Luxury Travel to
Mykonos made for you
Start PlanningExperience the timeless glamour of Mykonos
Mykonos might be one of the smallest islands in the Cyclades complex but it makes up for it in character. Its reputation as a glamorous party destination has stuck since the 1950s, and while it’s true people here know how to have a good time, the island itself is also incredibly beautiful, its beaches and secluded corners offering refuge to those who seek a Mykonos luxury vacation.
With its cubic white houses laced with colourful bougainvillea, red domes and church bell towers, Mykonos is a picture-perfect Greek haven. The capital Hóra is a hive of activity, its cafes and restaurants full of people soaking up the sunshine. Luxury travel to Mykonos wouldn’t be complete without a visit to one of the island’s famous beach clubs and glamorous seafront bars. Wander through its cobbled streets and down to the waterfront where fishing boats bob up and down in the harbour. The shoreline leads to an area known as Little Venice thanks to its arcaded Venetian houses, and beyond this lay the island’s famous windmills.
There is plenty to keep you occupied in Mykonos, and one of the greatest joys of any trip here is simply exploring its nooks and crannies. For those who want to venture a little further, charter a private yacht to the island of Delos, for a luxury experience that will enchant both children and adults alike. The mythical birthplace of twins, Apollo and Artemis, the UNESCO World Heritage site is one of the most important archaeological sites in Greece.

Athens
Often referred to as the cradle of Western civilization, it’s a city bursting at the seams with culture, intrigue and beauty.
Crete
Crete was home to Europe’s earliest civilisation, the Minoans, and the legendary birthplace of Zeus. That’s quite a claim to fame but not content to just be historically interesting, the island also has a wealth of natural beauty and some of the country’s best beaches.
Folegandros
Positioned in the southern reaches of the Cyclades and surrounded by the glistening blues of the Aegean Sea, Folegandros is a beautiful and largely undiscovered island, currently emerging as a rewarding and laid-back haven.
Milos
The southwestern-most of the Cyclades, it encapsulates the beautiful beaches, rustic white-washed houses, cyan waters, great food and rich history of its neighbours without the crowds of Santorini or Mykonos.
Paros
Paros is an idyllic Greek island, which decorates the already beautifully mesmerising Aegean seas, as part of a group of islands known as the Cyclades.
Peloponnese
The southern peninsular of Peloponnese, separated from the mainland by the Corinth Canal, encapsulates everything that is wonderful about Greece. It is both rich in culture and naturally beautiful.
Santorini
Sheer cliffs hundreds of metres high shield coves and beaches made up of red, white and black sand, while pretty villages of limewashed cubic houses creep up the sides, nestled into every nook and cranny.
Spetses
Despite this rather diminutive size, it has a rich history dating back millennia and has been a favourite of well-to-do Athenians for over a century, now hosting a handful of wonderful boutique hotels.

When to visit
If you’re heading to Greece for its postcard-perfect beaches, look to travel between June and September. These months bring the sunniest weather and the warmest temperatures, both on land and in the water. July and August are the most popular months to visit, so choosing to travel at either side of this time can mean beaches are less busy.
Avoid travelling during the winter months (from late October to April) as much of the island closes down during the colder weather.
