Myconian Villa Collection
Mykonos, Greece
Vibe
Perched on the hillside above Elia Beach, days unfold between cushioned four-poster poolside daybeds, Aegean views, and quiet, whitewashed retreats.
“Hillside Aegean roost”
Twice-daily housekeeping, attentive concierge care, and spacious private plunge pool terraces overlooking the Aegean.
A subterranean thalassotherapy spa with four heated seawater pools of varying salinity alongside custom body treatments.
Hillside villa living with a dedicated Elia Beach area, central saltwater infinity pool, and open-air dining.
On the slopes above Elia Beach, with panoramic Aegean views and a private beach area below.
“the guestrooms… come with sea views and (in most cases) an outdoor jacuzzi or plunge pool.”
Rooms
Crisp white interiors open onto private sea-view balconies, with most rooms, suites, and multi-bedroom villas featuring outdoor whirlpools or plunge pools.
“The boutique hotel’s traditional whitewashed interiors enjoy a contemporary upgrade in the form of bright fabrics, quirky wooden handicrafts … and ultra-plush pink and black pool loungers.”
Wellness
The subterranean Rejuvenation Spa features four heated seawater thalassotherapy pools of varying salinity, alongside customized body therapies and a dedicated gym.
“Set into the hillside above pretty Elia beach, you’ll want one of the slick villas that can be interconnected creating space for up to six guests.”
Backstory
Founded in 1979 by the Daktylides family, the Myconian Collection grew from a single hotel into a celebrated island hospitality group.
Eat & drink
Feast on Greek buffet specialties at Nouveau, sip sunset drinks by the infinity pool, and dine on modern Mediterranean cuisine at Cabbanes.
The neighborhood
Set above the sands of Elia Beach, the resort offers quiet coastal seclusion with regular shuttles into Mykonos Town.
The app
This is one hotel. The app has every one we rate, in your pocket, for the whole trip.
Our shorthand
What makes a hotel special, how well they pull it off, and what it feels like outside the door.
How well they pull it off
Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.
Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.
They did this well. You’ll notice.
A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
The eight vibes
Architecture and interiors lead. There’s a creative vision at work.
The guest is conspicuously well cared for. Requests met before they’re made.
Rooted in place. Local character runs through the whole stay.
Energy and scene. Where the city goes out, whether or not it’s sleeping here.
A building with history. The story of the place is part of the stay.
Built around feeling better. Rest, sweat, soak, spa.
A hotel the city grew up with. Same rituals, same regulars.
A world of its own. No reason to leave the property.
Scene — what’s outside the door
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
A place apart: the property is the destination.
