Electra Mikonos, Mykonos

Holiday Rental Description

With enough Greek gorgeousness to be a cast member in Mamma Mia!, this home on the Mykonos coast is the sort of place that fills our dreams. There may only be a three-colour scheme, but they each pack a punch. The aquamarine infinity pool sits between the cerulean sky and navy Aegean ocean - and on clear days you can see across to Naxos and Paros from the water. Inside, everything is a slick combination of black and white, adding a modern touch to the traditional Cyclades building. An L-shaped, built-in sofa occupies most of the white-washed living room, and with sliding doors that let the sea breeze in, you can still enjoy the panoramas from inside. Bedrooms are equally as chic, with white walls, black hanging lights, and driftwood headboards. Several also have their own balconies, which is perfect for watching the sun rise with a cup of coffee. For a change of scenery, follow the steep path straight down to the stretch of beach, before returning for sunset on the terrace table and soaks in the hot tub.

Home truths:
*The infinity pool is not fenced in so small children should be kept an eye on
*Some of the bedrooms have showers and sinks in the same room as the bed
*Some of the balcony walls are quite low, so take care when on them
