Mykonos Grand Hotel and Resort

Dazzling whitewashed, cube-shaped buildings and cobbled paths set against the backdrop of a deep blue sea and sky, Mykonos Grand Hotel and Resort has a superb beachfront location barely three miles from Mykonos town. Opposite is the sacred island of Delos, said to be one of the sunniest areas in the world – and, according to Greek mythology, the birthplace of Apollo. All around is the island’s natural beauty: picturesque stretches of sand, crystalline seas, azure-blue skies and an earthen-colored landscape bathed in the unique Aegean light.

Scattered across an extensive five acres to provide space and privacy, the 96 generously-sized rooms and suites are decorated in bright white with splashes of blue some with private pools. Furniture and decorative lighting is elegant and streamlined, recalling mid-twentieth century styling.
