Why People Love It

9.6⭐237 reviews
  • Petros (the owner) is a hospitality legend who personally rescues guests from travel disasters
  • Dead silent at night despite being 15 minutes from the party
  • Free private parking—a rarity that saves you €20/day in Mykonos

Quick Take: A spotless, family-run sanctuary that trades a swimming pool for killer sunset views and genuine peace.

Reviewed by @MairaAsad3654452: I couldn't believe I snagged this suite for €160. The private terrace was my favorite spot for morning coffee with that endless Aegean view. It felt like true luxury without the crazy Mykonos price tag.

Guest Who Stayed Here Said

The hype

Immaculately clean suites with a host who treats you like family, but the hill is no joke.

Reality check

You might book for the price, but you'll return for Petros; just don't expect a resort vibe—it's a guesthouse.

  • You are renting a car/ATV and need guaranteed parking
  • You prioritize silence and hygiene over a pool scene
  • You want a local connection rather than a corporate hotel feel

Cleanliness & Maintenance

9.8
  • Housekeeping: Daily, meticulous cleaning. Guests consistently use the word 'immaculate'.

  • Maintenance: Excellent. Paint is fresh, AC units are silent and effective.
  • Linens & towels: Crisp, white, and changed regularly. High quality for the price point.
  • Odors & scents: Neutral and fresh. No musty island dampness.

Before you book

Good to know

  • Breakfast is often provided complimentary even if not explicitly in your rate—ask nicely.
  • Reception is not 24/7; let them know your arrival time in advance.
  • The tap water is not potable (standard for Mykonos); buy big bottles at the market.

What to pack

  • Comfortable walking shoes (heels are suicide on the hill)
  • International driving permit (for the ATV you'll definitely want)

Room Genie

Best picks

  • Seaview Suite (top floor for the best sunset unobstructed views)
  • Deluxe Double Room with Sea View (balances price and view perfectly)

Rooms to avoid

  • Standard Double No View (faces the inner courtyard/wall; feels darker and smaller)

Room Request Genie – copy & paste

“Hi Petros, we are so excited to stay. If possible, we'd love one of the upper-floor units with a sea view rather than the courtyard rooms. We will have a rental car and appreciate the parking!”

FAQ & Hidden tips

Everything you actually want to know before you book.

Is there a pool?

No. There is a sun terrace with loungers and a view, but no water to swim in.

How far is the walk to town?

10-15 minutes downhill to the Old Port/Town. The walk back up is steep and takes longer.

Is parking actually free?

Yes, they have a private lot on-site, which is gold dust in this area.

Can I get a taxi to the hotel?

Yes, but taxis are scarce in Mykonos. Ask Petros to arrange a transfer or rent a vehicle.

Is breakfast included?

Technically depends on the rate, but almost every guest reports receiving a fresh, made-to-order breakfast daily.

Is it quiet at night?

Yes. Unlike hotels in Chora, you won't hear the club music here.

Insider Tips

  • ✨

    Ask Petros for his specific restaurant recommendations; he steers guests away from tourist traps.

  • ✨

    Use the 'peripheral road' to bypass Mykonos Town traffic when heading to beaches like Psarou.

  • ✨

    The sunset view from the common terrace is as good as any expensive bar in Little Venice.

5 things to know before you go
