Hi, I was in September last year at the Grace Hotel in Santorini. Amazing hotel. Of course I did the hike to the mountain but I could not reach the top of the mountain since I could not find where to climb to the top. One day I stopped by to visit Cavo Tago for their amazing pool ... thanks for another great video that reminded me beautiful days from last year. Greetings from Tel Aviv Israel.
Sounds like you had an amazing trip! Grace Hotel really is an amazing hotel with incredible views! Hope we can soon travel to such beautiful places again! Where would your next destination be?
@@laurandnicolas At the moment I can only dream... We are in Israel in full lockdown due to the corona virus. I sincerely hope that in the coming months all this crisis will be resolved. At least I see your videos and enjoy.
New subscriber from Alabama here. Ty for sharing this with us. The first time I heard about Santorini was in my youth and in an 80s movie called Summer Lovers. With Peter Gallagher and Daryl Hannah in it.😀👍
What was the name of the fine dining restaurant at the end of the video? Looked amazing. We are going to Greece on our honeymoon. Would love to go eat at that restaurant
Hola! great vid!, and you guys have a great chemistry together! We had plans for Greece but then COVID happened, so... we are now waiting... I have one question, what's the name of the "Laura's one of the favorites restaurants ever like in the whole world" that she mentioned (at 22:50)? I think I would take my wife to dinner there when we can travel.
Thanks for watching! Sorry you had to postpone your trip! The restaurant is called Lycabettus! It’s part of the Andronis Luxury Suites and its amazing 😍😍
We just set up a tripod and put it on timelapse! We have a photography ebook in which we explain everything! You can find the link on the description ❤️ thanks for watching 🥰
I like how real they are... This is great, this is not that great, this is pretty, this is not that pretty... this tastes great, this tastes not so great. I like that.
Don't know which the second hotel is in the video (it's been a while since we've seen the video), but the 3 hotels we stayed at were: - Cavo Tagoo Santorini - Grace Hotel, by Auberge Resorts Collection - Andronis Arcadia There should be links to all 3 hotels in the description of the video
Thank you for the vlog and all the tips! Really loved the cavo tagoo. Also where is your sparkly lavender bikini from? P.s. love as that flowery dress 😍
Santorini in general is very touristy in August! But it’s still worth it! The perks of staying in Oia is that you can wake up very early to explore without any people!
Really depends on what you're looking for! We don't mind travelling with a full-size camera with interchangeable lenses (sony A7II, link is in the description), but if you want something very lightweight, the vlogcam we use (Sony ZV-1, link in the description as well) is very nice too for both photography and video.
Love your content ♥️ do you mind sharing what is that very last hidden gem spot you guys went to before flying out? I’ll be in santorini in October and would love to go to that spot as well.
I’ve been following you guys on Instagram for along time and finally now On TH-cam , is it exhausting to do the videos ? I recently started TH-cam I’m still new and I was wondering , thanks for sharing
It's definitely a lot of extra work. Still getting the hang of editing, but we put multiple hours/days of work into one video. It's sometimes frustrating because posting on Instagram is much less time-consuming and much more people get to see our content, but we really love TH-cam and it's definitely something we will continue doing, even if only a handful of people watch our videos🥰
@@laurandnicolas yes I think the important is to keep going and not give up, I congratulate both of you , you are amazing and I know that it takes lots of time and effort. Especially that in TH-cam you need to get 4000 hours to be monetized that’s a bummer but I believe one day you will make it
They all have their strengths and weaknesses. There wasn't really one standout. We wrote a blogpost about the things we liked and didn't like at each property, so you might want to check that out! I'll link it in the description below!
Nice video the editing is good certainly beautiful hotels and good food. The second time I watched thispretended that I was a hotel owner, and from that perspective it didn’t look like I would want people with your attitude to review a hotel that I own … certainly not if I’m giving you a few days free food and lodging. I say this because several times in the video you talk about just having lazy days, not wanting to blog, and not feeling like making any effort even though your deal with the hotels are to take a certain amount of pictures, but why just deliver the minimum that they require? Is this whole thing about getting free lodging or is it about giving good quality reviews? If you guys were very serious about this why aren’t you just writing for Condé Nast Traveler magazine, or some other big travel magazine that will send you to these hotels all expenses paid? It’s very confusing what your objective is. By the way I’ve been to all of these places and have taken photographs so we’re just as amazing even though I’m not a professional photographer. With such breathtaking scenery and a decent camera anyone can take amazing photos with very little effort. Far too often we give lots of credit to the photographer and the technology be a camera but in reality it is the architects painters and the natural scenery that is the real star in the photo. If you think I’m just being a whiny person, I have traveled on low budgets and high budgets and have worked all over the world in motion picture production,, after seeing your video it seems like you guys are just sort of doing a secret little con game on the hotels, delivering the absolute minimum and receiving the absolute maximum you can get out of these. What do you do for an encore? Ouch
A TH-cam review wasn’t even part of the deal with these hotels. We generated over 10 million video views on Instagram for these hotels and tens if not hundreds of bookings. I’m pretty sure the hotels in question didn’t mind :-). Also, we don’t write for Condé Nast Traveler magazine because our English is pretty average and we were both blessed with the writing ability of a 5 year old. 😂
How Overlucky,Are you,Christ, and couple,May I say one thing,I wished if I could present there,I am, You are lucky, woman and men, To each other.............. Call me there 😂☺️☺️,But you won't, You will callonly.......euroare
Definitely that picture in the church after the 20 minutes hike was SO WORTHY, is gorgeous
Glad you think so! Looking back, it definitely was worth it and we're so happy we did it!
Amazing video! Thank you so much for the information.
Glad you liked it!

