A slice of heaven in Crete – The Blue Palace Luxury Resort #Team Coco
After recently returning from the BEAUTIFUL Greek island of Mykonos with #TeamCoco (which FYI will feature in the next print issue of houseofCoco.net so make sure you download), it got me reminiscing about last years stay at The Blue Palace Resort and Spa in Crete. I have come to the conclusion that the Greek islands from Santorini, Rhodes, Mykonos are by far my favourite little European gems of all my travels, and the best holiday destinations (in my opinion) if you are looking for a piece of paradise without the repercussion of a long haul flight!

Sunsets in Santorini: Exploring,Wedding,places to visit.
Finishing off my summer 2015 with a week in Santorini was just the icing on the cake! I have had this down on my bucket list for a long time so when my oldest friend asked me to be her bridesmaid at her Santorini wedding I was more than up for the job! When you think of this island you imagine white washed buildings with blue rooftops and yes, it is as picturesque as the postcards would have you believe, but those pictures are mostly of the village Oia (pronounced ee-a)! There’s so much more to this little Greek gem than meets the eye. Each village has a different character and…
