This boutique hotel in Mykonos is getting a chic new look for summer

Sunset view overlooking Mykonos from the Kouros Hotel

A luxury boutique hotel overlooking Mykonos Town aims to tempt UK travellers with a range of new offerings this summer. From May 10, the highly rated Kouros Hotel & Suites will open a new signature restaurant and bar, pool and nine new suites and villas. The perfect excuse for a return visit, or first time vacation, we think.

A collaboration with French designer and architect Fabienne Spahn, Kouros is a complex of whitewashed, stone-built buildings, located ‘minutes away’ from the whitewashed architecture of Mykonos town. 

The waterfront property offers 40 modern, spacious rooms and suites, with unobstructed sea views of the town, sea and iconic sunset. 

Inspired by the creations of French designer Fabienne Spahn, Kouros is a complex of whitewashed, stone-built buildings…

New for this season, the hotel is bringing nine suites and villas with boho design and modern amenities, along with an all-new restaurant and bar area.

Amenities include the Zoe spa featuring organic brand Kos-Paris, complete with hydrotherapy area with built-in Jacuzzi and hammam.  

And if you’re looking for something a little extra, Kouros prides itself on offering bespoke and tailored services to all guests including private yacht hire, helicopter, or private jet and other VIP experiences.

Tempted? We certainly are! You can book your stay at the Kouros hotel here.
