A nice, intimate hotel with friendly staff, but in a very remote location, and lacking in some obvious areas. I would rate a 7/10.
It’s clear to see why the hotel is 5* as the decor and design is gorgeous. The staff are very helpful and friendly, and the food is beautiful. The panoramic views of the sea and Mykonos coastline is stunning.
However, the hotel is in an extremely remote location with no amenities, not even a small shop, for miles. As the area is so underdeveloped, it’s un-walkable, meaning a costly taxi (€70 return) or a rental car is required to navigate the narrow roads and earthy terrain to get into Chora or nearest village.
If you prefer to stay on-site, be warned it’s very small and there’s only 5 sunloungers at the tiny pool, so prepare to scrap if you don’t have a private pool.
My main disappointment was how expensive the food and drink is. Don’t get me wrong, the food is beautiful, but be prepared to pay 28€ for a salad or 18€ for an omelette (not inc in breakfast offering). In my opinion, the hotel extorts guests because of location, with unnecessary prices. For example, a 750ml water is 8€ and a 330ml Coke Zero is €6 (plus you have to pay the 3€ service on top of that). If you want to take it to your room from the bar, they have to do it for you due to ‘health and safety’ - that’s an extra 20€ for the pleasure too. The minibar and teabags in my room weren’t re-stocked during my stay - probably to make you pay more for room service.
4* at best.
