At a glance

Mykonos is the perfect destination for a luxurious holiday. Its stunning beaches, vibrant nightlife and whitewashed buildings make it the ultimate Greek island experience.

It’s often referred to as the “Manhattan of the Aegean” – and we can see why. This is the Greek island that never sleeps – you can enjoy sunset drag shows and sunrise dance parties.

From its sparkling five-star resorts to the traditional white tavernas that offer authentic Greek cuisine, Mykonos caters for everyone – from those looking to party, to those looking to unwind on a superyacht.

Many of our handpicked properties in Mykonos offer unparalleled privacy and comfort, complete with some unmatched views of the Aegean Sea and classic windmills that sit scattered amongst the hills.

For more active pursuits during your stay, there are plenty of water sports on offer here, such as jet skiing, parasailing and windsurfing.

Indulge your taste buds at fine dining restaurants featuring delicious Mediterranean cuisine, or head to chic beach clubs serving up fresh seafood and cocktails. Mykonos truly has something to suit everyone’s palate.

Elia Beach is perhaps the most popular of the beaches in Mykonos. It features crystal-clear waters and plenty of sunbeds, and is popular with families.

For those looking for something a little more lively, head to Super Paradise Beach where you’ll find the world-famous Jackie O’s Beach Club.

LGBT Rights in Greece
The state of LGBTQ+ rights has made significant progress in recent years in Greece, although hardships and inequalities still persist in areas outside of the major cities. The country has undergone a widespread legal and societal transformation that has begun to improve the rights and protections for LGBTQ+ individuals.

When it comes to legal advancements, Greece decriminalised same-sex sexual activity in 1951, and in 2015, the Greek Parliament passed a law that recognized civil partnerships for same-sex couples, granting them legal recognition and many of the same rights as married heterosexual couples. However, marriage equality has still not been achieved, as same-sex marriages are not legally recognised.

The legal system in Greece prohibits discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation in employment and certain other areas. However, LGBTQ+ individuals continue to face discrimination and social stigma in various aspects of their lives. Homophobic and transphobic attitudes persist in some parts of society, especially in more remote and rural areas.

On a positive note, Athens, the capital city, has a vibrant LGBTQ+ community with a thriving nightlife scene, with an annual Pride parade that attracts thousands of participants from across the globe. LGBTQ+ organizations and advocacy groups in Greece actively work to promote equal rights and social acceptance.

Though LGBTQ+ travellers can enjoy visiting all areas of Greece’s diverse landscape, the gorgeous island of Mykonos is a particular favorite amongst the LGBTQ+ community. In Mykonos, you’ll find a plethora of gay-focused bars and clubs as well as some of Europe’s most beautiful gay beaches.
