The house
Myconian CollectionSixties-inspired Cycladic resort
The resort channels the island's 1960s artistic heyday, trading austere minimalism for playful retro flair high above the town.
What it’s good at
Notable
Galal Mahmoud set bright 1960s pop-art colors against classic Cycladic whitewashed walls.
Notable
A dedicated circuit of five heated thalassotherapy pools with varying salinity levels.
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Built on the same site as the very first Myconian Collection hotel, Kyma is perched at the top of a hill above Mykonos Town.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Mykonos Town sits a fifteen-minute walk downhill, with historic windmills and Little Venice along the water.
The rooms
Nearly all rooms look out across the Aegean Sea, and select suites have private plunge pools on their terraces.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
A multi-level saltwater infinity pool curves along the main terrace, looking out over the Aegean Sea and whitewashed rooftops.
The spa and gym
Suspended lanterns glow above tiered thalassotherapy baths, and treatment rooms offer warm mud wraps beside a bright fitness room.
Noa Greek Restaurant
Floor-to-ceiling windows look toward the town windmills, and tables sit beneath a sculpted wooden tree by artist Etienne Moyat.
At the table
George's Bar anchors the poolside terrace with whitewashed stone, serving evening cocktails under sail shades as the harbor lights come on.
How it began
Founders George and Eleftheria Daktylides started their island hotel group on this hillside in 1979 with a 25-room guesthouse.
