🏨 Where to Stay
- Cavo Tagoo Mykonos ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — the island's icon, carved into the cliffs just above Mykonos Town. Its infinity pool has become a global landmark in its own right, reflected in a thousand sunset photos, with cave suites, golden villas and a rooftop that defines the modern Aegean dream.
- Bill & Coo Mykonos ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — a true Mykonos original: intimate, design-led and laidback, with a sea-facing infinity pool overlooking the town, three acclaimed restaurants and the island's only Valmont spa. A Leading Hotels of the World member ten minutes from the centre.
- Santa Marina, a Luxury Collection Resort ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — the island's only true private sandy beach, on its own peninsula at Ornos Bay. A traditional Mykonian village built into the hillside, complete with the world's first Buddha-Bar Beach and 12 pool villas for total privacy.
- Semeli Hotel ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — attainable pick — a stylish boutique tucked in a quiet corner at the edge of Mykonos Town, with a pool, spa and Cycladic-minimalist rooms — close enough to walk into town in ten minutes, far enough to sleep past the nightclubs, and considerably easier on the wallet than the island's headline hotels.
- Ftelia Bay Boutique Hotel ⭐⭐⭐⭐ — hidden gem — a family-run boutique on the quiet north coast overlooking Ftelia Bay, known for windsurfing rather than nightlife, with a pool and a genuinely warm welcome — a completely different, far calmer side of the island.

🎟️ Experiences
- Little Venice — the waterfront district of colourful Venetian-era houses with balconies hanging directly over the sea, lined with bars and tavernas. The classic spot for a sunset drink, right beside the windmills.
- Windmills of Kato Mili — the row of whitewashed 16th-century windmills on the hill above town, Mykonos' single most photographed landmark, with sweeping views over Little Venice and the harbour. Best at golden hour.
