We had a beautiful and very enjoyable stay at Villa Chara! The villa is stunning with lovely views, and was exactly as in the photos. The decor, bed, bedding etc are all lovely quality and very comfortable. We were pleased to realise it is relatively sheltered from windy days compared to other areas on the island, so even at the end of October we enjoyed warmth of the sun more than other more exposed areas might.
The communication from Ethos Greek Hospitality was excellent, from before our stay started right to the end. They are proactive and on hand to provide any extras and answer any questions over email before arriving, which was extremely helpful. We even had some groceries organised for delivery on arrival, as we were arriving in the evening with 2 kids in tow making a first supermarket shop tricky (tip: if you ask for groceries, specify quantities! We definitely didn't need 4 x packs of spaghetti for 1 week :)
We were greeted at the villa by Alex, and he was on-hand via message or phone throughout the week, answering any questions big and small, giving us tips and recommendations. It was extremely helpful and reassuring.
It's worth noting if you are holidaying with kids that the pool doesn't have a shallow end, and isn't heated. So it was *very* fresh in late October! We travelled with a 1 yr old and 6 yr old, so the baby didn't get any pool time this holiday as we felt it was too cold for her, but my 6 yr old, myself and the hubby all enjoyed a fresh dip daily and my son was more than happy and safe splashing with his arm bands.
It was end of season, which suited us as the chaos of summer crowds had gone, and beaches were calm and spacious. We had a wonderful day strolling around Mykonos town. We enjoyed a few hours at Ornos Beach just down the road with a delicious lunch at Kostantis. We explored Zorba beach just walking distance (though very steep!) from the villa. Absolutely tiny but at this time of year we had it completely to ourselves. Magic.
Overall a very special holiday for us and very pleased we chose Villa Chara. If we ever stay on Mykonos in future, I'd return to Ethos Greek Hospitality to organise it without question.
