About this property
Located on the hillside of Agios Lazaros, Villa Soso offers panoramic views of the azure sea. It features eight ensuite bedrooms arranged over five levels, comfortably accommodating up to fifteen guests, making it suitable for large family gatherings or groups of friends.
Designed with classic Cycladic architecture, the villa is constructed from traditional white-washed stone with timbered ceilings. Some bathrooms are built into the rocky cliffside. Villa Soso includes private parking spaces, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and flat-screen televisions in the sitting room and each bedroom. The interiors reflect the Cycladic style with curved staircases, arched rooms, contemporary furnishings, and a neutral colour palette of whites, greys, beiges, and ochres. Original art and a mix of traditional and modern artefacts decorate the villa. Floor-to-ceiling windows with white curtains allow natural light and sea breezes, providing stunning sea views.
The villa's 650 square meters of living space offers open-plan living areas. The adjacent dining area is suitable for indoor entertaining, and the fully equipped kitchen includes modern appliances such as an oven, microwave, hob, dishwasher, and fridge freezer. A guest cloakroom completes this floor.
The upper level features a master bedroom with a king-size bed, walk-in closet, study area, ensuite bathroom, and a balcony with sea views. The middle level includes two bedrooms, one with a queen-size bed and the other a single room, both with independent entrances, ensuite bathrooms, and sea-view terraces. The Jacuzzi level has four double bedrooms with king or queen-size beds, ensuite bathrooms, and access to a sea view terrace. The ground level hosts the eighth bedroom, with an independent entrance, queen-size bed, ensuite shower room, and sea view terrace.
The tiered terrace offers a space for relaxation, with an infinity swimming pool, sun loungers, and a shaded seating area under a pergola. The lower terrace features an eight-seater Jacuzzi with sea views. Guests can enjoy alfresco dining at the pool-level dining table while enjoying the sunset.
Villa Soso is located on the southwest coast of fashionable Mykonos, part of the Cyclades islands in the heart of the Aegean Sea. The exclusive island of Mykonos measures only ten kilometres long by fifteen kilometres wide, so wherever you want to go it’s only a short drive away.
The villa is just four kilometres from Mykonos airport, which is served by both local and international flight operators. If you are island hopping, then nearby Naxos and Syros also have their own airports. The new port of Mykonos is a hub of activity for those landing and departing from island hopping ferries, or super yachts cruising the Aegean, and is a quick twenty minute drive to the villa. The villa is situated on a promontory of rocks in fashionable Agios Lazaros, overlooking the Gulf of Ornos, and the islands of Delos and Renia.
The village of Ornos is to the north, with two beaches, and streets lined with traditional tavernas and a harbour with boats that can take you to local beaches and nearby Delos. Villa Soso is near the village of Psarou, with a white sandy beach, and local shops for your holiday provisions. Nearby is Korfos for kitesurfing, and the fabulous uber trendy Buddha Beach Bar for some serious fun in the sun. Treat yourself to a luxury treatment at Santa Maria’s Ginkgo Spa. To the south is Elia and Agrari beaches, offering a selection of water sports, a children’s playground, and cafes and bars, and calmer sea waters than those in the north. The coastline is populated by many beautiful golden sandy beaches, take your pick from nearby nudist Elia beach, to the family-friendly favourite of Plays Gialos Beach, or party, party, party all day long on Super Paradise Beach, with its crystal clear waters, restaurants, bars, and clubs with resident DJs, there’s something for everyone on the island of Mykonos.
During daylight hours play penance in one of the eight hundred churches that populate the island, most notably Paraportiani, which is a unique construction combining four styles of architecture. Take a visit to Mykonos town, known locally as Chora, and only four kilometres from the villa. Here you can wander the maze of streets with the colourful Cycladic houses, do some serious designer-label shopping in one of the many luxury boutiques. Take a table at a seafront restaurant and enjoy a dish of freshly caught seafood, whilst sipping ouzo and watching the beautiful people pass by. Find out the island’s history and culture at the Archaeological Museum, the Folk Museum, and the Maritime Museum, then go out of town to Lena’s House to discover how the islanders lived. Take a walk up to the landmark windmills, known as Kato Mili, where once the wheat was ground to make bread and is now a mini museum and residencies. Walk along the waterfront to Little Venice, where original merchant houses overhang the sea, and is now home to cafes, bars, restaurants, and galleries, best enjoyed at sunset with a retsina or two. Admire the Armenistis lighthouse, still fully functioning and an essential asset of Mykonos’ maritime history.
No visit to Mykonos is complete without a day at sea, join a catamaran jolly and snorkel in the sea, or if you’re feeling flush, charter your own yacht and discover secret coves and hidden bays and beaches. For the romantics, nothing beats a sunset cruise, cocktail in hand as the sun sets over the horizon. Further afield the uninhabited island of Delos is well worth a visit, a unesco World Heritage Site, home to the birthplace of Zeus and Leto, go with a group or arrange your own private tour.
