Villa Cyclades
Facing Mykonos Town and Little Venice, a hilltop estate of a dozen terraces made for sunsets
- 6 bedrooms
- 8 bathrooms
- 14 guests
- 660 m²
Set on a raised hillside directly opposite Mykonos Town, Villa Cyclades looks across Little Venice and the harbour, where every vessel bound for the island glides in. Beyond, Tinos, Syros and a ring of smaller Cycladic islands trace the horizon, and each evening the sun sinks straight into the view. With more than 4,400 m² of grounds, it ranks among the largest private estates on Mykonos.
Life here revolves around the infinity pool, framed by sculpted granite boulders and served by its own bar. Around it, generous pergolas sheltered from the wind and a dozen terraces and lounges offer room to dine for up to twenty, with a barbecue and a wood-fired pizza oven close at hand and an organic kitchen garden supplying the table. The entrance level opens onto the pool with an open-plan kitchen, expansive living and dining rooms and a fireplace for cooler nights. The master suite occupies the entire upper floor, with a spacious shower room, a walk-in dressing area and two private verandas. On the lower level, four double bedrooms each have their own shower room, veranda and sea view, with a separate entrance of their own.
An independent guest house of 60 m² sleeps a family of four, and a fully equipped studio is set aside for housekeeping staff, so the estate comfortably welcomes up to fourteen guests. Geothermal floors heat and cool the house, air conditioning runs through the bedrooms and living room, and there is ample parking. A small beach lies just 500 metres away and a helipad only 200 metres from the villa, making arrivals and island-hopping effortless.
