Why not come holiday on One of the Islands featured In One of these Ten Films……
1. MAMMA MIA
By far the most successful movie in Greece, this modern musical based on ABBA songs is silly and fun. Set against a backdrop of Skopelos, Skiathos & the Pelion Coast. We were fortunate that stars like Pierce Brosnan chose to stay in our Villa Metochi – Skopelos during the filming whilst the Skiathos Princess & Aegean Suites were chosen by other cast members.
This tremendous life affirming classic epitomizes the Greek Spirit – which chose to incarnate in Antony Quinn
An all-time favourite, this light hearted romantic comedy has an intriguing darker side, but all takes second place to the beautiful Greek setting

8. FOR YOUR EYES ONLY

9. NEVER ON SUNDAY
This 1960 classic film shot in Piraeus shocked many Greeks with its portrayal of a happy, even a bit pious prostitute (Melina Mercouri) but has in every sense become a modern Greek classic.
A fascinating movie shot in part near the Greek island of Alonissos, it’s the fictionalized story of a deep – water diver.
