4 Nights at Myconian Ambassador and Spa

Sitting high on a slope above Mykonos’s famed Platis Gialos beach, the Ambassador’s chic setting gives the feel of an intimate hilltop hamlet…except for those low-rise,whitewashed buildings. Those are unabashedly Grecian…

Its pristine spaces have a kind of sophisticated look few hotels in the Cyclades can match, but that’s not all you’ll love about the Ambassador. Yes, the light-filled rooms with lots of marble, contemporary furniture and bright-white geometric colour schemes provide just the pick-me-up you need after a day following the coastal paths of the island to its celebrated beach clubs, but what you’ll remember most of this resort is its setting, surrounded by gardens, and just a short stroll up from the largest- and finest- beach on Mykonos. Watersports, lingering over a smoothie at a beachside cafe or mingling with the island’s beau monde on one of the many superyachts anchored here….the choice is yours. Then, of course, there is the sun-drenched pool area, perfect for those afternoons when all you want is a continuous supply of perfectly mixed cocktails with sublime sea views. As holiday destinations go, the Ambassador has to be one of the most charming resorts you can check yourself into this side of Greece.
