Guide to the balancing islands of Mykonos and Milos

There are few places as picturesque and enchanting as the Greek Islands. Both Mykonos + Milos offer unique experiences, each with its own distinct charm. As you embark on your journey, you will find that the theme of balance beautifully weaves through both islands. Mykonos offers a perfect blend of crystal beaches, lively nightlife and searing sunsets, while Milos effortlessly balances untouched landscapes with a sense of tranquillity. So, whether you seek vibrant festivities or peaceful retreats, these islands of Yin + Yang offer an ideal harmony for every traveller.

A guide to Mykonos

Mykonos beckons with its vibrant nightlife, picturesque landscapes, and cosmopolitan atmosphere. Get lost in its labyrinthine streets, explore the stunning beaches, and revel in the electrifying energy of the island.

 

STAY

Acrogiali Beach Hotel, Platos Gialos
Situated right on Platos Gialos Beach, this hotel is simple but roomy and chic, and the seaside balcony rooms are a treat for an afternoon sundowner. Also includes a fabulous buffet breakfast that you can eat right by the ocean before nabbing a sun lounge for the day.

 

Soho Roc House, Paraga Beach
If you’re lucky enough to be a Soho member, the Roc House is pretty special. Finish off your Mykonos adventure by treating yourself to a couple of nights here to do not much else but relax and sip cocktails by the pool. Move at their cliffside open air gym, and to be really wow-ed, get up for sunrise – we can almost guarantee you’ll have the pink-hued delight all to yourself.
