4 nights

We came to Milos on a recommendation. A few friends had been and said the same three things: beaches, food, repeat. No lengthy pitch. No caveats. Just “go.”

They were right. Milos is one of the best Greek islands we’ve visited – and we’ve visited a few. It delivers everything the popular islands promise, without the crowds that make those islands exhausting. For couples with limited annual leave, that balance matters.

Here’s exactly how we did 4 nights, what it cost, and what we’d do differently.

Some islands are beautiful. Paros is beautiful and alive. The alleyways are lined with flowers. The fishing boats are white.
