MYKONOS GRACE - REVIEW
This boutique beachside hotel is aptly named, for it simply oozes style. Reopening after a complete facelift in May 2007, the crisp design lines have been overseen by Athenian architect, Nikos Travasaros. There's nothing showy or pretentious about the place; it's just effortlessly beautiful, cleverly designed and ... well, graceful.
The atmosphere is cool and calm, with touches of grey breaking up the chic white décor which faces you everywhere. The 32 rooms are cleverly laid out over five levels so that almost all of them look out onto Agios Stefanos beach and the island of Delos beyond. Sun worshippers will be in heaven, stretching out on one of the poolside futons, or chilling out down at the beach a minute’s stroll away. And it's perfectly placed for party-goers, just far enough out of Mykonos town to escape the noise of the throbbing nightlife, but near enough so that you can dip into the clubbing scene after a ten minute taxi ride. |
