If Greek island honeymoon bliss had an address… If Greek island honeymoon bliss had an address… it would be @andronis_hotels, Andronis Minois, Paros. ⁠
⁠
Just a short ferry ride from the famous Santorini, this serene five-star hideaway feels like discovering your own private corner of the Cyclades. Honeymoons expert, Lisa Perkovic, takes us along for a sunrise-to-sunset escape filled with buttery pastries, ocean-kissed breezes and the kind of quiet romance every newlywed dreams about.⁠
⁠
From suites designed like a white-washed Greek village to those incredible private plunge pools (some of the biggest Lisa’s ever seen!), Andronis Minois is all about slow mornings, long lunches and soul-stirring views of the Aegean.⁠
⁠
It’s luxury, but laid back. Romantic, but real. The kind of place that wraps you in warmth from the moment you arrive.⁠
⁠
Perfect for couples dreaming of a Greek honeymoon with beauty, authenticity and plenty of indulgent moments.⁠
⁠
Read the full story now live on Polka Dot Honeymoons. ⁠

[Image description: A serene coastal scene on the island of Paros, Greece. The foreground shows a whitewashed stone wall and a small terrace with two beige outdoor lounge chairs beside a narrow private pool. Beyond the terrace, rugged rocky land stretches out towards the deep blue Aegean Sea, where gentle waves roll against the shore. In the distance, scattered white buildings sit quietly along the coastline, framed by soft, hazy mountains under a cloudless pale blue sky. The late afternoon sun casts warm golden light across the entire landscape, giving the scene a calm, dreamy, and quintessentially Greek island feel.]⁠

Autumn had never looked so bright! With bold pink florals, cocktail-hour style, and a dance floor powered by tambourines, Britt and Michael’s celebration proves that colour is always in season.⁠
