Greek Honeymoon Part IV Hotels
Like Amy Sedaris, as a child Halloween was one of my favorite holidays. Not because of the candy (which was awesome) or because I got to dress up (which was even MORE awesome), but because I was fascinated with getting a peek into strangers homes. I was curious to see what their furniture looked like and if they kept the lights on in the hallway or not (I just think its weird to keep your house dark when youre in it!). Naturally, this curiosity wasnt limited to only homes--Im always excited to see the interiors of hotels, especially when theyre marketed as "luxury." So, I had to figure the rest of you are exactly like me and would feel gipped if I didnt share one last peek into our Greecian honeymoon of our hotel rooms. Here ya go, creeper!!
In Athens, we stayed at the Hotel Grande Bretagne. As soon as we entered the lobby, it smelled sweet and fresh, and made me wish I knew more about how to describe scents. We had a suite which was just the perfect amount of room for two nights before the big show in Santorini.

Living area with a view of the Parliament building
View of the sleeping area from the living room
The bathroom--so much marble!!!
I can totally get down with a TV in the wall of the bathroom.
We stayed in two hotels in Santorini--the Mystique and Vedema Resort. The Mystique was about half the size (26 rooms) and in Oia, the northern part of the island with sweeping sea views. And also my favorite.
The hotel restaurant and pool from the lounge view
The rooms were simple and white, mirroring the feel of the architecture outside
Were basically gonna tell every hotel we ever go to again that its our honeymoon--its the best way to guarantee a complimentary bottle of champagne in your hotel room!
I need this mirror frame in our apartment and I need it now.
The shower was basically 4 feet deep--good luck not drowning.
So even though the rooms were simple and bare, the touches they did have were
really well executed, like this branch lamp.

Beautiful lighting at night in the restaurant.
I didnt get as many pictures of the second resort, but I did love the look of their restaurant:
And here was our backyard--complete with our own pool and jacuzzi. And Kyle soaking in the view.
Thanks for reliving my honeymoon with me. Even if it was a complete invasion of privacy. Ill be back next week with our regularly scheduling programming.
