Mykonos Grand Hotel & Resort, Mykonos, Aegean Islands, Greece

Morning floats over Agios Ioannis in soft silver, the sacred island of Delos rising on the horizon while waves comb the beach below.

Mykonos Grand Hotel & Resort is a whitewashed amphitheater of rooms and suites set right on the sand, with a signature sea-view pool, a serene spa, and stone paths scented with thyme.

It’s the quiet, sunlit side of Mykonos—beachfront calm with an elegant, contemporary pulse.

What Makes It Special

• True beachfront on Agios Ioannis with loungers and sunset views toward Delos.
• A 35-meter saltwater pool above the sea, plus a well-equipped gym and tennis court.
• Althea Spa Retreat for Greek-inspired rituals and a peaceful hydro area.
• Nama Restaurant for refined Greek cuisine; an adjacent wine cellar hosts tastings and pairings.
• A stone open-air amphitheater used for yoga and intimate events—pure island theater.

A Day at Mykonos Grand

Morning

Barefoot to the beach for your first dip; the water’s glass-clear and cool. Back on the terrace: strained yogurt with thyme honey, warm koulouri, and sun-sweet tomatoes. Stretch in the stone amphitheater as swallows loop over the seats and Delos glows across the strait. 

Afternoon

Claim a lounger by the saltwater pool; cicadas start their rhythm. Play a set on the tennis court, then cool off at Althea Spa where citrus oils and sea air mingle

Evening

Golden hour turns Mykonos to honey. Settle at Nama for grilled day-catch with capers and lemon, or a plate of dakos and a crisp Assyrtiko from the cellar’s tastings. 

Night

From your balcony (or private-pool suite), watch the last boats stitch white lines across the bay; the surf keeps time like a slow metronome.

Insider Tips for Mykonos Grand Hotel & Resort

• Sunrise is the quietest swim—step into the sea before breakfast and you’ll often have Agios Ioannis entirely to yourself.
• Pool-area rooms are near breakfast, main pool and beach; want calm? Go higher up.
• Hotel evening shuttle to Mykonos Town (free) — grab the timetable before you book dinner.
• Sundowners at the bar facing the Aegean = must-do.
• Pool rooms = quickest access to pool & restaurant; private/jacuzzi pool suites are splurge-worthy for special trips.
• Spa pool: book a slot — repeatedly called calming and memorable.
• Feels serene and upscale — great for couples and calm-seeking adults; less ideal for rowdy teens/party-first trips.
