Heaven on Earth. Best in early Summer to catch the new growth of plants before High temperatures start and scorch the landscape..》》》》
Nice beach, a 8-10 minutes ride from the city center, quiet, clean water, soft sand and many cafés and sunbeds available. Just ask the price of the food and drinks (we stayed at the DJ Oyster sunbeds, I think it belongs to Mykonos Kosmoplaz Beach Resort Hotel because when we asked for a taxi they told us to go there and the 2 places are directly connected) because you can easily pay almost 120 euros for 2 ice-cream, water and juices (and my math must be off, but how do they charge you that?? 9.5 18 20 50 is not almost 120). Apparently, there are other comments on Google of people complaining about the same, so just be careful and maybe try to find sunbeds that you can book for a fixed price and bring your own snacks. I felt totally robbed and that was the first time during my vacations in Greece. Honestly, shame on you! Answer to your response: you told the same thing to other people's comments and I find it difficult to believe it's not all your business since the café and lounges are connected directly to the hotel, and the staff took us to your hotel's reception for the "taxi" (private shuttle). So, please, don't fool us. My vacations in Greece were wonderful, everything but this experience in you café / sunbeds. And I'm not the first, if you read the other comments.
I stayed there on a holiday with my sister and we had the best time. The hotel is beautiful and is very well run. The concierges and all the staff, especially Dmitri, Manos and Thomas, are wonderful at their jobs and we didn't lack a thing in their care. The hotel really was a home away from home and all the facilities are top notch.
The hotel and the staff of this place are excelent.Everything was perfect.Thank you Mykonos Kosmoplaz.Hope to see you Soon.
AVOID THIS HOTEL & Beach sun loungers ... If i could give it zero start I would ... i strolled up and was offered a free sun lounger if I had a drink so i stayed and thought ok it might be bit more expensive drink but what they hey, so order a vodka and coke zero and lay on the beds for about and hour as the music they play ends up being elevator music they have about 10 tracks on repeat .. I asked if they had a food menu and was told can only eat in the restaurant so said no (i’ve been to almost all beaches of note in Mykonos and all serve food at the sun loungers, one much much better than this place) so had enough of the music and strict rules and ask for the bill ... while i was waiting for the bill noticed another sign saying you can’t level the sun lounger for more than 10 mins ! then the bill came remember I had one vodka and coke zero and it was 48 euro ! it was 15 for a 330 ml bottle of coke zero and 25 for a glass of vodka .. well i obviously said to the waiter 48 euro !! I then understood why it was half empty ... anyway after the rubbish music and bad atmosphere there i was glad i asked for the bill after only spending an hour .. THIS PLACE IS SIMPLY RIPPING PEOPLE OFF AVOID AVOID you have been warned. go to others places and beaches ... for me just a lesson learned The hotel responds to all by saying the beach and sun lounger are not part of the hotel but if you read their advertising on their web site and on Trip Advisor they list the private beach and sun loungers as part of the hotel .. i’ve copied and pasted below from the trip advisor hotel description to show.. This hotel is simply ripping customers off and think we are fools ... you will kick yourself if you stay at this hotel .. my and many other reviews say AVOID and i recommend you do AVOID.
In summary, this is a great hotel with a horribly overpriced and jammed oyster restaurant. Here is the breakdown: - the staff are phenomenal, they are so knowledgeable and friendly. The reception crew is the best crew I have seen in my entire life. They give great and honest recommendations, they made our stay worthwhile. - the pool is super relaxing and not so big, but it’s not so crowded so it’s awesome. - the rooms are outdated but really clean and kept in good condition. - the breakfast is good but it is jammed in a tiny corner in the lobby with no room to really put your plate down while you fill up a cup of tea. But you get to sit outside by the beach while eating so that’s a nice touch. - loved the fact that we were given fresh beach towels daily. ****NOTE: we were not so happy that even with a room you don’t get a beach sun bed. You have to pay 40euros for it, it is a rip off. You will need to go to adjacent hotels or to the very end of the beach and set up on the sand. I was not so happy with that because most hotels give their guests at least one sun bed per room.
Amazing hotel, restaurant and service.
