Specialist operator Greek Islands Club (GIC) this week launches its 2010 brochure, packed full of over 200 secluded villas throughout the Greek islands of Corfu, Paxos, Antipaxos, Lefkas, Meganissi, Ithaca, Cephalonia, Alonissos, Skopelos, Skiathos, Crete and Santorini.

The new brochure offers a tantalising selection of carefully selected villas, cottages and town houses – most with their own pool - for those looking for a peaceful escape away from the crowds. Nine new properties have been added this year, all of which have been carefully chosen for their character and, above all, location.

David Watrous, Managing Director of GIC, says: “All of our properties offer privacy and comfort in spectacular surroundings, but each has something unique that makes it that extra bit special – whether it be an intimate cottage ideal for couples, a child-friendly villa with pool or a village home where you can truly immerse yourself in the local community.”
