We stayed at this hotel right after a stay at Tsitouras in Santorini, so we were a bit worried that this place would not live up to the same standards. Thankfully, this hotel was beautiful. We booked a deluxe room, which was huge and had a balcony overlooking the pool. There was also a sauna/steam shower in our room! Breakfast was included in the rate, and was a full menu consisting of hot and cold breakfast foods and an omelette station - not the continental breakfast you normally get at other places. The pool was spectacular, with plenty of chairs for lounging and sunbathing. The crowd is typical for Mykonos - young couples, young singles, and some families - but maybe a bit more upscale than you might find elsewhere.

As far as location, he hotel is situated on its own beach, and is also only a 5 minute bus ride to Ornos Beach, which is really popular and happening. The bus stop is literally steps away from the hotel's front entrance, and you can buy bus tickets in advance at the little convenience store on the corner. The ride to Mykonos Town is about 15 minutes, so we went into town everyday for lunch and dinner.

This hotel also has a full service spa, including a couples suite for massages, which my wife and I enjoyed thoroughly. Prices are comparable to those in any upscale spa. The gym is not as nice as a private gym, but nice by hotel standards.

Service was great here too. When we were checking out, they even let us stay in our room until 6pm, free of charge, since our flight did not depart until 7:45pm - and the transfers to/from the seaport and airport were complimentary.

In our opinion, Santorini is nicer than Mykonos (same goes for the hotels there), but it depends what you are looking for, and comparing the two is like comparing apples and oranges. We enjoyed our stay here, and would say that overall, it was a very nice experience!

The Hotel is excellent in every aspect: fine beach, good bedrooms, swimpool, restaurant, and espectacular views. The sunset in particulary is overwelming! Next trip to Mykonos I will stay there definitely.

My boyfriend and I stayed at Mykonos Grand for 3 days in October and it was fabulous. We were supposed to stay at a property next door but they unexpectedly closed early for the season. I had arranged a private villa w/ pool at the other property so my agent was able to get us a room with pool at Mykonos Grand. Even though it was the end of the season, the weather was perfect and the views were beautiful. We stayed in a suite with private pool which I highly recommend. The pool is private in that it's for your use only, but as another reviewer mentioned, it is not private from the view of other rooms. Our room was right behind the hotel pool and restaurant/bar and we had only to pick up the phone and fresh drinks were delivered to our patio/pool area. Dinner in the restaurant was very expensive and while the food was good, we enjoyed our meal at Katrin's in downton Mykonos much more and it was less expensive. The buffet breakfast was very good and even though we were late for breakfast the first morning, they kept everything out for us and patiently waited for us to finish. The hotel staff was very accomodating, courteous and professional. The rooms are laid out a bit strange in that you have to keep taking elevators down (the resort is built into a cliff) but you eventually find your way. The rooms were decorated very nicely (beds were a little uncomfortable) and kept very clean. We fell in love with this lovely town and can't wait to return. I would highly recommend Mykonos Grand.

Our first trip Sept of 2004 to Mykonos was most enjoyable because of the Mykonos Grand. The owner, Mr. Argiris Dactilidis, did a fantastic job of this hotel and resort. In fact, he drives the hotel's shuttle bus and is very informative about Mykonos. One of his son's runs this hotel. The staff is outstanding and they treat you like king and queen. They make you feel that you are part of their family. Definitely attend the "Greek Night" at their sister hotel in downtown Mykonos. It was one night that we will never forget.
