The hype
Guests are blown away by the aesthetics, sunset views, and breakfast, but many feel the service doesn't always match the astronomical price tag.

Bakit Ito Minamahal ng Mga Tao
- The iconic 38m infinity pool with floating sunbeds that defines Mykonos luxury
- Cave Pool Suites that are arguably the most famous hotel rooms on social media
- Walking distance to Mykonos Town (Chora) without being right in the crush
Mabilis na Sumisid: A stunning, scene-y playground where you pay for the vibe and the view, but privacy and peace are optional extras.
Sinuri ng @AngieVilla: I stayed in the Cave Suite and honestly, swimming into the sunset from my private grotto was the most surreal experience of my life. It's pricey but absolutely worth it for a special occasion.

Reality check
The '24/7' shuttle can be unreliable with long waits, and the concierge is frequently described as aloof or unhelpful unless you're a VIP.
- You thrive in high-energy, social environments where people-watching is the main activity
- You want that specific 'Cave Pool' photo for your feed
- You plan to party in town and want a stylish crash pad nearby
Kalinisan & Pagpapanatili

- Housekeeping: Generally thorough with twice-daily service, though some reports of missed details during peak season.
- Bathroom hygiene: Mostly pristine marble, but occasional complaints about unstable faucets or slow drains in older rooms.
- Maintenance: High traffic means wear and tear shows fast; watch for scuffed paint or 'tired' outdoor furniture.
- Linens & towels: High quality, plush, and plentiful.
- Odors & scents: Signature hotel scent in lobby; occasional whiff of exhaust near the entrance or mustiness in cave rooms.

FAQ & Mga Nakatagong Tip
Lahat ng kailangan mong malaman bago ka magbook.
Is the Cave Pool worth the money?
For the photo? Yes. For the stay? Maybe not—they can be dark, damp, and offer less privacy than you'd think.
How far is the walk to town?
About 10-15 minutes downhill to the Old Port, but the walk back is steep and on a dangerous road. Take the shuttle.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, and it's widely considered one of the best on the island, with a massive buffet and à la carte options.
Can I use the pool if I'm not a guest?
Generally no, unless you have a reservation at the Zuma or Meraki restaurant, and even then, pool access is strict.
Is it kid-friendly?
Technically yes, but there are no kids' clubs or activities, and the vibe is very much 'adult party'.
Does the hotel have a gym?
Yes, but it's small, located in the basement with no windows, and often described as an afterthought.
Mga Insider Tips
- ✨
The 'free' shuttle to town runs on demand, but during peak hours (7-9 PM), you might wait 30+ minutes. Walking is faster if you're brave.
- ✨
Order drinks at the bar yourself rather than waiting for pool service if you want them in under 20 minutes.
- ✨
The best sunset view isn't from the pool (which gets crowded), but from the upper-level corridors near the suites.
