Welcome to Villa Ixos, an exquisite and delightful retreat nestled in the serene surroundings of Mykonos. This luxurious villa has been thoughtfully designed by its owners to embody the essence of eudaemonia – a concept rooted in personal happiness and fulfillment, celebrating a life well-lived with a minimalist touch and a genuine appreciation for life's simple pleasures. The owners' philosophy revolves around fostering creativity, nurturing curiosity, and embracing new adventures.
Drawing inspiration from the glistening sea salt and the iconic white houses of Mykonos shining in the sunlight from above, the villa seamlessly blends traditional stonework exteriors with the area's classic whitewashed charm.
The villa boasts a generously sized outdoor pool, affectionately referred to as the 'water lounge.' Here, you can bask in the inviting aquamarine waters, savor a refreshing beverage on the pool steps, and relish the lush scenery that surrounds you. Drift along on an inflatable ring, soaking up the Mediterranean sun. Encircled by protective stone walls mirroring the exteriors and fragrant blossoming bushes, the pool area creates a sense of retreat. A poolside pergola provides a haven for outdoor living, featuring cozy seating where you can unwind and dine al fresco using the available barbecue.
For the ultimate relaxation, the hammock area beckons you to swing gently while stealing glimpses of the sparkling Aegean Sea through picturesque stone-framed windows. But the most coveted spot to witness the renowned Mykonos sunsets is the rooftop terrace. From this vantage point, the breathtaking views of the rolling hills adorned with white houses and the vibrant blue sea inlets are nothing short of awe-inspiring.
Simplicity reigns supreme at Villa Ixos, evident in the uniform bedroom decor that runs throughout the property. These meticulously designed bedrooms prioritize restful sleep, featuring soundproofing and exceptionally comfortable beds adorned with pristine linens. Each room exudes an airy ambiance with its white palette and subtle touches of pale wood and elegantly curved furnishings.
Touches of sunny yellow patterned cushions infuse bursts of color into the rooms. Among the six bedrooms, four offer queen-sized beds, while the remaining two provide a choice between queen or twin beds. Superior sound systems enhance the ambiance of each bedroom, with several offering captivating sea views. Bedrooms on the first floor grant direct access to the pool terrace through floor-to-ceiling windows. The ensuite bathrooms, adorned in pristine white, range from charming Mykonos showers to stylish freestanding bathtubs, adding to the villa's allure.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa IxosNestled in the tranquil northern enclave of Mykonos known as Kastro, within Fanari, lies this remarkable villa. Conveniently situated just a short drive away from both Mykonos town and the New Port, and a mere 18 minutes from the airport, its location offers ease of access for visitors. The rooftop unveils a captivating panorama that includes the iconic octagonal-towered lighthouse situated in the area. This functioning lighthouse plays a crucial role in guiding maritime traffic between the island and its neighboring counterpart, Tinos. The spectacle of sunset from this vantage point is truly breathtaking.
Mykonos, a distinguished gem of the Cycladic region in the deep blue expanse of the Aegean Sea, is renowned worldwide. This idyllic island boasts a myriad of treasures, from upscale dining and exceptional shopping to its world-famous beaches. As the sun sets, the island comes alive with an electric nightlife. Nearby, Fanari Castle stands as the last vestige of the Byzantine-era fortifications. Positioned on a hillside, this fortress, dating back to the 12th century, remains remarkably well-preserved, a testament to its historical significance.
Mykonos Town, an artistic and fashionable hub, offers enchanting explorations through its labyrinthine alleys. The dazzling white Cycladic architecture adorned with bougainvillaea is nothing short of picturesque. Matogianni Street serves as an excellent starting point, lined with charming boutiques and souvenir shops, exuding a bustling and romantic ambiance. Art enthusiasts can indulge their curiosity at various intriguing galleries in town, such as the Dio Horia. Mykonos Town has its iconic array of seven windmills, is a sight immediately recognizable from postcards. These windmills, thought to have been constructed by the Venetians, have become symbolic of the island and historically powered local mills. Alefkandra Harbour, affectionately dubbed "Little Venice," adds to the island's charm with its cobblestone walkways and coastal dining spots. It's an instagrammers dream! Sit here for a cocktail whilst the waves lap up.
Of course, Mykonos is equally renowned for its pristine beaches that adorn every corner of the island. The untamed and secluded beaches grace the northern expanse, while the more popular ones embrace the southern shores. In the southern part of the island, Elia Beach stands out as an exceptional choice, boasting the title of Mykonos' longest beach. With its well-organized facilities and vibrant atmosphere, it's an excellent spot for relaxation. The golden sands and pebbles, nestled amid verdant slopes, offer not only beachside enjoyment but also the opportunity to climb up for a spectacular hillside view.
Agios Stefanos Beach, conveniently located near both the villa and Mykonos Town, is a hot spot during the summer months. Its turquoise waters glisten invitingly, providing a perfect backdrop for water sports enthusiasts. Meanwhile, Paradise Beach is the epicenter of lively parties and vibrant festivities.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesA holiday in Mykonos is bound to be an exciting and memorable experience for children of all ages. Though Mykonos is sometimes thought of as a party island, there are many peaceful and family-friendly areas that are perfect for children. Kastro, a quiet village, is an ideal tranquil setting for a holiday with kids in tow.
Ornos beach is one of the best beaches on Mykonos for families travelling with children. Its amazing swirling shades of blue are bound to impress kids of any age. They'll love strolling along the powdery white sand and building sandcastles, not to mention happily splashing around in the sea. Elia beach is also perfect for taking children to - at this beach children can try out watersports and there's plenty of room to find a quiet spot along its golden shoreline. Children can swim and snorkel happily here.
The villa is a welcoming and calm place for children to relax. The sparkling pool is bound to be a big hit - they'll love floating along in one of the pool inflatables and jumping in. There's plenty of space outdoors for children to relax, especially around the pergola and they will definitely love the hammock room and stunning views.
Children will love visiting the iconic seven windmills of Mykonos - they're a fascinating sight and a great photo opportunity. The town itself is charming and children are bound to enjoy wandering around the beautiful streets, popping in and out of little shops. Locals are friendly and go out of their way to welcome children - they'll probably leave with more than a few free treats and snacks!
Sea-kayaking is a popular activity around the island - rent a kayak from one of the shops at the beaches and set off to discover hidden coves, interesting rock formations and plenty of wildlife.
Around Mykonos, there are plenty of family-friendly activities for kids to get stuck into. A delightful retro open-air cinema called Cine Manto shows a variety of films, including children's and animated movies. They can even order drinks and fresh food to enjoy during the film.

Comfortable and Cozy
Amazing place!!! and the host is incredible !! I will definitely go again!

More beautiful than we imagined
Truly a trip of a lifetime for my closest friends and family. Bruno and his team were absolutely incredible and were available whenever we needed them. The villa was more beautiful than we imagined. The pictures don't even do it justice! So clean and beautifully decorated. The views and the sunsets took our breath away. It is in a beautiful quiet spot about 15-20 mins from town. So the nightlife is there if you want it. We are already planning our trip back next year!
