Why People Love It
Ornos Beach location is wind-protected (a rare luxury in Mykonos)
Poolside vibe strikes the perfect balance between 'chill' and 'party' with daily DJ sets
Subterranean 'O Wellness' spa feels like a Bond villain's hideout in the best way
Quick Take: It’s a moodier, glitzier sibling in the Myconian dynasty that trades traditional white-and-blue innocence for black marble and poolside beats.
Reviewed by @dfmarin: I stayed at O by Myconian and the vibe was unmatched. Walking from the busy beach into my private pool suite felt like entering a secret sanctuary. The dark, moody design is so sexy for a couples trip. 10/10 would recommend for a romantic getaway.
Guest Who Stayed Here Said
The hype
Reviewers are obsessed with the staff (especially Ronit at reception) and the 'sunbeds that feel like real beds,' but the layout divides opinion.
Reality check
While cleanliness scores are generally sky-high (9.7), a few outliers have reported 'horribly dirty' rooms and noise bleed from neighbors, suggesting consistency can waver during peak chaos.
You appreciate a 'dark luxury' aesthetic over traditional Cycladic cute
You want to roll out of bed and onto a wind-sheltered beach
You enjoy a social pool scene where looking good is part of the itinerary

5 things to know before you go
💡The 'dark' aesthetic extends to the lighting—doing makeup in some bathrooms can be a challenge.
💡The 'private pools' in ground floor suites are often shaded by lush vegetation (great for privacy, bad for tanning).
💡Room service menu is extensive but pricey; you're paying for the convenience of not leaving your terrace.
💡The 'sleazy' review comment likely refers to the provocative art and voyeuristic glass-walled pool design.
💡You can use amenities at other Myconian Collection properties, but you need to arrange transfers.
