Style

Small-scale Cycladic siren

Setting

Seductive south Mykonos

A bijou boutique bolthole that feels far removed from the island’s bacchanalian party culture, Numo Mykonos offers hedonism of a different stripe. Curvaceous Cycladic architecture, set on its namesake’s southeast coast, comes with an outdoor pool, nostalgic nods to 1960s design, and tall, feathery grasses that dance and sway on balmy Aegean zephyrs.

Our favourite rooms

Minimalist decor laced with subtle Sixties nostalgia runs across rooms and suites at Numo Mykonos. Pick the Evergreen Deluxe Sea View with Private Pool for your dips a casa coupled with swoonsome Aegean panoramas, or go one better in a ground-floor Absolute suite that includes all of the above and nearly double the space.

Poolside

Sunloungers with rattan parasols flank the outdoor pool (open 10am–6.30pm daily), where sweeping bay views and a cocktail bar encourage lingering.

Spa

Full-body massages, reflexology treatments and facials using organic Omorovicza and Olive Era products are available at the hotel’s petite Etherea Boutique Spa.

Packing tips

Legend has it that the enormous otherworldly boulders found littered across Mykonos are the petrified corpses of giants slain by Heracles. Bone up on the Gigantomachy and other Greek myths and legends with audiobook retellings by scholars such as Robert Graves or Stephen Fry. And don’t stint on cooling gel eye masks if you plan to party like Bacchus.

Also

To keep your workout regime on track, there are treadmills, free weights, elliptical trainers and other cardio kit at the Ensoma fitness centre, on site. Yoga classes and personal fitness trainers can also be arranged.

Children

There are no specific facilities for little Smiths at Numo Mykonos, but children are permitted in the pool and One-Bedroom and Absolute suites sleep up to four.

Sustainability efforts

Numo Mykonos is a refreshingly small-scale proposition compared with the party resorts in the west of the island. The focus here is on intimate spaces, inclusivity and sustainability. There’s solar energy, water-saving initiatives, heat pumps and a comprehensive recycling programme. In addition, almost all of the produce used in the restaurant is sourced from on and around the island, with à la carte (rather than buffet) menus and careful planning to minimise food waste. Islanders account for the majority of hotel staff, and employees are well looked-after with three free meals a day, morning gym classes and other mindful activities such as sound therapy.

Top Table

Poolside spots deliver uninterrupted sea views.

Dress Code

Casual. Loose linens and billowing cottons are your allies for alfresco dining on still summer days, but consider trousers to avoid involuntary Marilyn Monroe moments when the Meltemi breezes blow through.

Hotel restaurant

Playfully wonky rattan lamp shades dance above a curvaceous mid-century console table and candy-stripe banquettes at Anemoessa, where modern Mediterranean and Mykonian dishes showcase the island’s freshest seasonal flavours. The restaurant is open all day, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, all à la carte.

Hotel bar

Mykonian elegance made manifest, poolside Màre Màre promises widescreen Aegean views, an upbeat playlist, and an enticing menu of locally inspired cocktails.

Greece

Set on the southeast coast of its Greek island namesake, Numo Mykonos is an intimate Cyclades siren that’s just 10 minutes from popular Kalafati Beach, but feels far from the island’s hedonistic hotspots.

Planes

Mykonos International Airport is 20 minutes away by road; transfers can be arranged at a cost of €50 each way.

Automobiles

Mykonos — a relatively compact island that’s sprinkled with sugarcube houses, romantic windmills, time-worn hilltop monasteries and traditional Greek tavernas — is tailor-made for exploring by car. You can rent from all the usual suspects at the airport and there’s free parking at the hotel.

Worth getting out of bed for

The beauty of Mykonos’ many beaches could move even the most stoic Greek god or goddess to tears of joy. The closest of these Cycladic stunners is Kalafatis Beach, a 10-minute walk from Numo Mykonos, where typical summer breezes whip up wonderful windsurfing conditions. A little further around the coast, the more sheltered bays at Agia Anna and Paraga are better for swimming, with relatively calm clear waters.
You’ll notice a theme developing at Kato Mili, an understandably popular beauty spot overlooking the Aegean just south of Mykonos Town, where whitewashed windmills — some dating back to the 16th century — are now the money shot for your socials. Meanwhile, the capital’s labyrinthine lanes froth and fizz with hot-pink bougainvillea: take a wander to discover tiny cloud-white churches, independent gift shops and galleries, and to seek out a scenic waterfront lunch spot in Little Venice.

Local restaurants

Kalafatis Beach has a clutch of waterfront dining options. Chief among these are L’Aragosta and its near-neighbour Yiammas Mykonos, both serving up fine Aegean views alongside stellar menus that let the local seafood sing: expect freshly shucked oysters, shrimp carpaccio and chargrilled baby octopus. Pick Yiammas for trad-Mykonian plates and lively Greek music, and L’Aragosta for Italian seafood specialties and wood-fired pizza. Best of all, both are within stumbling distance of Numo Mykonos.

Local bars

Mykonos Town is the nucleus for island nightlife and glitzy cocktail joints. The Townhouse Hotel sets a high bar with Sky Bar, a rooftop rendezvous with in-crowd promise, as well as 54 Cocktail Lounge, which serves up classic libations and live music on its sea-view terrace. Mosey over to the Terrace at Scorpios, where the boho beach spirit is enlivened by resident DJs three nights a week. Or try Little Venice hangout Scarpa for superlative sunset windmill views.

Anonymous review

Every hotel featured is visited personally by members of our team, given the Smith seal of approval, and then anonymously reviewed. As soon as our reviewers have returned from this diminutive boutique resort in Mykonos and shaken the sand from their shoes (and stash of earthy louza sausage — aka Aegean prosciutto — from their suitcase), a full account of their boho beach break will be with you. In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside Numo Mykonos…

Dazzling powder-white churches, cornflower-blue cupolas, and seafood so fresh you’d swear it just winked at you… Mykonos gives its Cycladic sibling Santorini a real run for its money (and more bang for your buck). 

Built in a traditional Greek village style, Numo Mykonos’ Santorini-esque trappings — spa, sea-view restaurant, suites with private pools — combine to cast a siren’s spell here on the island’s relatively sleepy southeast coast. And, although you’d be forgiven for thinking the resort’s whitewashed buildings and natural-stone terraces have been clinging to these sun-drenched slopes for centuries, the rooms here are anything but old-school, with thoughtfully curated minimalist interiors, butter-stripe textiles and subtle, abstract artworks.

Away from the resort’s intimate embrace, lean into lo-fi days at nearby Kalafitis Beach. Made popular by surfers, Kalafitis is a welcome Aegean cliché of broad, golden sands lapped by aquamarine shallows and bordered by seafood restaurants and bars. And when you want to dip into island nightlife, Mykonos Town is just a 20-minute drive away.
