Cliffside cove sanctuary
Whitewashed structures cascade down a rugged cliffside to a secluded cove, offering a serene sanctuary above the Aegean Sea.
“Hidden on a craggy fortress on the shores of the secluded beach town of Kalafati, its slick white columns hover down to the sea in perfect unison.”

What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and Wallpaper*.
Arriving at Cali Mykonos is a slow reveal - an ancient olive tree, whitewashed walls, and then the Aegean stretching endlessly below.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Tucked along the tranquil southeastern coast at Kalafatis, the property provides quiet cove swimming far from the island's bustling nightlife.
The rooms
Suites and villas feature cool marble, natural woods, and expansive terraces with private heated seawater pools facing the Aegean.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
A 130-metre heated seawater infinity pool snakes along the cliff edge, tracing the curve of the Aegean coastline.
The spa
Subterranean relaxation lounges sit behind red-lit arches, connecting treatment rooms with ice, salt, and steam facilities.
Gym and fitness deck
Workouts span indoor treadmills and a shaded outdoor terrace equipped with free weights and Pilates reformers.
At the table
Terraces overlooking the Aegean serve freshly caught seafood, Greek mezze, and cocktails mixed at the marble bar.
Cali’s aquatic tour-de-force furthers the hotel’s integration into the landscape – its water being equally crystalline as the private port’s below.
How it began
Named for the founder's mother, the family-built retreat welcomes guests with a 750-year-old olive tree transported from southern Greece.
