Greece ‘going for gold’

Property owners in Greece could see their profits soar over the next few months…

According to Lastminute.com, the number of bookings for holidays in Greece has shot up over the last few months.

John Bevan, Managing Director at the firm, commented: “The amount of reservations for April 2008 is 15 per cent higher than it was at the same time last year. This means that there will be greater demand for tourist accommodation across the country, particularly in hotspots such as Kos, Corfu and Rhodes.

"The unusually cold weather has led to incredible demand for late Easter sun holidays."

Holiday-Rentals recently revealed that the number of Greek properties it has on its books went up by almost two-thirds last year.
