Wake up to stunning views over Little Venice and Mykonos' old town from this spectacular six-bedroom villa. Set within 4.5 acres of private grounds and close to Ornos beach, you can enjoy the best of both worlds – the privacy of your own expansive grounds, and easy access to one of the island's most family-friendly and trendiest beaches.

The villa combines contemporary style with traditional Cycladic architecture to create a coastal escape that gives off a breezy barefoot vibe with the high-end finishes you'd expect of a luxury stay, creating a truly irresistible combo. Think eye-catching artwork, mid-century-inspired furniture and a state-of-the-art kitchen surrounded by wood beams, elegant archways and exposed stonework.

Its exterior spaces are no less lovely, with those previously mentioned jaw-dropping views taking centre stage, whether you're stretched out in the covered seating area, soaking up some sun by the pool, or serving up your homemade interpretations of Mykonian classics at the outdoor dining table.

Away from the villa, there are a variety of beaches nearby offering everything from secluded coves to raucous beach parties and everything in between. Whatever your preference, there'll be something to suit. After a day soaking up the sun, why not don your glad rags and drive the short distance into Mykonos Town? Pose for a selfie by the iconic windmills and sip sundowners by the waters of Little Venice, before wandering into the narrow cobbled lanes of the old town in search of mouthwatering morsels for dinner.
