Two Destinations, One Smooth Trip: A Perfect Mediterranean Match
A combined Cypriot-Greek vacation is a Mediterranean match made in heaven: a natural and easeful pairing that lets you
explore the very best of both worlds and histories while staying in idyllic properties that lift the experience beyond
the extraordinary.
Poised to book your Cypriot retreat to Almyra? Why not also reserve a stay on the nearby Greek island of Mykonos, where
you can be equally spoiled with the same level of exemplary Thanos Hotels service, savour effortless style that invites
soulful connection, and be perfectly based for colourful local immersions? Amyth of Mykonos, the Thanos property on the
iconic Greek island, has skilfully elevated quiet luxe resort living to an entirely new level, even on an island
renowned for its fantastic accommodation offerings.
Paphos to Mykonos: A Seamless Connection
Paphos, the home of Almyra, is just a 70-minute direct flight from Mykonos by plane, making a visit to both
destinations
a straightforward combination for a summer vacation to remember, whether travelling solo, as a couple, with friends or
family. Direct flights depart three times a week from May to October, allowing great flexibility in your itinerary.
Almyra: Cypriot Chic Meets World Class Design
Perhaps begin at Almyra, though you could just as easily head to Amyth of Mykonos first… At Almyra, you’ll completely
unwind from busy, fast-paced living. This cutting-edge design hotel will buoy you with its fun-loving spirit, breezy
chic rooms, al fresco feasts and other-worldly spa. Spend some time venturing afield, too, checking out some of the
many
attractions of Cyprus, sipping local wines matched with Cypriot cheeses, pressing glistening olives into oil, trekking
to the spot where Aphrodite met Adonis, and observing lace being crafted by industrious Cypriot hands. From Almyra, our
staff can then seamlessly handle your transfers to deliver you to an entirely new location waiting to offer its
profound
pleasures.
Magic of Mykonos
Part of the Cyclades islands —themselves a part of the Aegean Archipelago — Mykonos has long lured A-list celebrities
with its thrilling parties, proximity to amazing archaeological sites, whitewashed architecture, pretty windmills and
exceptional culinary produce. Amyth of Mykonos is stunningly positioned overlooking the sparkling waters of the bay of
Mykonos Town, itself just a 15-minute drive from the airport
In Mykonos Town, whitewashed pedestrian lanes — reputed to be so entangled as to confuse marauding pirates centuries
ago
— lead to picture-perfect churches and pots of lavender and oregano positioned on bright blue, red or green
windowsills.
Nearby, the enchanting quarter of Little Venice boasts old houses defiantly towering over the sea. Further afield,
windmills from ancient times have been preserved and add their own country charm; then there are dozens of stunning
beaches, ranging from pumping party-packed stretches of sand to completely secluded patches best suited to afternoon
siestas, all vying for attention.
The Allure of Amyth of Mykonos
Then there are all the pleasures contained within Amyth of Mykonos itself. It’s easy to while away an entire
day
without leaving — and many guests do just this, revelling in the rare intimacy of a 17-room property. The
sense of
place in this
Greek hideaway is strong, so you’ll never for a moment second guess where you are, from the minute you open your eyes
and spy the blues of the Aegean, to the last round of Ouzo in the evening at Amyth Kouzina, the hotel’s cosy
home-from-home style restaurant that features Cycladic heritage touches, and prioritises local Mykonos flavours on its
menu.
Take two
days
– or ideally take more: Amyth of Mykonos offers such a tempting array of exploratory activities that
you’ll be inclined towards the more. Think horse-riding across a landscape of herb-covered stony hills dotted with the
occasional pine or cypress tree; a tour of nearby Delos island, where ancient Greek ruins have been pristinely
preserved; or a private island-hopping cruise that ends with a bottle of Champagne being popped as the sun goes down on
another glorious Mykonos day.
