I just came across the hilariously tongue in cheek design website Greece is for Lovers. The products aim to redefine the traditional views of Greece (both good and bad) and have fun with classical imagery and references, ranging from hermaphrodites and Hades to Zeus and "Athens Sucks" coffee cups (and somewhere, someone from the Athens Visitor Bureau is having a heart attack). I love this demigod tote bag which retails for 8 euros. Friends with a sense of humor might like No Sleep Til Hades cups, totes and a pillow, and there's also crocheted iPod covers which are worthy of a Greek granny.

iShop (could have something to do with being Greek ourselves) and
have been there twice in the past few years. Here's a whole new
reason to visit the island: the new Hotel Mystique. This Starwood
Hotel has just 18 rooms (all suites) and is located in Oia,
arguably the most beautiful spot on the island. The rooms are
housed in villas which all have private terraces, overlooking the
sea. They also have infinity pools with cliff
top views. The suites have every mod con, from flat screen televisions, wireless internet
connections and in room massages. Opa!

looking for a funky place to stay in Athens, you have two options:
the
Karim Rashid-designed
Semiramis and the Baby
Grand, which just came across our radar a few days ago. The
