Up on a hilltop and facing west over the sea, sunsets from this villa are some of the best on Mykonos. Watch the sky streak pink and purple as Delos island floats on the horizon and the coastline towns below twinkle to life. During the day, a sea breeze cools the terrace, where a pristine swimming pool invites you to take a dip and loungers are spread across the huge, stone expanse. Open up the wall of glass doors to create a full outdoor lounge, decked out with white sofas and covered by a wooden ceiling. From here, a stone archway leads to the dining area which can be turned alfresco by folding back the glass doors. A dedicated bar in the dining room is perfect for a pre-dinner tipple. The design is pure Greek, with white-wash stone walls and smooth edges, but there are pops of Asian influence too like the gong in the breakfasting kitchen and teak globe in the dining room. You’re up in the quiet hills of northern Mykonos here, but the lively hub of Mykonos Town is just a ten-minute drive away and Agios Stefanos Beach is a six-minute drive.
