Remember the phrase about Greece from the hero of Chekhov’s play “The Wedding”: “Everything is there.” We can clarify that the promised land of Greece, blessed by the gods, offers its guests a fantastically pleasant holiday. The country captivates tourists with its picturesque nature, the unique spirit of ancient culture, clean beaches, and delicious Mediterranean dishes. At the same time, it offers various options for renting accommodation while traveling.
Most modern tourists prefer to do without the services of travel agencies and organize their holidays on their own, saving significantly on this. Buy tickets without commissions, book accommodation that meets your needs and requirements..
Accommodation in Greece in apartments: comfort and benefits guaranteed
Using the appropriate filters on our website, you can select and book luxurious but inexpensive apartments for rent, from 50 euros per day and at prices above 1000 euros. This could be an elite or small but cozy cottage, near a noisy beach or in a secluded area.
We will help you rent comfortable housing in any corner of the country. Ellinhom employees select apartments by directly contacting landlords, so you don’t have to pay a commission to an intermediary. This is much more profitable than using the services of agencies.
Living in an apartment has its significant advantages:
- large space, magnificent bedrooms, excellent furniture, beautiful grounds, usually close to the sea;
- comfort and amenities (many houses have their own swimming pool, tennis court, solarium, parking, etc.);
- privacy (without prying eyes and noisy neighbors);
- beneficial for a family or company holiday. The end result is cheaper than staying in a hotel.
Renting an apartment allows the modern tourist to abandon the classic option of mass leisure and enjoy complete freedom of relaxation, regardless of the excursion schedule and hotel regime.

Using the services of the site, you can book and rent an apartment in Greece at very competitive prices. We offer many budget accommodation options that will allow you to spend your holiday or business trip in Greece at minimal cost.
You have the opportunity to choose a region, depending on the purpose of your trip, choose and rent a comfortable apartment in the central part of the city, where entertainment and shopping complexes, cafes and restaurants are located, or on the outskirts, admiring the beauty of nature and inhaling the aroma of the sea on a secluded beach.
The cost of apartments is accordingly determined by these factors: region of the country, location within the resort, proximity to the sea coast. Renting apartments on the mainland is traditionally cheaper than on the Greek islands.

Summer continues in Greece! You can enjoy a beach holiday here for at least another month - until the end of September. And the choice of housing in the fall in Greece is much greater. If only I knew from whom it is better to rent: turn to private owners or stay in a hotel out of habit... Everything is more complicated than it seems!
Independent trip to Greece: accommodation must be booked in advance, otherwise a visa will not be given
You have refused the services of the agency and are planning and arranging a tourist trip to Greece yourself. Then keep in mind: you won’t be able to look for housing upon arrival! Reserving a place of residence is one of the requirements of the Greek Consulate in Ukraine when applying for a visa. “Especially if a person is traveling for the first or second time. Accommodation may not be booked only if the traveler already has a Schengen visa from another country or a long-term Greek visa,” explains Anna Shumskaya, head of the EUEASY company.

