This charming home is a picture-perfect example of Cycladic style. The villa sits on a hillside looking over the bay, with pretty whitewashed walls and a sugar-cube shape. It’s in a gated complex of twelve properties, which are all nicely spread out – you don’t have to worry about privacy here. The villa is simple in style, with lots of white – the views of the cobalt-coloured sea and swimming pool add inviting blues to the palette. You’ll likely start your days on the lovely terrace, admiring the panoramic view while sipping fresh fruit juice. Then you’ll have to make a tough decision: will you sunbathe first by the pool or the sea? In addition to boasting a gorgeous infinity pool, the villa has direct access to the sea via a little dock. For a larger beach with soft white sand, drive eight minutes to Psarou beach. Maybe you’ll try snorkelling in the calm, clear water? It takes twelve minutes to stroll into Mykonos, where you’ll find plenty of bars and restaurants. Meander along the winding streets and enjoy a spot of shopping, or sample a different meze dish at each tempting taverna. However you spend your time in Mykonos, you’ll be happy to return to this villa each evening. The sunsets from the veranda are spectacular.
