What's on in Mykonos Town

  1. April, dates vary

    Greek Orthodox Easter

    Candlelit processions wind through the whitewashed lanes and midnight fireworks light the harbour before the island's summer season begins. Mykonos at its most authentic.

  2. 15 August

    Feast of Panagia Tourliani, Ano Mera

    The Assumption is celebrated at the sixteenth-century monastery of Panagia Tourliani in Ano Mera with services and village festivities. The island's most important religious feast.

  3. Late August

    XLSIOR Mykonos

    One of the world's biggest gay summer festivals brings a week of international DJs and beach parties to the island. Book villas and tables months in advance.

  4. Odd-numbered years, dates vary

    Mykonos Biennale

    A boutique arts biennale scatters film, performance and installations through the town's historic spaces. A cultural counterpoint to the beach-club calendar.

Mykonos Town through the seasons

  1. Spring (April – May)

    Whitewash, windmills and quiet lanes

    Little Venice and the Kato Mili windmills without the crowds, Easter celebrations and the season's first warm swims. The best light of the year for the photogenic old town.

  2. Summer (June – August)

    Beach clubs and harbour nights

    The island's legendary season: the beach clubs at Psarou and Paradise by day, sunset cocktails in Little Venice and world-class DJs after dark. A private villa is the essential retreat from it all.

  3. Autumn (September – October)

    Warm seas and easier tables

    The Aegean stays warm, the meltemi wind softens and the best restaurants finally have space. Delos day trips are at their most pleasant.

  4. Winter (November – March)

    The islanders' Mykonos

    Most clubs close and the town returns to its fishing-village self, with locals' kafeneia and bracing harbour walks. For those curious about the island behind the glamour.

The Area: Chora and its Cycladic charm

Chora is the island's beating heart: marble-paved lanes, bougainvillea against whitewash, and the Kato Mili windmills crowning the rise above the harbour. In Little Venice, eighteenth-century captains' houses drop straight to the sea, the classic spot for a sunset aperitif, while the Paraportiani church and the old port anchor the town's Cycladic character. What sets a stay here apart is life on foot: coffee in a shaded square, an evening stroll to dinner, no car needed until you want a beach further afield. A villa on the slopes above town, or in the hills just behind, adds the privacy and panoramic views that Chora's tight lanes cannot.

Where to stay: choosing a luxury villa in Mykonos Town

Our more than 220 luxury villas in Mykonos Town and its encircling hills suit travellers who want walkability paired with seclusion. Homes above Chora look over the harbour and the Aegean, many with infinity pools angled at the sunset. Around Tourlos and Agios Stefanos, villas sit above the new port, convenient for yacht and ferry arrivals with town ten minutes away. For a beach on the doorstep, choose Ornos, Psarou or Platis Gialos, organised bays a short drive south. And if you would rather trade the town for the island's remoter sands at Elia or Kalafati, our island-wide Mykonos collection covers those. Expect minimalist Cycladic interiors, generous terraces and discreet service.

Things to do

Lose the map in Chora's lanes, where designer boutiques, jewellers and galleries fill the alleys between chapels, and the town's archaeological and maritime museums repay a slow hour. Boats leave the old port for Delos, the ancient sacred island half an hour offshore and the essential excursion. Photograph the windmills at first light before the day boats land, swim at Ornos or Agios Ioannis facing Delos across the water, or charter a yacht for the southern coves. Your concierge can secure beach-club daybeds, spa treatments, guides for Delos and the tables that book out weeks ahead in season.

Dining and nightlife

Chora is a dining capital in miniature. Tavernas serve grilled fish, Greek meze and Mykonian louza and kopanisti, while a roster of ambitious kitchens brings refined Mediterranean cooking to the waterfront and the back lanes. Little Venice takes the sunset shift, cocktails passed over heads as waves hit the terraces. Later, the town's bars and clubs draw an international crowd, with the scene continuing at the beach clubs along the southern coast. The advantage of a villa is choosing your dose: in the thick of it by night, silence and a private pool by morning, with concierge holding the reservations.

When to visit and getting there

The season runs roughly from May to October. June and September offer warm seas, long days and a more relaxed town, while July and August bring peak heat, energy and crowds. Mykonos Island National Airport (JMK) receives seasonal flights from many European cities and year-round connections via Athens, and the transfer into town takes minutes. Ferries and high-speed catamarans link the new port at Tourlos with Piraeus, Rafina and neighbouring Cyclades such as Paros, Naxos and Santorini. Smiling House can arrange private airport and port transfers so your arrival is seamless.
