My friends and I recently spent 4 days at Villa Annita in Mykonos and words will never justify the magic we experienced over the 4 days we spent there. The minute you walk through the gates of this haven above the cliffs overlooking the deep blue Aegean Sea, you can sense the history, the love and laughter that has been shared in this home throughout the years. It’s as if the walls could speak and tell share all the memorable stories of the vacationers before us. Meticulously maintained and charmingly decorated, this 2 story mini palace spares no comfort. There is plenty of room to make everyone feel right at home and the outdoor areas are an absolute dream. There are so many places to lounge and relax, that one can easily drift into a dream and wake up wondering why it took you so long to get to this paradise. Mykonos itself is a bustling island with endless attractions, nightlife and dinning, but we found ourselves often drawn into the mysterious comforts of this home and relishing every opportunity to relax and unwind, every chance to float in the pool, every breeze, every sunrise and every sunset. Our host was great and their personal driver Elias was enormously gracious. Even though he spoke very little English, this did not matter. We found that communication is best done with smiles, hugs and laughter in Mykonos. Elias was at our beckon call throughout the entire trip for whatever we needed, a driver, a tour guide, a maintenance man, you name it. But most importantly Elias’ contagious humility and kindness gave you a sense of nostalgia of what it’s like to be born and live in a paradise such a Mykonos. A sense of happiness and peace that stay with you lone after you depart. I recommend their villa and hope to come back ASAP.
