Mykonos has become the ultimate Greek island destination. It is an intoxicating mix of natural beauty, traditional charm and exclusive sophistication whilst, for those who wish to seek it out, there is well-earned party reputation. No other island attracts as many supermodels, rock stars, and not-so-incognito celebrities; in peak season the mega-yachts arrive in force.

If all this sounds rather intimidating, then do not despair – there is plenty for everyone here and within the picture-postcard pedestrian alleyways sit still plenty of excellent and good value shops and traditional restaurants where you can dine on vine-clad terraces and watch the world go by. Our view is that the island is best enjoyed by staying at one of the quiet beaches that are easily found a few miles out of Chora.
Each [tp_link hotel_id=”hotelId=11378″ text_link=”Greco Philia Hotel” check_in=1 check_out=12 type=2 subid=””] accommodation is unique. We climbed spiral stone steps to our circular, domed and air-conditioned bedroom with its traditional stone walls. A small seating area lead out to a balcony shaded with a palm frond thatch and stunning views over Elias bay.
The service here matched the impeccable quality of the hotel and was always at hand and ever-friendly. Our Editor celebrated a birthday during the stay, and the busy chef even made time to make a glorious homemade birthday cake.
The [tp_link hotel_id=”hotelId=11378″ text_link=”Greco Philia Hotel” check_in=1 check_out=12 type=2 subid=””] is a really a very special place. We were truly sad to leave this wonderful spot and hope to return very soon.
