Mykonos Grand Hotel & Resort
Mykonos
OVERVIEW
On an island where partying is one of the main pastimes, it can be hard to find a little bit of unspoilt serenity. You won’t find it difficult at the Mykonos Grand Hotel, however. The cool, calm Cycladic architecture radiates a sense of peace and the beach is virtually private – you won’t find the pumping bass and bobbing boats of Psarou Beach here. Instead, you can relax and enjoy the views over neighbouring islands and the sparkling Aegean, with the hotel’s delicious restaurants just a short walk away.
If you’ve always wanted to indulge fantasies of Shirley Valentine then you’ll be able to here – the beach was famously featured in the Oscar-nominated film. It’s blissfully remote, and yet you’re a mere 10 minutes’ drive from the buzzy atmosphere of Mykonos Town.
You won’t need to worry about being entertained during the day, either, as the hotel has plenty of facilities for you to enjoy. Try a relaxing yoga or Pilates class to begin your mornings in the spectacular open-air amphitheatre, book a spa treatment, play squash or tennis, or just flop by the pool.
