Planes

The hotel will fetch you from the island’s airport (€50 per room per way), which can be reached from the UK with EasyJet (www.easyjet.com) or Thomson Airways (flights.thomson.co.uk). In low season (or for the scenic route), do the second part of your journey by boat.

Automobiles

The hotel is happy to arrange car/motorbike rental and has its own private underground parking area. It is located 1.5km north of the new port, 10 minutes from the airport, and just a 15-minute drive from the main town of Chora. See www.ferries.gr for information on car ferries.

Worth Getting Out of Bed For

The Agios Stefanos beach is just by the hotel, so there’s a good chance you’ll get no further than a horizontal position on this chilled-out curve of coastline. It’s worth the short drive south of the hotel to Chora, Mykonos’ main town, where you can see 16th-century windmills, milk-white adobe churches and twist and turn down Little Venice’s alleyways, before taking lunch with a view by the harbour – you might even meet Mykonian mascot Petros the pelican. The Archaeological Museum (+30 (0)228 902 2325) has artefacts dating back to the fifth century BC and the Mykonos Folklore Museum (+30 (0) 228 902 2591) has a cache of painted pots and stories of the island’s piratical past. If overloading on history has made you think Mykonos is something of a relic, think again; this cosmopolitan enclave is one of Greece’s more sophisticated clubbing-mad islands and there are plenty of slick VIP bars where you can down an ouzo and dance along to celeb DJs. The next day if you’re feeling a little delicate, see if you can stomach a gentle sail up and down the coast. The hotel can personalise the excursion to your wishes, right down to the on-board music, and when you return to port a blissed-out barbecue will be waiting for you.
