If you're planning a luxury holiday to Greece, you'll want to find the perfect accommodation; after all, this can make all the difference to how much you enjoy your break. So, just which hotels rank highly - and where can you find them?

First, you need to think about whether there are any specific destinations in Greece that appeal to you. For example, if you're particularly fascinated by the nation's famous history, you might want to head to the mainland or the island of Peloponnese, which has some excellent archaeological sites.

If it is great beaches and luxury accommodation you want, however, consider isles such as Santorini and Mykonos, which are known for their high-class Greek hotels.

Mainland

Should you be looking for the ideal place for a family holiday and think you want to stay on the mainland, consider booking accommodation at Halkidiki, a peninsula in the north of the country. The Sani Beach Club is a fabulous choice, boasting a wealth of excellent facilities designed with families in mind.

Indeed, this charming destination resembles a traditional village, and its individual bungalows will give you and your children all the space and comfort you need. What's more, there is a lot to entertain younger travellers - something mums and dads will no doubt be pleased to hear.

Alongside children's clubs for youngsters aged between four months and 16 years - which are divided into three groups based on age - there are creche facilities, a playground and water sports options.

Islands

Always popular with holidaymakers seeking sun and relaxation, the Greek Islands are wonderful spots for a getaway, whether you're planning a trip for the whole family or a romantic break for two. If you're searching for the ultimate in luxury, consider staying at the Elysium Resort & Spa.

This five-star destination, situated on Rhodes, offers the chance to stay in sublime surroundings. Each guest room has views over the Mediterranean Sea, while you can also choose to stay in the Elite Club, which boasts its own check-in and a host of lavish benefits, such as a lounge serving complimentary snacks throughout the day.

Its three restaurants serve Mediterranean and Greek delicacies, while it also boasts its own stretch of beach - perfect for those planning to spend lots of time soaking up the sun. Being just a few minutes from the renowned hot springs of Therme Kallithea, it's also an ideal choice if you're keen to experience this natural wonder.

Located on Kos, the Neptune Hotel is another marvellous choice for luxury breaks for all the family. This 37 acre private estate has a charming location in beautiful countryside, while also looking out over gorgeous golden sands.

Here, you'll be able to choose between an apartment, suite or different types of guestroom, which means most holidaymakers will be able to find an option that appeals to them. This hotel is especially well-suited for those seeking accommodation with lots going on, as it has facilities for everything from archery to tennis.

Indeed, bike hire, a games room and live music are just some of the other facilities you can take advantage of during your stay. What may appeal most to gastronomes, however, is the destination's excellent reputation for fine cuisine. Boasting a total of four restaurants, it allows holidaymakers to combine luxurious accommodation with gourmet dining without having to leave the site.
