A Week in Greece — Five-Star All-Inclusive Resort for Two

Seven nights on a Greek island for you and a companion — turquoise sea, whitewashed villages and a resort where every detail is looked after.

Greek islands (Crete or Rhodes) 7 nights · all-inclusive
The experience

Your holiday, in full

The winner of our 1st prize can choose one of three dream holidays for two — this is the Greek islands option, for anyone who dreams of long, warm days by the Aegean.

You'll fly out to Crete or Rhodes, be driven straight to a five-star resort perched above the sea, and settle into a sea-view suite with a terrace big enough to have breakfast on. The pace is entirely up to you: sunrise swims, a novel by the pool, a slow dinner watching the sun drop into the water.

The resort is chosen for its kind service, beautiful gardens and genuinely lovely food, so all you have to do is arrive and let it look after you.

How the trip unfolds

  1. 1Day 1

    Arrival & sunset welcome

    Flight, private transfer and check-in, then a welcome drink on your terrace as the sun sets over the Aegean.

  2. 2Day 2

    Slow day by the sea

    Late breakfast, a swim in the sea, hours on a lounger. Dinner at the resort's main restaurant with local wine.

  3. 3Day 3

    Whitewashed village day

    An easy morning trip to a hillside village — coffee in the square, a proper Greek lunch, back in time for the pool.

  4. 4Day 4

    Couples' spa afternoon

    A traditional hammam ritual and a full-body massage each, followed by fresh herbal tea in the relaxation garden.

    A small-boat tour along the coast, stopping at hidden coves for swimming, with lunch served on deck.

  6. 6Day 6

    A day that's entirely yours

    Nothing scheduled. Read, nap, snorkel, take a cooking class, or simply do very little.

  7. 7Day 7

    Farewell dinner

    A candlelit dinner on the terrace overlooking the sea — the kind of evening you'll remember for years.

  8. 8Day 8

    Fly home

    A generous breakfast, one last walk along the shore, then a private transfer back to the airport.
