Sensual white and alluring blue. Sunlight and sea. History and stone. This is Mykonos, the captivating, cosmopolitan princess of the Aegean.
Welcome to Greece's most famous cosmopolitan island, a whitewashed paradise in the heart of the Cyclades and set out on a journey to discover a fascinating world where glamour meets simplicity. Uniquely combining superb, sandy shores with a crystal clear sea and stunning town, Mykonos is the supreme and inimitable expression of the Cycladic architecture: the radiant white and the radiant blue.
Let yourself be enchanted by this breathtaking island. Is it its majestic windmills standing guard on the hills in chora (Mykonos town) overlooking the sea? Is it its narrow, winding maze of whitewashed paths? Is it the deep blue Mediterranean water twinkling like infinite precious jewels? Could it be that Apollo, born in the neighboring, sacred island of Delos wanders there, reflecting his eternal beauty? One can only wonder, and enjoy the dream of Mykonos…
This natural beauty of the island is only one reason why Mykonos ranks among the world’s best known and most desirable destinations, attracting visitors from every corner of the planet.
Soon after Jackie and Aristoteles Onassis put it on the map, it became one of the most elegant island holiday destinations in the Mediterranean Sea for the international jet set. Luxurious boutique hotels and exclusive villas with a breathtaking sea view offer a unique scenery to make your stay unforgettable. Gastronomy of high requirements by renown and awarded chefs in elegant and hip restaurants or traditional dishes in Mykonos' timeless fishing villages ensure the satisfaction of all your senses on this magical island.
As alluring the “island of the winds” is during the day as fascinating is it during the night. Either you want to enjoy a drink at the “Little Venice”, a row of old Cycladic houses with balconies overhanging the Aegean, or you want to dance to a frantic party rhythm in a see-and-be-seen bar until sunrise, or you want to stroll around in the curvy paths of the town and go for a late shopping to famous stores and jeweleries next to white picturesque hilltop churches, Mykonos promises adventure and the endless possibility for pleasure for every taste.
All in all, Mykonos which according to mythology was formed from the petrified bodies of giants killed by Hercules, is a captivating island which must be experienced at least once in a lifetime!
