There is no nice place in Greece whatsoever.
Just dry, sunburned land fitted only for the goats and donkeys.

I agree with Vasiliki if you want to stay on the mainland but the following island are not far by boat and are very beautiful.
1. Santorini - houses(caves built into the cliffs)
archaeological sites
2. Mykonos -very pretty - popular with the g crowd - party island but only in the summer

3. Skopellos (where Mama Mia was filmed

4. Folegandros
4. Naxos - fantastic beaches

Only 5????
Hmm...

Athens with a visit to the Acropolis and Plaka below.
Crete.
Santorini.
Rhodes.
And then all the monuments at Delphi, Corynth, Mycenae, Tyrinth, Olympia, Cape Sounion, the Meteora and much, much more (yeah, I know, that's not just one place).

i think the best place to go in greece is tsilivi in zakynthos, i lived out there for 6 months and go over every year for a holiday it is beautiful, it is not as busy as lagana but there is plenty to do argassi and lagana are a short ride away where the main night life is if you want more action, the beach is the best as it is very clean. crete is lovely and so is kos but i thought kos was very expensive and there wasnt anywhere for the kids to go.

Athens is very nice to stay in for a couple of days, though. But, take a tour of it. You'd be suprised what this city has to offer!
I was amazed with Leukada and Andros by their beauty of the beaches and hospitality.
And don't listen to everyone else saying it's dry and it sucks...trust me, I go there every year for the whole summer. I love it! If I didn't, I wouldn't be going there every year wasting my time. But I love Greece and you will enjoy it, too.
Also, look up Crete and Mykonos. Santorini is amazing!
Reason: Full of life, sunshine, beaches, parties, clubs,amazing food, cute boys and endless nights of dancing.

hard question.

it depends on how long you're staying.

if it's less than 5 days you can stay in athens and travel around. there's so so much to see. plus you can combine culture, with the beaches on southern attika, nice wuiet places in the winter...

the islands are pretty dead in the summer. but you can try crete, or corfu. maybe syros too. crete is reallly big and corfu and syros are very central, so there are people there in the winter. 19th of april is the orthodox easter, which usually marks the beginning of the summer season, so things won't be bad.

pilio and navplio are very good choices
monemvasia too
and of course thessaloniki, our 2nd biggest city, beautiful even in the winter and by the sea too (wonderful promenade)

it's so hard to chose a place to visit in greece, but on the other side everything is wonderfull!!

so enjoy!!
