Mykonos is every bit as dazzling as all the pictures you’ve seen. The turquoise waters, white-washed houses, splendid beaches, Grecian antiquities, and lazy seaside taverns – it’s all here. And overlooking all the splendor from its hilltop perch is the Mykonos View by Semeli hotel.
The Mykonos View hotel encompasses six blocks of houses group together along the slopes of a hill, looking down on the fashionable main town of Mykonos, the Aegean Sea and the islands beyond. The layout of the hotel is reminiscent of a small village and offers a glimpse of traditional island life. Accommodations include 38 studios, apartments and maisonettes. All offer gorgeous sea views and are decorated in a variety of styles ranging from the traditional stone-built Mykonos style to more freeform and modern designs using colors and shapes to complement the natural surroundings. All rooms are equipped with kitchens, refrigerators, air conditioning, TV, complimentary Wi-Fi and direct dial telephones.
The hotel’s swimming pool is one of the most beautiful in all of Mykonos, featuring a wooden deck that conjures images of sailing across the sea. The Pool Bar serves breakfast each morning and is the perfect spot for cocktails while relaxing by the pool.
The Mykonos Views’ “Oniro bar” (”Dream bar”) is a work of art built by local artist Zanni Kouka. Drinks here at sunset offers the archetypal Mykonos experience, surrounded by a palette of colors, the play of light and shade, the soft evening breeze and the birds flying across the sky. It is a not to be missed sacred rite beyond description.
The Mykonos View is like having your own secluded Mediterranean hideaway, yet the main town of Hora and all of Mykonos’ famed nightlife, shops, restaurants, beaches and seaport are easily accessible just a short distance away.
