According to Trivago, once again, stylish Mykonos Island has topped the list. The top five was completed by Nafplio, Athens, Thessaloniki and Rome (Italy). It should be noted that Greece’s two largest cities — Athens and Thessaloniki — last year were not among the long weekend getaway preferences of the Greeks.

Spetses came up sixth preferred destination on the list followed by Istanbul (Turkey), Parga, Agistri and Pafos (Cyprus).
