For your coffee, cake and/or soup, walk all the way to the end of the boulevard where the Aplo Beach Warehouse sounds like a place to shop, but is actually a delicious no fuzz bistro. White chairs, sink-in cushions, the sea on the left and beautiful shades of graying green of the building on the right.

One of the most beautiful villages must be Limeni, an ancient coastal town where you can almost taste the history. Not surprisingly, Limeni is small but the sunset is grand to say the least and when the water laps up against the rocks after a hot day, all is well. There are several restaurants on the little Limeni strip (even an almost out of place hip wine bar, almost) but restaurants Kourmas and Takis are favourites.

The rooms are as you don't often see them in remote Greece: modern and oh so tasteful with vintage trinkets, bathrooms made of Tade lacquer and windows overlooking the lush garden around the hotel, which consists of a village of detached buildings with several rooms, large beds, high-speed internet (nice) and all the modern amenities you could wish for. On a remote mountain, we already said it. Wonderful for a night or two of nothing at all.

If possible, do the sunset in Lemini and then in the evenings go to the village of Areopolis, on 'the other side' of the mountain, sort of. A more than cozy Greek style village. Find a table anywhere in the winding illuminated streets. We didn't find a great restaurant there, but we certainly did find conviviality, good wine and Greek entertainment.

Oh how we loved the city of Nafplio! If you can only get up and down, this small city is the absolute city trip recommendation. Located at the harbour Nafplio and the city is built against a mountain, a combination that produces the most beautiful sunsets. On the other side of the 'mountain' is a lovely beach. Nothing fancy, but a beautiful bay, crystal clear water, lovely beds and a great lunch.

We couldn't be missed at the Sokaki Café, a hip thing with a mishmash of furniture both inside and outside on the terrace, clearly the collecting frenzy of owners with a contemporary taste. The café is located on a cozy corner where you hear the noise of the main market, but are not in the middle of it. Moreover, there is a more than good burger on the menu and the service is fast and correct.

You can sleep fresh and modern in the center of Nafplio at the 999 Luxery Hotel. Bright, large rooms and an excellent breakfast. Don't do anything about it anymore.

Es Aei is a bit of a jazz bar, a bit of a tapas bar and above all a wonderfully relaxing place with good music and ditto food. Tapas, yes, but not traditional Spanish tapas, well no, we are in Greece after all, so the small bites to share are the Greek style. Recommended!

To be honest: I actually only registered twice before for this trip Greece been. shame on me A second 'confession': during this trip I had just become pregnant and suddenly so many things had to be done and I could no longer think for myself at all. So we sounded the alarm at Polyplan, the Dutch Greece specialist. Polyplan is a family business run by Greek Dutch, or Dutch Greeks (?) who not only have an enormous love for 'their' country, but also know it fantastically well. No no no, don't think about it... There you have another club that only wants to push their commercial parties forward. That is really not the case: Polyplan is a small-scale company that listens carefully. And who spend a few months in Greece every year, speak the language and know the locals. This means they know the best restaurants and the most beautiful undiscovered beaches. Tip. Polyplan
