Mykonos with Kids: The Best Family Villas

Mykonos has a reputation as a party island, but it is a lovely place for a family holiday too, as long as you pick the right base. What families really need is a safe pool, room to spread out, a proper kitchen and an easy beach nearby. These Restoni villas tick those boxes.

Room to spread out

Villa Irilia at Faros Armenistis sleeps ten around an infinity-style pool, with panoramic views and plenty of space for kids and grandparents alike. Villa Alta Mare high above Leno has a resort-sized pool that keeps children happy for hours, and enough terrace for the adults to relax while they splash.

For a big or multi-generational family, Aloria Mansion is the easy answer: nine bedrooms, a huge central pool and quiet grounds in Choulakia. And if you want everyone close but with their own front door, Lucevista Mykonos Villas lets you book one villa or the whole trio, so cousins and grandparents can have their own space and still share the days.

Close to easy beaches

Villa Anasa sits minutes from Panormos, one of the island's calmer, easier swimming beaches, and adds a jacuzzi to the pool. Villa Paschalia at Agios Ioannis pairs a pool with those famous Delos sunsets, a nice way to end a long beach day.

Making it easy with little ones

• Ask us for a crib or high chair. We can usually arrange them.
• Daily housekeeping takes the load off, so the holiday actually feels like one.
• A private chef for a couple of nights means no restaurant with tired kids.
• Book direct for the best rate and a local team on hand if you need anything.

Tell us your children's ages and what you are looking for, and we will point you to the family villa that fits.
