Mykonos

Cool & chic under the Aegean sun, Mykonos is the classic gay Greek tourist 'chill-out' hotspot: by day chill out by your hotel pool, make a trip to one of the islands gay/nudist beaches (hop on the bus to Elia beach - the preferred gay hang out: Paradise and Super Paradise beaches having been overrun by straight, party animal teens) or indulge in a bit of culture: there's not much in Mykonos itself but the historic isle of Delos (one of the most important mythological, historical and archaeological sites in Greece) is a short ferry ride away.

In the evening the picture perfect white-washed Mykonos Town (Chora) is host to fantastic choice of restaurants and bars including several welcoming gay bars (the gay scene here is relaxed - you won't find wild clubs or backrooms you might be used to in other gay resorts) hidden among a maze of paved alleyways winding through the old town areas and harbour side.

If you prefer a slightly quieter location than benig in the town centre itself consider the nearby resorts of Plati Yialos or Ornos, both cute and small beach resorts just a few kilometres south of Mykonos Town itself (in high season buses run 24 hours a day, and a ferry runs from both resorts to the beaches at Paradise, Super Paradise and Elia).

We've cherry-picked a selection of Mykonos Town hotels to suit all budgets and tastes - just perform a search to see what's available and you can make accommodation reservations online right here or call our reservations team for further assistance.

SEASON: SUMMER Only

The resort we offer: Most of our chosen MYKONOS accommodation is centrally located in the Mykonos Town (Chora) area , leaving you within easy walking distance of the town centre along with the gay bars, restaurants and shops. The most popular gay/nudist beach is now at Elia which is a 30 minute bus (there are frequent services in high season, and reasonable services at other times) ride from the town centre: Paradise and Super Paradise beaches are beginning to lose popularity with gay visitors but are also accessible by public transport. Mykonos Airport is about 3kms from the town itself. Clients with wheelchairs should note that many of the towns streets are narrow, paved or steep which may hinder access: we have selected a couple of hotels (the Harmony and Grand Beach) which have adapted rooms that may be suitable.

Elsium Gay Hotel, Mykonos Town

Gay Exclusive

The 'straight friendly' and therefore predominately gay Elysium hotel enjoys an elevated position (this does mean you'll find yourself walking up a steep road to the hotel) in the School of Fine Arts area, just a few minutes walk from the town centre and harbour side. Thanks to it's location most of the hotels rooms enjoy great views from their balconies or terraces across Mykonos Town, the windmills and out to the sea. The Elysium promotes itself as a 'luxury' hotel, but we'd classify it as an average 4* rating: rooms are typical of this standard (although the bathrooms are rather compact!) and the other facilities on offer with the hotel (gym, hydro-massage, a great pool and terrace) ensure that the Elysium remains a popular choice for gay clients.

Gay Friendly

Located on the road to Elia beach, the New Aeolos is a comfortable 3* tourist hotel and about a 10-15 minute walk to the town centre (walking downhill is ok, but you'll probably want to get a taxi back up, especially if you've been out drinking!).

This friendly, family run hotel also offers a 24 hour reception, breakfast room and pool with sun terraces.

Semeli, Mykonos Town

Gay Friendly

With a central location in Mykonos Town, the Semeli is a 4* hotel which aims to bring 'harmony and beauty' together, and offer its clients a 'home from home': in our opinion it's done this pretty well, without being over pretentious! The Semeli has plenty of character and charm: the hotel offers 45 rooms, each decorated and furnished to a high standard (the hotels central town location does however mean you probably won't do more than perhaps glimpse, if that, the sea from most of the rooms) and the high levels of comfort and service continue through to the overall service level, the public areas, the swimming pool, bar, restaurant and fitness centre.
