Holiday hotel owners may be slashing prices in a bid to fill empty beds this year but visitors to popular Greek holiday islands like Mykonos won't find many cheap Greek island holiday deals on offer.
While hotel room prices across Greece are up just 15% on last year, for Mykonos holidays the average price of a double room is now €188 a night - a whopping 66% rise on last year's prices.

Gay tourists are giving Greek Island holidays the thumbs down, according to the latest research into the Greek beach holiday tourism market. Greek island holidays on Lesbos and Mykonos beaches have been popular destinations with the gay tourist market for years, attracting thousands annually.
But latest research reveals a sharp fall in the numbers of gay tourists heading for Greek island beaches despite a 10% rise in in tourism in Greece.

Holidaymakers on the Greek holiday island of Mykonos have been warned to make sure they lock up their apartments and villas following a spate of burglaries. Successive cases of burglaries and break-ins into holiday apartments and villas have been reported across the island of Mykonos in August. Police say more than 15 holiday homes have been raided in just two weeks with two notable burglaries at luxury villas in the popular Ornos resort.
