The Haute Retreats difference
What a stay with Haute Retreats includes
Mykonos has a great many villas to rent. What we add is the planning before you arrive and the people on the island while you are there.
The Haute Standard
A 21-day pre-arrival protocol on every booking: preferences and dietary needs captured, the house team briefed, provisioning set, transfers timed to your flights, and a written run-of-stay before you leave home.
Every hour of housekeeping in writing
Staff and hours differ from villa to villa, and we set them out before you pay. At Anavio, for example, housekeeping runs four hours a day, with linen changed twice a week.
A welcome in person
Every guest is greeted in person on arrival with a welcome amenity chosen for the house, and a member of the local team is on hand throughout the stay.
A concierge for the whole island
Private chefs, boats to Delos, tables at the beach clubs of Psarou and Paraga and at the restaurants of Little Venice, drivers and transfers, arranged by your 24/7 concierge.
Destination guide
Mykonos villa rentals: the complete guide
A villa is the way to have Mykonos on your own terms. The island is small, and the airport is 10 to 15 minutes from Mykonos Town, so from almost any house you can lunch at a beach club on the south coast, watch the sunset from Agios Ioannis, with Delos across the water, and be at dinner in Little Venice the same evening, and come home to a pool of your own.
Where the best villas are
The most sought-after houses are on the south coast. Above Psarou and Platis Gialos, the hill of Agios Lazaros is sheltered from the summer wind and a few minutes from the beach clubs; Ornos, a calm and shallow bay, is the island’s family base, and Agios Ioannis, around the headland, faces Delos and the sunset. The hills of Agia Sophia and Tourlos look down on Mykonos Town and the port. To the east, Elia and Kalo Livadi have the long beaches and the largest estates, 20 to 30 minutes from town, and the north, from Houlakia and Fanari to Ftelia, is the quiet side of the island, with wide views and larger plots.
Villas for families and large groups
Most of our Mykonos villas have five to nine bedrooms. For a larger group, Mykonos Estate sleeps 40 in 20 bedrooms, Blue Sky sleeps 24 in 12, Villa Aegeas 22 in 11 and Anavio 20 in 10. For families with young children, Ornos is the easy choice: Villa Aquamarine has a shallow plunge pool for children beside its infinity pool, and Villa Aegeas, above the bay, welcomes children.
Getting to Mykonos
Athens is served nonstop from several US cities through the summer. From Athens, Mykonos is a 40 to 50 minute flight, or two and a half to four hours by high-speed ferry from Piraeus or Rafina; several European hubs also fly direct to the island in season. Your concierge times the transfer to your flight, and the villa is stocked before you arrive.
Staff, chefs and minimum stays
Daily housekeeping is part of most Mykonos villa rentals, and many houses add a chef. Villa Zeus and Villa Breeze Mykonos are fully staffed: Villa Zeus with a chef, a butler and breakfast every morning, Villa Breeze Mykonos with a chef for every meal, groceries extra, and a butler twelve hours a day. At Villa Aegeas breakfast and one meal a day are served at the villa, and at Ekavi a chef cooks breakfast and one meal a day. Minimum stays vary by home: Vogue asks for five nights, Mykonos Estate and Anavio for three. We confirm the minimum for your dates in writing.
