Located apart from the noisy party scene and bustling beaches that make Mykonos a world-renowned destination, Carmel is a stunning villa in the Elia area, sitting gracefully on its own landscaped grounds just a short drive away from Elia Beach.
If you are dreaming of a laid-back vacation under the Greek sun with your friends and family, this 5-bedroom luxury Mykonos villa is the ideal sanctuary for relishing privacy and unparalleled sea views.
Surrounded by lush gardens and tropical palm trees, Carmel’s impressive terrace offers plenty of relaxing spots. The infinity pool, which enjoys spectacular views across the azure sea to Naxos and Paros islands, will catch your eye from the moment you step outside. Here, you can spend long afternoons on the poolside sunbeds letting the sea breeze do its work, then move to the shaded alfresco table for a light meal prepared on the barbecue. The setting feels easy and self-contained, so there’s no rush to leave the villa if you don’t feel like it.
Step inside to find the more stylish side of Carmel, set against a backdrop of soft greys and polished concrete. Contemporary furnishings keep the spaces comfortable and relaxed, while natural light warms the living room throughout the day. Elegantly split into two floors, Carmel is set up to make 11 guests feel at home, within 5 king and queen size bedrooms. Thoughtful touches include a Sonos sound system in the living room, so you can stream your own music, and a home cinema for evenings when you prefer a quiet movie rather than going out.
One of Carmel’s strengths is its position. You’re close to Elia, one of the island’s fully serviced beaches, but the villa itself sits in a quieter pocket, so you can decide day by day how social you want to be. A short drive takes you to Ano Mera for simple meals and everyday errands, or to Mykonos Town when you feel like a more cosmopolitan evening. Overall, the villa gives you the option to experience the livelier side of Mykonos while always having a peaceful place to come back to.