It’s obvious that u were happier at Cavo Tagoo :)
Maybe 🥰
Where did you rent the transparent (clear) kayak that you show at the beginning of the video?
That was on La Digue island in the Seychelles! Beautiful place 😍
Nice video 😍 Laura where is your dress from minute 14:39? Thank you so much!

How do you take out your couple pics like the one taken at 11:38.
We just set up a tripod and put it on timelapse! We have a photography ebook in which we explain everything! You can find the link on the description ❤️ thanks for watching 🥰
You’re Greek follower 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️
Yay! Welcome!
What was the second hotel? I missed it 😢
It's called Grace Hotel - Auberge Resorts Collection
I like how real they are... This is great, this is not that great, this is pretty, this is not that pretty... this tastes great, this tastes not so great. I like that.
beautiful couple
❤️❤️
Very beautiful vid!! You had for sure an great time there! The footage is amazing!
Thanks so much! So great to hear that! We had an amazing time indeed and can't wait to go back next year!
@@laurandnicolas you have to!!
Topvideo’s.. jullie staan zéker in mijn top 3 travelvloggers! Ik kijk al uit naar jullie avonturen met Herbie :D xxx love from Antwerp
Oooh wat leuk om te horen! Kunnen niet wachten om met Herbie op stap te gaan! Lots of love back
Yall are so cute💜
Awwww 😚
Wow! Loved the video!
What was that last 'favorite' restaurant???
Not sure I am making out that name.
Thanks!
The restaurant at Andronis Luxury Suites in Oia! Can’t remember the name!
Edit: looked it up, it’s called Lycabettus 🥰
Ola! What is the town called that you stopped by the last morning for photographs? Thanks :)
What is the name of hotel #2?
Don't know which the second hotel is in the video (it's been a while since we've seen the video), but the 3 hotels we stayed at were:
- Cavo Tagoo Santorini
- Grace Hotel, by Auberge Resorts Collection
- Andronis Arcadia
There should be links to all 3 hotels in the description of the video
Hi, love the video
I think it was called Messaria! 🥰❤️
Thank you for the vlog and all the tips! Really loved the cavo tagoo. Also where is your sparkly lavender bikini from?
P.s. love as that flowery dress 😍
Is oia too touristy in august ? Deciding between a few nights in Oia or at Nikki Beach.
Santorini in general is very touristy in August! But it’s still worth it! The perks of staying in Oia is that you can wake up very early to explore without any people!
Trying to decide the same thing. Did you already book?
Please post on how to get to those intagram photo shot locations
What type of camera do you recommend when traveling?
Really depends on what you're looking for! We don't mind travelling with a full-size camera with interchangeable lenses (sony A7II, link is in the description), but if you want something very lightweight, the vlogcam we use (Sony ZV-1, link in the description as well) is very nice too for both photography and video.
Love your content ♥️ do you mind sharing what is that very last hidden gem spot you guys went to before flying out?
I’ll be in santorini in October and would love to go to that spot as well.
I believe it's called Mesaria! Definitely worth walking around for a few hours, it's beautiful!
Wanneer jullie in het zwembad zitten rond 22', lijkt Nicolas super hard op Vincent Banic! :o
Wie? 😅
@@laurandnicolas haha een belgische acteur je moet hem maar eens opzoeken ;) hij speelt onder andere mee in familie :)
Laura where is your cover up dress from on 20:25 😍 so beautiful
It's from Rowie The Label! Thank you
Girl I need all those outfit details!!! Please list of them
You can find most of them on our Instagram!
I think you should stay at Canaves Oia Hotel next time. The most famous hotel with many awards in the island.
Are you guys vegan? That breakfast / lunch looked like it. :) Where do you recommend for a wedding in Santorini? An elopement of just the 2 of us?
😀
I'm going to Greece this summer and your vlogs and my go to inspiration! Is the church, Virgin Mary Theoskepasti Holy Orthodox Church?
That's the one, yes! Enjoy Santorini
@@laurandnicolas Thank you so much!
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for watching
no room tour???
love Greece :-)
It's just one of the most beautiful countries on this planet! Can't wait to return this summer!

Vlogers always say "we went straight to bed because we were soooo tired" . 😏😏 Hmmm who else believes them. 😂😂😂😂😂
some people actually like to just sleep ;-)
@@laurandnicolas i hear you Laura and Nicholas. How was Nilos island?
It was amazing! (If you mean Milos) Some of the best Greek beaches can be found there!
❤️ from india
Good to have you aboard
I would like to the more of the scenery and a lot less of the people talking.
Wich room did you guys stay in at cavo tagoo? 😍
Which was your favorite hotel out of the 3?
They all have their strengths and weaknesses. There wasn't really one standout. We wrote a blogpost about the things we liked and didn't like at each property, so you might want to check that out! I'll link it in the description below!
@@laurandnicolas thank you so much for replying
The photo was worth it but did not put Jeremy's insta or youtube on your video nor comment area...
Nice vlogs though
Glad you like them!
