Promoting 2 luxury Greek resorts and 2 boutique hotels in Athens

In 2021, when the world was swinging from one corona wave to another, I took advantage of the breaks in lockdowns and went on several business trips in Greece to explore hotels and resorts in Greece, as part of a collaboration between me and the hotels.

Why Greece?

Greece was open to Israelis almost throughout the whole Corona crisis and welcomed Israeli tourists happily. Israelis love Greece and consider it a favorite destination, every season of the year.
Flights to Greece continued to operate as an orderly throughout the Corona crisis. These are short flights, the stay in Greece is mostly in the open air, so Greece was considered a safe destination.

The Resort:

A five-star resort in Crete, Overlooking turquoise waters with stunning views of the castle on Spinalonga Isle.  Domes of Elounda is a luxury resort that captures the essence of Crete with an enchanting demeanor, finely tuned service and defining architecture.
