My husband and I are planning a trip from the U.S. to Greece with two other couples (early May) and we would love to be able to rent a villa on the beach in Naxos for 5 or 6 days. Our trip is beginning to take shape and it looks something like this:
~ Arrive in Athens evening of May 5
~ Stay overnight in Athens, fly to Istanbul May 6
~ Leave Istanbul May 9 (would really appreciate advice on how best to get to
Naxos without having to route back to Athens)
~ Stay in Naxos (on or very close to the beach) for 5 to 6 nights
~ Head to Napflion on May 14
~ Stay in Napflion 3 days
~ Head to Athens May 17
~ Depart Athens to return to the U.S. on May 19 (evening of)

Our budget for the villa would be somewhere between $70 to $100 per night per couple.

Thanks in advance for your recommendations!

Don't forget to "think" in Euro, not Dollars.

Thank you! Good point about the Euros. I know this was discussed (to some degree) in another thread but would it be wise to carry cash or would it be better to use our cash cards at the ATMs there?

I use my ATM card the same as at home — no need to carry large amounts of cash. European banks don't charge for ATM withdrawals, but your bank may.

And be sure to notify your providers of your intention to use your ATM and Credit Cards in whichever countries you'll be visiting.
