Location
About the surrounding area of Villa AlekmuVilla Alekmu is located on the southern tip of the island of Mykonos, part of the Cyclades in the heart of the Aegean Sea. The exclusive island of Mykonos measures only ten kilometres long, by fifteen kilometres wide, so wherever you want to go it’s only a short drive away. The villa is a few kilometres from Mykonos airport, which is served by both local and international flight operators. If you are island hopping, then nearby Naxos and Syros also have their own airports. The new port of Mykonos is a hub of activity for those landing and departing from island hopping ferries, or super yachts cruising the Aegean, and is a quick twenty minute drive to the villa.
The villa is near the resort town of Elia on the south coast, famous for its white sandy beaches, and stylish seafront restaurants. The nearby Agrari Beach is family-friendly, offering a selection of water sports, a playground, and cafes and bars, the south coast beaches have calmer sea waters than those in the north. Near the villa, there is a tennis court, fitness centre, and fishing opportunities. The coastline is populated by many beautiful golden sandy beaches, take your pick from nearby nudist Elia beach to the family-friendly favourite of Plays Gialos Beach, or party, party, party all day long on Super Paradise Beach, with its crystal clear waters, restaurants, bars, and clubs with resident DJs.
During daylight hours play penance in one of the eight hundred churches that populate the island, most notably Paraportiani, which is a unique construction combining four styles of architecture. Take a visit to Mykonos town, known locally as Chora, and only an eight minute drive from the villa. Here you can wander the maze of streets with the colourful Cycladic houses, and do some serious designer label shopping in one of the many luxury boutiques. Choose a table at a seafront restaurant and enjoy a dish of freshly caught seafood, whilst sipping ouzo and watching the beautiful people pass by.
Find out the island’s history and culture at the Archaeological Museum, the Folk Museum, and the Maritime Museum, then go out of town to Lena’s House to discover how the islanders lived. Take a walk up to the landmark windmills, known as Kato Mili, where once the wheat was ground to make bread and is now a mini museum and residencies. Walk along the waterfront to Little Venice, where original merchant houses overhang the sea, and is now home to fabulous cafes, bars, restaurants and galleries, best enjoyed at sunset with a retsina or two. Admire the Armenistis lighthouse, still fully functioning and an essential asset of Mykonos’ maritime history.
No visit to Mykonos is complete without a day at sea, join a catamaran jolly and snorkel in the sea, or if you’re feeling flush, charter your own yacht and discover secret coves and hidden bays and beaches. For the romantics, nothing beats a sunset cruise, cocktail in hand as the sun sets over the horizon. Further afield the uninhabited island of Delos is well worth a visit, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, home to the birthplace of Zeus and Leto, go with a group or arrange your own private tour.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesA holiday on the island of Mykonos offers a variety of activities suitable for families with children. Villa Alekmu features a private infinity swimming pool with easy beach access, allowing kids to enjoy endless playtime. Additionally, the villa includes a children’s playground in a shaded area with eucalyptus trees and a ping-pong table in the front yard.
Each bedroom is equipped with smart televisions for entertainment during cooler evenings. Nearby Agrari Beach provides water sports for older children, a playground for younger ones, as well as a café and bar. Mykonos' coastline boasts numerous family-friendly beaches, particularly on the calmer south coast. Recommended spots include Agios Ioannis Beach, with pre-bookable sun loungers and parasols, Kalo Livadi offering views of the Cyclades, and Panormos Beach featuring a popular restaurant with oversized bean bags.
Younger children may enjoy visiting the Animal Organic Farm for hands-on experiences with livestock and seasonal crops, while older kids can explore the island's landscape on guided hikes, culminating in a refreshing swim.
A day at sea is another family favourite, whether island hopping on a shared Catamaran or chartering a yacht to discover secluded coves and beaches, ideal for swimming and snorkelling among friendly marine life. Creative activities such as mosaic workshops or family cooking lessons with local chefs are also available. A visit to Mykonos town is recommended for its winding streets, souvenir shopping, meeting Petros the Pelican, and enjoying a meal at a seaside taverna.
For active pursuits, Mykonos boasts Greece's best Go-Kart track, open daily from April to November, as well as horseback riding in Ano Mera. A trip to the nearby uninhabited island of Delos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and mythological birthplace, offers a memorable family excursion accessible by private charter or shared tour.
