Luxury villas on Mykonos

Since it was “discovered” in the 1960s, Mykonos has become one of Greece’s most famous and cosmopolitan islands, and one of the hippest destinations in Europe. The island is easily explorable in a week, and offers vibrant beach life, a great many options for water sports, wonderful views, a fabulous variety of great restaurants, and a legendary party scene. With its many bays and coves, it is also a great destination for those who enjoy spending time messing about on boats, and we warmly recommend you rent one for a day or two to discover Mykonos's gorgeous coastline.
