Myconian Korali Relais & Chateaux Hotel

Myconian Korali Relais & Chateaux Hotel

Myconian Korali sits above Mykonos town, four kilometres from the harbour, close enough to Megali Ammos, Choras Mikonou and Korfos beaches that a walk down the hill feels like part of the day rather than a taxi ride. The eighty rooms and suites climb the hillside toward the Aegean, and a handful, including the Premium Junior Suite and the Standard Double Room, have a private pool on the terrace rather than a communal one. Guests who prefer jets to a plunge can book a Jacuzzi suite in the Superior or Junior categories, most of them facing the water. The hotel operates under the Relais & Chateaux name, a small collection of independently run properties rather than a chain built for scale, and that shows at the table: the in-house Relais et Chateaux restaurant serves ingredients sourced locally and kept for guests here, with Baos Restaurant and the Kitrino Bar for something less formal. The Satory Spa, a gym, sauna and a doctor on call mean a stay doesn't require leaving the grounds, though the outdoor pool and sun deck are there for anyone who'd rather sit and look at the sea. Pets are allowed, unusual at this level of finish, and staff speak English, French, German, Italian and Spanish, so requests rarely get lost in translation. It suits a couple who want sea views and a private pool without renting a villa, or a solo traveller happy to eat well on site rather than hunt for a table in town. It doesn't suit anyone who wants to walk into Mykonos Town after dinner, since the centre is four kilometres down the hill, best covered by the hotel's own transfer. Eighty rooms climb a Mykonos hillside above the Aegean, several with their own terrace pool instead of a shared one. It suits couples who want sea views and privacy without a villa, not anyone hoping to walk into town after dark, since the centre is four kilometres downhill.
