Firstly, the photos do not do this villa justice!! The villa not only has phenomenal views overlooking nammos village (a high end gem of Mykonos that features luxury shopping and dining and beach club experiences) but receives breathtaking sunrises for those inclined to wake up / stay up to see them.
ARRIVAL
Upon arrival in the port, my travel companions and I were greeted by transport service and taken to the villa. Prior to arriving at the villa, we were taken to a local market to stock up on food, drinks and water for our stay. We were then provided a tour of the property, the shared pool area and given detailed instructions for the premises.
VILLA DETAILS
The villa itself was well appointed with every convenience you could want. High ceilings made the space feel even more spacious. The kitchen was modern and provided all of the necessary supplies for meals and in home dining. The pool area was well kept, clean snd picturesque. The patio dining area is a great way to wind down for supper as the sunset shadows cascade behind the villa. Maid service is provided for longer stays to clean, replace towels and toiletries. The beds we extremely comfortable for sleeping. The bathrooms were super clean.
EXTRAS
I highly recommend reaching out to Sofianos with any questions prior to your visit. He was very responsive even with the time difference between Greece and NYC. Questions were answered super quickly and the quality of service from considering this Airbnb to staying there was top notch! During our stay, their transport manager (Panda) was our point of contact and was easily reachable via WhatsApp and very responsive as well. He provided great tips for restaurants and offered advice for which beaches and beach clubs to experience - which we found to be super helpful! He also coordinated massage therapists and chef meals for us - which only required 24hr notice.
GETTING AROUND
The villa is mounted on the top of the hill. So while walking to nearby restaurants and down to the nearby Nammos village/beach is possible, it may be difficult for some guests given the steepness of the hills. We opted for transportation services to get us to Old Town and other locations for this very reason. There is also an option to park a car/ motorcycle/ 4-wheeler on premise if you’d rather handle your own transportation.
Lastly, I can’t say enough positive things about our stay at Villa Thelgo and I highly recommend it.
