5 days to spend in Greece on honeymoon. Is all 5 in Santorini too much? Didn't think much of Athens when there and don't want to island hop if it's all generally the same.

Strong preference for SPG/Marriott/Hyatt hotels.

We spent 5 days in Santorini. It was nice but definitely not necessary to spend that much time. Think we did the main visits in 2 short days and then spent a lot of time relaxing at the pool
Vedema was nice but if I were to go again I would try the mystique

Thanks. Mystique looks nice but I just can't imagine spending 35k per night for anything unless I had an insane amount of points.

Santorini is better than Mykonos in my opinion but they are actually pretty different in terms of vibe so you might consider adding a couple days there. Agree that 5 days in Santorini (or myk!) Is more than needed to do everything worth doing, but maybe you just want to relax and it's fine. Rhodes is supposed to be amazing too. Skip Athens though from everything I heard from friends who went there.

Go to Chania if you can. My favorite esp the old town area. It’s a ferry ride away and can be covered in two days.

Fly straight to Crete

Crete is awesome. maybe split the time?

There are some nice hotels in Crete but all at least an hour from Herkalion. Is it worth it for a couple days?

*Heraklion

Definitely. Santorini for the beach, Chania / Crete for beach + old town vibe + culture + food with half the price of Santorini. I actually prefer Crete.

Highly recommend blue palace. It’s beautiful, we got upgraded, and worth the drive. You can hire a taxi from the airport to the hotel. We had a great time and will be very relaxing for a honeymoon. I think 5 days in Santorini is way too much

How much is a taxi? If I'm heading out there I'll go to Domes of Elounda. Only 45k Marriott pts/night.

Definitely go to Ios if you and your fiancé want to experience the wildest group of Irish + Swedish 18 year olds you'll ever see. Seriously, go to watch if you won't partake. It will blow your mind.

You could do half a day wandering around Ios, half a day boat cruise, half a day wine tasting...could fill up a lot of your time with different activities outside your hotel room if you don’t want to island hop.

Meteora. It is life changing
