Myconian Villa Collection

Character and identity

Perched above Elia Beach on Mykonos's quieter southern coast, this boutique hideaway trades the cacophony of Mykonos Town for sea-view seclusion across just 50 rooms and villas, each with its own plunge pool or alfresco hot tub. The design language is classic Cycladic whitewash given a playful contemporary lift: bright fabrics, wooden handicrafts, plush pink and black loungers. A serene Rejuvenation Spa anchors the property with four heated thalassotherapy pools and Elemis and Augustinus Bader treatments, while an exclusive outpost of Geneva's Artion Gallery rotates exhibitions on site.

Who's it for

Bottom line

The proposition is privacy and stillness above all: a plunge pool, a sea view and a thalassotherapy circuit, with the island's noisier pleasures kept at shuttle's length. Book a villa with the saltwater infinity pool if you can stretch to it, since most of your stay will happen on that terrace. Shoulder season (late May, September) gives you the sunsets without the peak rates.
