Location
About the surrounding area of Villa PindusVilla Pindus is perched at the apex of a small complex on a sheer hillside overlooking Choulakia Bay, found on the northwest coast of the jet-set Cycladic island of Mykonos, 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 only five 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 nearest beach is Choulakia Bay, only a three hundred metre walk away, with its unique protected pebbles, it is an area of natural beauty, and quiet too. The coastal village of Tourlos is south of the villa, and is fabulously cosmopolitan, with celebrity-spotting seafront bars and traditional tavernas, and local mini-marts to cater for all your holiday catering. The coastline is populated with many beautiful golden sandy beaches, the nearest one is the family-friendly favourite of Agios Stephanos two kilometres away, or take it up a notch and party, party, party all day long on the hedonistic Paradise Beach, with its crystal clear waters, restaurants, bars, and clubs with resident DJs. During daylight seek solace in one of the eight hundred churches that populate the island, most notably Paraportiani, which is a unique construction combining four styles of architecture, or nearby the church of St George Spilinnos, uniquely built into the cavity of the rocks.
Take a visit to Mykonos old town, known locally as Chora, and only four kilometres from the villa. Here you can wander the maze of streets with the colourful Cycladic houses strewn with beautiful bougainvillaea, and do some serious designer shopping in one of the many luxury label boutiques. Take a seat 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, and go out slightly of town to Lena’s House to discover how the islanders lived. Take a walk up to the landmark windmills, or as they are known locally, 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 the original and colourful merchant houses overhang the sea, and is now home to cafes, bars, restaurants, and galleries, best enjoyed as the sun sets 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 charter your own yacht complete with a captain, 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. Hop aboard a ferry for a day trip to the adjacent island of Tinos, visit the landmark Renaissance-style Church of Panagia Evangelistria, tilt at windmills, visit the fifty villages, walk the ancient fortifications, and coo at the famous dovecotes. 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. And of course, you can always island hop from the new port of Mykonos, where the Aegean Sea is your oyster.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesYour kids will just love a holiday on the island of Mykonos, starting with Villa Pindus’ private infinity swimming pool, and as there are no set hours they can play and splash all day. The nearest pebble beach is Choulakia Bay, only three hundred metres steep walk down and back again. The Mykonos coastline is populated with lots of family-friendly sandy beaches, which may be more suitable. We especially recommend the golden sands of Platys Gialos, Agios Ioannis, Ornos, Agios Stefanos, and Kalo Livadi beaches, noted for being family-friendly, organised so that sun beds and parasols can be booked in advance, providing facilities such as bars, cafes, and water sports, and most especially easy entry calmer sea waters.
Your younger children may enjoy a visit to the Animal Organic Farm, where they can pet and feed the livestock, harvest seasonal crops, enjoy some time in nature, and keep themselves busy with some farming tasks. Whilst your older kids could take a hike over the island’s landscape, exploring the local flora and fauna, ending with a cooling dip in the sea. All the family will love a day at sea, whether it’s island hopping aboard a shared Catamaran, or chartering a yacht and discovering secret coves and hidden bays and beaches, and swimming and snorkelling spotting local marine life. Keep your creatives happy with a mosaic workshop, or a family cooking lesson with a local chef teaching you all to make traditional Greek dishes.
A trip to Mykonos town is a must, wander the winding streets, shop for souvenirs, meet Petros the Pelican, the mascot of Mykonos, and then enjoy a family-friendly meal in a seaside taverna. For your intellectually curious offspring, there’s the Archaeological Museum, the Maritime Museum, the Folk Museum, and Lena’s House, all within walking distance of the old town. A short walk along the seafront will take you to Little Venice, a pirate’s paradise of a maze of streets with colourful houses overhanging the sea. Tilt at windmills at the top of the town, the landmark of Mykonos, where they used to grind wheat and make bread for the islanders, now a mini museum and some are even residencies. The Lighthouse of Mykonos is seven kilometres northeast of the town, and well worth a visit for the stunning sea views of the island of Tinos, and to watch the boats arriving and departing from the harbour.
Mykonos is home to the best Go-Kart track in Greece, open every day from April until November from 10 am until 2 am in the morning.For those who prefer a more natural form of transport, they can mount a pony and go horseback riding in the nearby village of Ano Mera. If you want to venture further afield, take a trip to the adjacent island of Delos is a delight, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the birthplace of Zeus and Leto, Apollo and Artemis.
