Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set above the quiet sands of Elia Beach, with water sports below and a regular shuttle into Mykonos Town.
The rooms
Interiors pair weathered wood with sea views, while select suites add private infinity plunge pools or outdoor hot tubs.
The saltwater pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The curved saltwater infinity pool traces the hillside, lined with cushioned sunbeds looking out across the Aegean Sea.
The thalassotherapy spa
An indoor heated seawater pool anchors the spa circuit, where treatment rooms offer body scrubs and Augustinus Bader therapies.
Lagoon Swim-Up Bar
Tucked under a thatched roof at the pool's edge, bartenders serve fresh juices and cocktails directly into the water.
At the table
Candlelit tables line the stone terrace for evening Mediterranean dinners and morning breakfasts overlooking the illuminated pool.
How it began
Conceived by a Greek set designer, the family-owned retreat was built to recreate the sculpted stone alleys of traditional Mykonos.
