Expert Review: Myconian Villa Collection
The Myconian Villa Collection, a Michelin Key Selected property on Mykonos, Greece, consistently garners high praise for its luxurious accommodations, breathtaking views, and exceptional service. Perched on a hillside above Elia Beach, it offers a serene and exclusive escape while maintaining the distinctive Cycladic charm.
Overall Rating & Sentiment
The general consensus for Myconian Villa Collection is overwhelmingly positive, with guests frequently describing it as "exceptional," "beautiful," and a truly "luxurious" experience. Review scores often sit around 9.6 out of 10, reflecting a highly satisfying stay for most visitors.
Key Highlights
Guests particularly love the stunning, panoramic views of the Aegean Sea, the array of infinity pools (many private), and the immaculate cleanliness of the property. The resort's design, blending minimal Cycladic style with stylish interiors and handcrafted details, is a significant draw. Access to a private section of Elia Beach with complimentary sunbeds and umbrellas is another cherished amenity, along with a rejuvenation spa offering a variety of treatments and an indoor pool. The "amazing" and "friendly" staff are frequently highlighted as a standout feature.
Room Quality
The rooms and villas are designed with a luxurious, minimal Cycladic aesthetic, featuring stylish interiors, soft hues, and curated decor. Accommodations are spacious and offer unlimited sea views, often including private balconies or terraces. A significant number of villas and guestrooms boast their own private pools or outdoor hot tubs, enhancing the sense of exclusivity and privacy. Standard amenities include comfortable king-size beds (though some "double beds" may be two twins pushed together), air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, 3D flat-screen TVs, DVD/MP3 players, and luxurious bathrooms with rain showers, and in some cases, separate soaking bathtubs and Molton Brown toiletries.
Dining Experience
The dining experience at Myconian Villa Collection is generally highly regarded. Guests can start their day with a "great" and varied full American breakfast served buffet-style at Nouveau restaurant, often cited as one of the best many guests have experienced. For other meals, the resort offers the Infinity Pool Bar & Restaurant for exotic cocktails and light snacks, and the fine-dining Cabbanes restaurant, which serves Mediterranean and local dishes under a sea-view pergola. While the food quality is good, some guests have noted that restaurant dishes can be overpriced with small portions.
Service & Staff
The service and staff receive consistent praise, frequently described as "amazing," "friendly," "helpful," "warm," and "exceptional." Guests often highlight the attentiveness and genuine eagerness of the staff to fulfill wishes and ensure a special stay. The hotel manager, George, and the restaurant manager are specifically mentioned for their welcoming reception and efforts to perfect dining experiences.
Location & Accessibility
The Myconian Villa Collection enjoys a privileged and tranquil location on Elia Beach, offering easy access to the resort's private beach section, just a short walk away. However, its relative remoteness means it is about 12-30 kilometers (or a 12-30 minute drive) from Mykonos Town, which can be a "chore" for some guests. While the resort provides complimentary parking and a shuttle service to town, some guests have found the shuttle schedule to be infrequent or ending too early in the evening. This makes renting a car a common recommendation for those wishing to explore Mykonos Town more freely.
Value & Pricing
As a luxury Michelin Key Selected property, the Myconian Villa Collection is positioned at the higher end of Mykonos accommodations. The average price per room is around $629, which is notably higher than the Mykonos average of $452. Despite the premium pricing, many guests feel it offers "exceptional value" for the lavish experience, amenities, and unparalleled service provided. However, a few reviews explicitly state that the hotel is "VERY expensive."
Common Complaints
The most frequent criticism revolves around the resort's distance from Mykonos Town and the inadequate schedule of the complimentary shuttle service, which some guests find doesn't run late enough or often enough. Another recurring minor complaint concerns the restaurant pricing, with some finding dishes overpriced for the portion sizes. While rare, an isolated instance of "wifi issues" on the first night was mentioned, though it was promptly resolved by staff. Some guests also noted that "double beds are two twin beds tied together" which might not suit all preferences.
