties are handpicked for their quality, value and location, typically
set away from the main tourist resorts but still convenient for shops and
tavernas. As an example of our product selection, 3 SunIsle villas were
featured in the Daily Telegraph “10 Best Greek Villas for 2009”, - Villa
Sweetwater on Zante, Villa Eleni on Corfu and The Canava on Santorini.
Customer Service
SunIsle is firmly focused on customer service and care, with no detail
for that “perfect holiday” being too small; the testimonials and high
repeat booking levels bear strong proof of this. All properties have been
personally visited by the customer service team who can use their
first-hand experience to help you select your holiday.
Choosing Your Holiday
Our priority is to find the perfect holiday for you. We can help in many
ways, from just finding your accommodation and supporting you
throughout your stay with a meet-and-greet airport services, to finding
and booking flights, car hire, transfers and other services that take the
hassle and worry out of booking. For your complete peace of mind, we
are ATOL bonded and all of our holidays are covered by Supplier Failure
Insurance. In this brochure, we have provided an introduction to our
holidays and show that we can meet your needs, whether you are
looking for a family holiday, a romantic getaway, a relaxing holiday with
friends or a Greek Island adventure.

Villas for couples
Retreat Beach Villa
Guests are always impressed by the classic design of this
open-plan, fully air-conditioned villa that overlooks the sea
beyond. No compromise has been made on facilities - the villa
even has satellite TV and a DVD player. Outside, the private pool
(with jacuzzi) faces towards the sea and has a well-furnished
terrace. The pergola-covered front terrace has an outside dining
table and brick built barbeque for enjoying meals al-fresco.
The famous Caretta beach is a few minutes walk away.
Holidays for Couples
romance, relaxation & peace
The Greek islands offer romance, relaxation and peace; all
ideal ingredients in a perfect holiday for two. Although our
properties are located outside the larger resorts, allowing you
to enjoy the daytime peace, they are close enough to bars
and restaurants to experience a little “living it up” at night.
Kalami Bay, Corfu
Kalami Bay Studios and Apartments
A panoramic setting with fabulous sea views and a stunning pool have made these a firm
favourite. Occupying one of the prettiest spots on Corfu, this family-run development of just six
studios and six apartments enjoys an elevated position just behind the harbour. Although the
waterfront and famous beach, with all its facilities, is a gentle 300 metre walk away, many guests
choose to while away their days next to the large swimming pool that has extensive sun terraces
furnished with loungers and umbrellas. The apartments are spacious and bright with high
ceilings, offering a well-equipped kitchen, a modern bathroom with bath and shower and an
air-conditioned twin bedroom with French windows that open onto a private balcony.
Santorini
Equally well-known for its natural beauty, whitewashed buildings,
sunsets… and high prices, the SunIsle portfolio to Santorini
instead concentrates on providing the highlights of the island at
reasonable prices. Consequently, we have handpicked properties
that are outside the expensive resorts but are 5-10 minutes walk
into the main areas for convenience of shops, restaurants and
bars. Further savings can be made by using low-cost airlines,
such as EasyJet, that fly directly to Santorini. The romance of
Santorini is tailor-made for couples looking for a special place to
spend time together. We have taken a similar fresh approach
to Mykonos.
Popular Family Holidays
for everyone
Your Greek hosts are very welcoming and friendly towards children, making
the islands an ideal place to take your family for their summer holiday. Our
properties have many features for children, from shallow-ends in the pools
to DVD players, and our local reps can advise on days out that will keep
everyone entertained.

traditional charms with the required services of a modern hotel,
such as TV and internet connection. We recommend you

Family-run Hotels

We don’t offer any “resort” hotels as we generally find them
to be impersonal and crowded. In contrast, guests report that
the owners of our small, family run hotels really care about
your holiday experience and are full of local insider tips to help
you get the most from your holiday. Just don’t expect an
in-house tribute band…
Hotel Orsa, Skiathos
The charming Hotel Orsa is so deliciously tucked away you would have to be looking for
it in order to notice it. Even when you do find it, the hotel does not look at all out of place,
as it is beautifully designed and pleasantly small in scale. The pretty tiled roofs with their
overhanging eaves and the small but elegant cast-iron balconies make the Orsa look more
like a rather smart town house than a hotel. Once inside, the hotel feels just as intimate with
some lovely details and pretty touches making it altogether quite stylish. Some of the 18
rooms benefit from a balcony enjoying fabulous views of the coast or the harbour.
Santorini
Blue Palace Bay Hotel, Santorini
Blue Palace Bay sits in a privileged location just a few meters from
the black, sandy beach of Perivolos. You will be welcomed to
these spacious air-conditioned apartments with a complimentary
bottle of wine - a nice personal touch from the family owners.
The hotel itself features a large swimming pool with jacuzzi and
a children’s pool.

all have their own charms and
are all selected for being away

as exploring the Greek Islands from the sea, pausing
along the coast at coves, inlets and beaches, perhaps
for a refreshing drink or a bite to eat. From pedaloes
to motor boats, we can help with arrangements.
Hiking and Walking - Many of our guests enjoy
exploring the islands by foot, enjoying the natural
beauty in places where the roads don’t venture.
You will be rewarded with memorable views
and photo opportunities aplenty. Our staff can
recommend walks of different lengths in the varied
landscapes of the Greek islands.
Keeping the Kids Amused - As you can imagine,
we are really enthusiastic about doing our research
into activities from water parks to family-friendly
beaches… and are able to advise on keeping the
costs to a minimum on these days out.
Weddings - We can make all arrangements,
from accommodation and flights for your guests to
booking the reception, arranging flowers and advising
on menus to make your wedding unforgettable.
Something Unexpected? - With our local
experience and contacts, we can arrange (or advise

schools to horse riding, diving to mountain biking,
bird watching to olive pressing.
