Built into the craggy cliff face overlooking the endless Aegean Sea, just a two-minute stroll from a secluded beach, a Mykonian retreat doesn’t get much better than this. Inside, there’s a low-key styling of neutral tones and natural textures to create a relaxing environment that’s a pleasure to unwind in – especially with a double espresso in the mornings.

When the temperature starts to rise, push open the large glass doors and pick a spot on the terrace – will it be the squashy daybed or perhaps a poolside lounger? After a long, lazy lunch in the sunshine, take a drive through the countryside to Mykonos town for a stroll around the old port and a visit to the historic windmills. As the day draws to a close, devour the catch of the day in a waterside restaurant, before heading home to watch the sky glow orange from the bubbles of your hot tub.
