Ftelia Sun occupies a glorious position on the headland to the bay, looking out over its sparkling blue waters and offering an idyllic Mykonos retreat. There is direct access, via steps, to the beach from its lower terrace.

Ftelia Bay has a broad sweep of golden sand blessed with clear waters just a short drive from Mykonos Town. Despite the ease of access to the Chora, it is one of the island’s most uncrowded beaches, although it boasts two famous beach clubs. Located in Ftelia Bay, you are equal distance to Mykonos Town and the best beaches of the Southern coast – Elia, Lia, Kalafatis & Agrari.

On the lower terrace, the sparkling infinity pool offers a breath-taking vista of Ftelia’s turquoise waters. Relax poolside on one of the sun-drenched loungers and you may mistake this quiet spot for a private haven.

On the terrace above, the cool white cubes of Ftelia Sun reflect the traditional Mykonos design. This terrace boasts a fabulous entertaining space, with outdoor sound system, under the cool shade of a bamboo-clad pergola. Relaxed lounge seating for ten, a summer kitchen and al fresco dining space are perfectly positioned for soaking up the incredible views across Ftelia bay.

On this lower level of the property, there are further entertaining spaces: a cosy interior dining space, seating six; a bright, airy kitchen, all in white; and casual sofa seating overlooking the sparkling Aegean. Neutral shades of white, grey and taupe predominate.

So, too, in the bedrooms, each of which has a smart en-suite and an equally impressive view of sparkling sea. Four are doubles and the fifth is a twin, so you can accommodate up to ten people here in total comfort.

There is an additional staff room with bunk beds on the lower level (extra cost).

If you’re looking for an idyllic beachside retreat, Ftelia Sun could well be your best option on the island.