In fact it is! Oddly enough, the Kiev Greek Consulate is skeptical about the world-famous booking.com. The logic, however, is ironclad: a person pays only for the intermediary services of the site, and not the rent itself. Therefore, you will have to book through booking.com with a 50/50 chance of being lucky or unlucky. To avoid any doubts, rent housing through sites that offer direct payment. Forums, groups on social networks, as well as portals of Greek tour operators can help you. The most famous: airbnb.com and hotelscombined.gr.
Photo: Shutterstock It would seem that all the documents for the visa have been collected. One catch: you have agreed on housing with a private owner: you want to rent not a room, but an apartment. But will a private owner be able to provide a document confirming your residence within a certain period of time? Moreover, the document that will be accepted at the consulate...
This is a very complex issue that deserves special attention. If you book through booking.com, for example, you will need to contact the hotel and ask for documented proof of your reservation. With the site airbnb.com everything is much simpler - there is a function that allows you to immediately pay for housing and receive confirmation of payment. If you rent from a private owner, he may send you an invitation: they say that he, as a friend, invites you to stay with him for free. Thus, the landlord receives the client, and he receives housing. But in practice, the consulate in Ukraine looks at such invitations with skepticism: it is obvious that they are fictitious. Therefore, along with the invitation, the Greek side requires a certificate of income, a passport and a tax return. It is clear that apartment owners rarely agree to such conditions
Photo: Shutterstock Now about how to pay: remotely - by credit card - or on the spot - in cash. Most often, you need to transfer money in advance. Only hotels allow you to pay for your stay at the time of check-in, and sometimes during check-out. According to Anna Shumskaya, private owners usually demand in advance, if not the entire amount, then most of it. For example, if you rent a house for two weeks, you must pay for the first one in advance, arrive, check in, and immediately pay for the second.
The most budget accommodation option in Greece for a couple of days
In case of a non-standard trip, when you are going on vacation with children or plan to visit many cities and islands in a short time, do not take risks and contact a tour operator. You will be offered different accommodation options, and it will be more profitable. For example, only charter flights fly to Crete and Rhodes, so purchasing tickets on your own will cost more than at an agency.
Best booking sites: airbnb.com, booking.com, tripadvisor.com. These portals occupy different niches, but all are recognized as the best - each in their own way. Airbnb.com contains private offers for rental housing (average cost - 20–50 euros per day per room or apartment). Booking.com has offers in different price categories: both expensive hotels and cheap hostels. But! The site is large, and you need to carefully check the accuracy of the information. And tripadvisor.com is something like an improved version of booking.com. The main emphasis here is on real customer reviews. However, tripadvisor.com prices are higher than other sites.
Long-term housing in Greece
When it comes to long-term accommodation, it is clear that the hotel option is out of the question due to the high cost. There are almost no hostels in Greece. There are two solutions left. First, you book an apartment through airbnb.com, agree on a long-term lease, and the owner removes his ad from the site. But this option is also not cheap: you will have to pay about 500 euros per month. Secondly, you rent inexpensive housing for a long period (from several months to a year) on the website studenthouse.gr, spitogatos.gr or xe.gr.
Anna Shumskaya, head of EUEASY:
It should be noted that without knowledge of the specifics of Greek rentals, it is better not to resort to the services of these sites. Portals often offer apartments without furniture (even kitchen furniture), appliances, and dishes. Therefore, at the stage of selecting options, you need to be very careful and not fall for the low price. In addition, rentals on these sites are offered for a year or longer. If you need an apartment for three to four months, you need to discuss the conditions with the owner in advance: most likely, your price will increase slightly. And don’t forget that you need to pay for the first and last months of your stay immediately
Briefly about prices. If you live in a hotel, prepare to pay monthly from 1000 euros, if you rent an apartment through airbnb.com - about 450–500 euros, and if through spitogatos.gr - from 200 to 300 euros per month (if renting for a long time: website specializes in such options).
Of course, you need to start searching in advance, especially in the summer. The best hotel rooms in Greece for August are booked in March-April. It’s easier with private travelers - you need to book a month before arrival. Owners rarely agree to “hold” an apartment longer.
Photo: Shutterstock I booked, arrived, but didn’t like the accommodation...
To avoid this situation, do not book unfamiliar properties. Ideally make a reservation for a week. Come, take a look around. Everything suits me? Then you extend the lease. Disappointed? So, the search is on again, only this time in place.
But no matter how long you book your accommodation, always carefully read the refund conditions. Do you lose very little or will you later “scrape out” at least a penny from the amount paid? Let’s say there’s a problem: we arrive, and the housing is not at all what it is in the picture. It is better to endure and ask the owner for improvements than to try to return the prepayment. Especially if you arrive in the summer: during the season you won’t find acceptable options during the day with fire.
Independent search/booking of accommodation in Greece: common mistakes of tourists
Do you think being on your own is cheaper and you’ll save on a trip to Greece? Unfortunately, it is not. Package offers from travel companies are much more profitable! Make an exception at least for the first trip - don’t rely on yourself. A tourist risks getting into trouble due to basic ignorance of all the nuances when processing documents and visas. And remember firmly: cheapness does not always guarantee quality. Don't believe everything you see and read on rental websites, double check the information!

Beach or active holidays in Greece are the desired goal of tourists from all over the world. This Mediterranean country is hospitable to all people who wish to visit it. Organizing a holiday in Greece is equally wonderful for everyone - lovers of relaxation on impeccable beaches, fans of active entertainment, extreme sports or vibrant nightlife.
There are a huge number of hotels and inns in Greece, but experienced tourists are convinced that this is not the best accommodation option.
For all its modernity, the hotel remains a public place with strict rules of stay, daily routine, forced proximity to strangers and not always pleasant people.
But all these shortcomings are not a reason to refuse an exciting trip to Greece. At any time of the year in Greece, you can rent a villa, apartment or cottage and enjoy your holiday only in the company of loved ones.
On the website, you can choose the appropriate option, taking into account many parameters and at competitive prices.
Renting villas in Greece
The selection of spacious and comfortable Greek villas is best done by a large and active group of guests, which includes more than 10 people. The site offers rental villas with different sizes and layouts, modern finishes and attractive interiors. Most of the villas are located near the sea with beaches. There are also swimming pools in the landscaped areas of many mansions. The large living area and local area offer guests a lot of opportunities for shared leisure time.
Renting apartments in Greece
Renting an apartment in Greece is a low-cost accommodation option suitable for one or two people. The selection of apartments is often carried out by people arriving in Greece on a work visit or by married couples. Depending on your plans in Greece, you can rent an apartment in a certain region and city. For people who want to relax in silence and enjoy the beauty of nature, it is better to book an apartment on the outskirts of the city. Fans of shopping, local restaurants and entertainment venues should book an apartment in the center of the village. Renting apartments on the mainland under comparable conditions will cost less than renting living space on the islands.
Houses for rent in Greece
Renting a house in Greece is the optimal combination of comfort and competitive price. Renting a cottage is recommended for people who are used to traveling with their whole family or as part of a large group. The cottage can accommodate an impressive number of guests, so you can agree on a shared rental even with strangers. There is more space here than in a standard hotel room, and the prices are noticeably lower. The cottages are landscaped and have everything necessary for a comfortable stay.
Independent holiday in Greece
An independent holiday in Greece is much more interesting and profitable than an official tour, which requires compliance with a huge number of rules. The overpayment is compensated by the provision of a number of additional services, but you can prepare well for the trip without a travel agency. Everything you need for active independent travel is available on the Elinhom website. Here you can not only book accommodation from dozens of options, but also remotely submit a visa application, order tickets, airport transfers or organize a party. It is also possible to rent a yacht, car, plane or helicopter, and remotely sign up for excursions. For clients who find it difficult to select services, competent service consultants will help.
