Cycladic Sky

Cycladic Sky: Mykonos

Perched on the coast of Mykonos, there’s nothing to disrupt that view of the sparkling Aegean Sea from the terrace of this deluxe villa. The infinity-edge pool seems to blend into the sea, and there’s nothing better than laying on the double day bed in the middle of the pool, surrounded on all sides by water, and soaking up the sunshine. There are myriad sea-view spots for alfresco dining, outdoor lounges, sunken sofas, a fire pit and even a hot tub up on the first-floor balcony.

That glorious sea view continues inside as you unwind on the pebble-grey sofas in front of a wall of glass. Even cooking the evening meal in the huge kitchen is a delight with an Aegean view from floor-to-ceiling windows. The biggest bedrooms come with their own seating area, like luxurious hotel suites, and nearly every room opens up to a terrace or balcony. Macrame, straw and ink-black touches throughout give off that boho-zen feel that fits particularly well with a beach-side location.
