About this property
Seeing is believing when you vacation in the perfectly positioned, luxury Villa Paradisia, built on a rock overlooking the new harbour, on the exclusive Greek island of Mykonos, in the heart of the Azure Aegean Sea. Villa Paradisia lives up to its name, with uninterrupted, sweeping sea views, and a two-minute drive to the nearest soft, sandy beach. The property consists of a main house, and an independent guest house, with a total of six ensuite double bedrooms, which can comfortably accommodate up to twelve guests. The villa would make an ideal extended family holiday, or perfect for a friend’s get-together for some fun in the sun. This unique architect-designed property is set in its own five thousand metre squared grounds, enclosing extensive terraces, indigenous shrub gardens, and your own private infinity swimming pool. Villa Paradisia comes complete with complimentary air conditioning and Wi-Fi throughout, a gym, a wine room, an outdoor home cinema, and private parking for three cars.
The subterranean style villa is built over one storey, and constructed out of classic Mediterranean whitewashed walls, with floor-to-ceiling sliding doors, that flood the rooms with natural light, and let in cooling sea breezes. The interiors are cool and contemporary, elegant and exquisite, with inner stone walls, lots of natural wood, and modern minimalist furnishings, and decorated in a calming colour palette of crisp, clean whites, with subtle shades of grey highlights. When you stay at Villa Paradisia you have access to a twenty-four-hour guest relations service, a maid comes in daily to clean, a butler is on duty from 8 am until 6 pm, and you get served a breakfast of your choice, now that’s what we call luxurious living!
Enter the main house, where there is a panoramic sea view seating area, furnished with a white corner sofa and flat-screen satellite television, and picture windows which slide open onto the pool terrace. The handcrafted wood table and chairs dining set would be ideal for some seriously impressive indoor entertaining. The dove grey and stainless steel stylish kitchen is fully equipped with all the latest appliances that you will need to cater for your holiday, including an adjacent walk-in, ambient wine room, well stocked with the finest vintages. The sea view master bedroom sits to one side of the property, complete with a huge double bed, separate dressing room, an ensuite bathroom, and its own private terrace fitted out with inviting fat-cushioned fashionable sun loungers. On the other side of the living space is three further beautifully appointed double bedrooms, all with ensuite bathrooms, and a shared sea view furnished terrace. Sandwiched between the bedrooms is a state-of-the-art gym, equipped with free weights, the most up-to-date exercise machines, and a WC. The separate studio-style, guest house has a spacious living area with a small kitchenette, and two ensuite double bedrooms, just right for a small family or teenagers.
Step out onto the breathtaking sea view terrace, where you will find a wow factor, centrepiece, step-entry, twenty metres long, infinity swimming pool, which snakes the length of the property. Deep and squidgy, fat-cushioned sun loungers are perfectly positioned to maximise those mesmerising views and catch those summer rays. White cushioned shaded soft seating spots are ideal for morning coffee catch-ups and cocktails at sunset. Take your seat at the alfresco dining set, and enjoy supper freshly grilled on the barbeque. End the evening watching your favourite stars under the twinkling stars, in the purpose-built home cinema, complete with a movie projector.
Villa Paradisia can be found built on a rock in the amphitheatre hillside of Tourlos, commanding stunning views over the new harbour, on the jet-set island of magical Mykonos, one of the Greek Cycladic 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 a twelve-minute drive from Mykonos Airport, which is served by both local and international flight operators. If you are island hopping, then the nearby islands of Naxos and Syros also have their own airports.
The fabulously cosmopolitan village Tourlos is on the North West side of the island, with celebrity-spotting seafront bars and traditional tavernas, and local mini-marts to cater for all your holiday. The coastline is populated with many beautiful golden sandy beaches, take your pick from nearby Tourlos to the family-friendly favourite of Agios Stephanos, or party, party, party all day long on hedonistic Paradise Beach, with its crystal clear waters, restaurants, bars, and clubs with resident DJs. During daylight hours seek solace in one of the eight hundred churches that are scattered across the island, most notably Paraportiani, which is a unique construction combining four styles of architecture, or nearby the church of St George Spilinnos, cleverly built into the cavity of the rocks.
Take a visit to Mykono's old town, known locally as Chora, and only five minutes from the villa. Wander the maze of streets with its colourful Cycladic houses, do some serious designer shopping in one of the many luxury label boutiques, and then take a table at a seafront restaurant. Discover the island’s history at the Archaeological, Folk, and Maritime Museums, before going out of town to Lena’s House, to learn how the islanders lived. Walk up to the iconic windmills, or as they are known locally, Kato Mili, where once the wheat was ground to make bread, and is now a mini museum and residencies. Stroll along the waterfront to Little Venice, where the original colourful merchant houses overhang the sea, and is now home to stylish cafes, bars, restaurants, and art galleries. Admire the Armenistis lighthouse, still fully functioning and an essential asset of Mykonos’ maritime history.
Charter your own yacht complete with captain, and spend the day sunbathing, swimming, and snorkelling, discovering secret coves and hidden bays. For the romantics, nothing beats a sunset cruise, cocktail in hand, as the sun sets over the horizon. Enjoy a trip to the adjacent island of Tinos, visit the landmark Renaissance-style Church of Panagia Evangelistria, tilt at windmills, visit the fifty villages, walk the ancient fortifications, and coo at the famous dovecotes. Further afield the uninhabited island of Delos is well worth a visit, a unesco World Heritage Site, and home to the birthplace of Zeus and Leto. Venture further afield and island hop from the nearby port of Mykonos, where the Aegean Sea is your oyster.
