The Best Accommodation Options in Mykonos
For your stay you must first decide where to stay on the island of Mykonos. What is more important, (the most nightlife, shopping, and restaurants) or one of the best Mykonos beaches. In addition, transportation within the island of Mykonos is also important.
Buses run regularly (and late) from the main beaches to and from Mykonos Town, so it’s easy to stay in one spot and enjoy the other. My advice is to stay in Mykonos Town and take the bus to beach through the day. Then return to town in the late afternoon and get ready to enjoy the evening when Mykonos Town really comes alive. The best place to stay in Mykonos for partying is Mykonos Town, for families it’s Ornos or Platis Gialos, and for romance and honeymoons stay in Agios Ioannis, Psarou, or Mykonos Town (though pretty much every town is perfect for a honeymoon holiday).
Staying in Mykonos Town
Capital city of Mykonos island, also known as Hora/Chora, is a charming tangle of narrow pedestrian-only streets – you will want to get lost in. So, where to stay in Mykonos Town? The historic core is densely packed with guesthouses, hotels, restaurants, and bars; tavernas dot the waterfront, and there are two bona fide shopping streets, lined with Greek fashion boutiques, art stores, and touristy shops. Little Venice is a dense cluster of waterside bars and a favorite gathering place at sunset, as are the picturesque Cycladic Kato Mili windmills. A couple of worthwhile museums and an open-air cinema add to the town’s attractions. There are excellent bus connections to the beaches and interior villages of the island.
