Compare the best Mykonos holidays
There are some images that perfectly capture the beauty of Greece: azure seas rolling on to pale sands, white-washed homes set against emerald mountains, thatched windmills, striking blue domes, winding cobbled streets. When you book holidays in Mykonos, you can see it all.
Why go?
Greece doesn't get more glamorous than this, so book holidays to Mykonos and live the high life in the sunshine...
This Greek island has a mystical allure. If Mykonos was a woman, she'd be perfectly coiffured, decked out in subtle but stylish designer gear, and sporting a golden tan with just the right amount of bling catching the sunlight. Yes, Mykonos is chic and cosmopolitan, but it never veers into tackiness. It's the perfect summer destination if you are after endless sun, excellent shopping, cool nightlife, a classy café scene, luxury hotels and just enough beaches.
Flights from the UK reach this jewel of a holiday isle in around 3-4 hours, arriving into Mykonos Airport (JMK). It's a fairly small island, so transfers to the main resorts are short. There is a good range of hotels in the handful of resorts in Mykonos; you can book budget rooms with basic facilities as well as luxury, boutique hotels. Choose from popular resorts such as Agios Stefanos, Agios Ioannis, Ornos, Platis Yialos, Tourlos and Mykonos Town, which is also known as Chora and is the main town on the island.
Spend your days sipping iced coffee at a pavement café, browsing the designer labels in the boutique stores, or soaking up the sun poolside at your hotel. As the sun disappears for the day, find a great restaurant and settle in for an evening of taste sensations. Greek cuisine is renowned for succulent meat dishes, fresh seafood, herb-infused servings of vegetables and sweet pastries to round things off. When the last morsel is cleared off the plate, you can either retire somewhere quiet for a nightcap or join the throngs of party-goers who hit the uber-cool beach clubs to dance until dawn.
