Mykonos Lolita, a Resort to Live

The property as a whole may be lovely, but this particular condo was unacceptable. We rarely write reviews but... We arrived late at night and found that no basic necessities were provided, including bottled drinking water. (On Mykonos, you cannot drink directly from the faucet because of the island’s water-treatment and purification process.) Arriving late and having no water provided in the middle of summer was extremely inconvenient, especially with no nearby store. We were also told that toilet paper could not be flushed and that we could be charged $300 if flushing caused a plumbing problem. This unsanitary and unreasonable condition should have been clearly disclosed before booking. When we requested additional toilet paper, the “manager” said it would be delivered the following day, yet we saw her relaxing on the beach that same day. The lack of urgency and basic hospitality was astonishing. Taking a shower was another ordeal. To get hot water, we had to find a hidden switch in the living room, turn it on, and wait at least five minutes to bathe. The showers were roughly two feet by two feet, and only three small bath towels were provided for our entire stay. When asked for additional towels for the beach/pool, we were told by “management” that beach towels were not included and cost €8 each to rent. These limitations should have been disclosed in advance. The condo was in terrible condition and did not resemble a properly maintained vacation rental.

very beautiful property and hospitality of the staff made the stay even better!

We liked the scenery and the setting was beautiful. The problem was related more to cost and food choices. Because it cost 50 euros each way to go to town, we were generally stuck at the hotel and its limited offerings. The hotel had a shuttle which made only one trip to town a day at inconvenient hours. The wine at the restaurant was outrageously priced at 140 euros for local wine. The only other option for better priced wine was the prosecco at 55 euros. We were not allowed to bring own wine to the restaurant. It seemed everyone had their hands out for extras except the cleaning staff. Although we tipped everyone, we were told at check-put to tip more in cash beyond what we already tipped. Even the transfer driver wanted an extra 40 euros cash on top of the already 50 euros paid at the hotel because he had to wait an extra 1/2 hour even though we gave advanced notice of a change in time for pick-up. We are sorry about this review since you a lovely hotel and the greeting we received when arrived was exceptionally good. However, you need to provide people with more flexible options with reasonably priced wine and transfer/taxi prices or a more accommodating shuttle service.

Resort was pleasant. Restaurant closed early. Often ran out of wine and sparkling water. Not well stocked Taxis very expensive. No walkability.

Staff is very friendly and accommodating. The accommodations were beautiful and we loved our room with an incredible view. Secret beach was heavenly and 3 min walk from hotel
