Historically, the Hellenic people have placed great value on physical beauty since the times of Ancient Greece, as it was considered to be a blessing from the gods. It's no wonder that names such as Helen of Troy (who was actually from Sparta) are synonymous with beauty, and Classical Mythology is overflowing with not just gorgeous girls but pretty boys as well. This endured even into the Byzantine period where according to their values, The Emperor was a reflection of heavenly authority and since God was perfect, the emperor also had to be physically unblemished. It was also in that time period that both Arabic and Frankish (generic term referring to Western Europe) chronicles often described Byzantine ladies as exotic and seductive beauties.
But make no mistake: the male physique was just as idealized as the female one, if not more so. This notion comes from countless works of arts like paintings and sculptures, especially in the wake of neoclassicism during The Renaissance. During that time period, Greece was under occupation of the Ottoman Empire ever since The Fall of Constantinople, which led to the diaspora of several scholars and intellectuals over Europe and many tales were spread about how Greek maidens were forced into harems for their beauty to denounce Ottoman despotism—sure enough, many famous sultanas were previously slave concubines of Greek origin. Only the Circassian girls topped Greek girls in this regard and eventually replaced them after the Greek War of Independence and Imperial Russia ended the slave trade in Southern European women, making the Ottomans turn to The Caucasus instead.
At the height of Philhellenism by authors like Lord Byron and Alexandre Dumas, female characters were popularly portrayed as tragic and ill-fated love interests for the Western European hero while male characters were as rugged and gallant in a very Balkan fashion, and they almost always wore a mustache.
In some modern works, Greeks fall into Foreign Fanservice territory, usually portrayed as idealized beauties with olive skin and dark hair, though this is not always the case as their looks can vary due to the Mediterranean being a melting pot of multiple different people and cultures. Similar to their Slavic counterparts, the appeal stems from them being caught in the bridge between East and West—being both exotic and yet familiar at the same time.
Sub-Trope of Foreign Fanservice. Compare with English Rose, Sexy Scandinavian, Sensual Slavs, Gentile Jew-Chaser, Circassian Beauty and Latin Lover. Also related to The Burlesque of Venus due to sharing sources. Not to be confused with Gorgeous Geek.

Hercules:
The title character is a Chick Magnet in-universe, to the point his female admirers literally fight themselves over him.
Megara, or "Meg", is not exactly hard to look at, as Hercules, Nessus, Adonis (her ex-boyfriend in the TV series) as well as the man she sold her soul for... for which he was ungrateful, and (briefly) Phil can all attest to.

Ben-Hur (2016) uses this trope in the chariot race. The racers are all shown to be champions representing different Mediterranean countries which are all part of the the Roman Empire. Naturally, the Greek racer is presented as the most beautiful, with cherubs on his chariot and flowers woven into his hair, even though he is presented as no less masculine than the other racers.

Troy: Achilles, played by Brad Pitt, since he is a tall, muscled, blonde Chick Magnet who is introduced in a Bed Full of Women. Not even Trojan Proper Lady Briseis can resist his charm. Helen of Troy also counts as a female example (even appearing naked at the beginning of the movie), but she is Demoted to Extra in comparison to Achilles.

Sophitia's children Patroklos and Pyrrha in Soul Calibur V also inherited their mother's good looks. The former in particular has a mop of cherubic blond hair, evoking Classical Greek sculptures of beautiful young men.

The Incredible Hercules:
Herc himself is a male example being a shirtless hunk with a chiseled Heroic Build. He also has been depicted as Ambiguously Bi in the mainstream universe at least. In one reality, he and Wolverine are a Battle Couple.
Athena Parthenos often takes an Hot Librarian form when disguised as a mortal. She is considered very attractive in-universe, but alas she is a Celibate Heroine.

Fate/stay night: Rider is a Statuesque Stunner with purple hair and Dressed Like a Dominatrix who turns out to be the mythological gorgon Medusa. The reason why she doesn't look monstrous is that her current look is the same one before she was cursed by Athena, meaning this is the same one that enchanted Poseidon.

Soul Series:
Sophitia Alexandra might be the most shining example in gaming. Even though shed lived in the 16th-Century during a time Greece was under the Ottoman Empire, Sophitia dresses like an ancient Greek warrior in a skimpy fashion and is more or less the poster girl for the series.
Her sister Cassandra also qualifies though she is more of a Hot-Blooded Tomboy example that downplays the Greek motif.
Sophitia's children Patroklos and Pyrrha in Soul Calibur V also inherited their mother's good looks. The former in particular has a mop of cherubic blond hair, evoking Classical Greek sculptures of beautiful young men.
Soulcalibur VI turns Sophitia's husband Rothion◊ into this trope. After portrayed as average and plain-looking, he gets Progressively Prettier in this game.

Agents of Atlas has Venus who was believed to be the actual Goddess of Love, but was retconned to be a siren who is not only extremely beautiful but could supernaturally charm other people. Meanwhile, the true deity Aphrodite Ourania always portrays herself as a voluptuous redhead and a Walking Swimsuit Scene.

Smite:
The demigod Achilles is a Long-Haired Pretty Boy who gets to show off his ripped body whenever he forgoes his armor. Even his victory animation pokes fun at his status as Mr. Fanservice!
Aphrodite, unsurprisingly due to being the Goddess of Beauty and very aware of it.

Haydee in The Count of Monte Cristo is probably the Trope Codifier in literature. The daughter of Albanian nobleman Ali Pasha and his Greek concubine Kyra Vassiliki, she was sold to slavery after her parents' deaths until her freedom was bought by Edmond Dantès and becomes his Morality Pet. The page quote above taken from the narration details how exotic and nubile the fair Greek lady is. By the end of the book, she becomes Edmond's lover.

The Camp Half-Blood Series Percy Jackson does not dwell on his own looks in his own pov, but later on Hazel, a Roman demigod mistakes him for a god when she first lays eyes on him due to his good looks. Another Roman demigod, Reyna pretty much propositions him to become a Ruling Couple with her.
Apollo, the sun god is also described as incredibly good looking by everyone that interacts with him.

Don't Meddle with My Daughter!:
In chapter 9, Athena Haruka is revealed to be the actual Greek goddess in physical form. She's depicted as an amazonian blonde who's so hot that her enemies, bystanders, and even her own daughter, all wanna bang her. Which is why she's referred to as "the MILF of Steel".
Her sister Artemis also qualifies due to having a similar figure, though not as curvaceous as Athena's. Instead, she invokes the look of a librarian when posing as St. Sumire's guidance counselor.
Clara is half-Greek and Japanese since she was fathered by the mortal, BM the Shooter. Though, unlike her mom, she's reserved and dresses modestly... until she dons her superhero costume.

Assassin's Creed:
Lysistrata in Assassin's Creed: Revelations is a wealthy Byzantine noblewoman in league with the Templars, and uses her seductive charisma to entrap Ottoman officials. She is one of Ezio's minor targets during the story mode and playable in the multiplayer mode as "The Thespian" avatar.
Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is set in Ancient Greece, so naturally there will be characters of both genders that fill this trope like Kassandra/Alexios and specially, their love interests who are designed to be appealing.
