Arocaria Mykonos

My husband and I have just arrived back from our holiday at the Arocaria, Mykonos. From the moment we arrived we were cared for by the amazing team they have. Everyone is so happy and with so few guests and so many staff, you are waited on with real care and attention. One factor I really appreciated was the help and advice given from the staff over places to eat, visit and general advice for the island. As you would expect at this price point, extra services are available and really useful. The hotel is happy to book taxis for you and help in anyway they can in your day to day. It’s also worth noting the breakfast is really good. There is a wide selection on the menu and I think it would cater to all tastes. The accommodation itself is brilliant. Sunbeds are super comfortable and never in large demand so you will always get a space. The rooms are large, beds and bedding are very soft and a good sleep is guaranteed. I have read previous reviews noting the steep hill you have to climb in order to reach the hotel and while it really didn’t bother us, it is a climb! However although it’s very steep, it isn’t that long. It’s a 10-20 minute walk into Mykonos town but far enough away you can escape the lively nighttime. Overall I would say if you are considering this hotel, just go ahead and do it. There isn’t really much competition at this price point and considering its location.

A beautiful hotel that looked and felt like a private, high-end, property with $1,000/night rooms without the high-end price tag. We paid around $300/night. An incredible steal! We stayed here for my 40th birthday and it was incredible. We were offered a welcome drink as we arrived - homemade Greek lemonade. When we got to the room, my husband had arranged a little birthday surprise with the staff. I received a huge, beautiful bundle of flowers, an amazing plate of wide-variety sliced fruit, a chilled bottle of sparkling wine, and a bottle of merlot. We immediately celebrated and lounged out at our own little private pool. It was such an amazing first impression. I loved the aesthetic of the room - clean, modern, and chic. You will love the towels. They are super thick and huge. Bath products smelled really nice too. The cabinets had so many shelves and nooks for you to store your clothes. We got room 101, the junior suite with private pool. It was right next door to the reception area. This room looked out to a view of someone’s property, but it wasn’t bad as it was the side of the house with no windows and the owners were never really outside. Our private pool area did give us a partial view of the Aegean Sea and the port where all the cruise ships and ferries come in. The pool itself is not heated. It was our first time in Mykonos and thought everywhere in Greece is hot during the summer and it isn’t necessary to have the pool heated…thinking it was going to be refreshing. We stayed for 3 days on July 6. Well little did we know, because of how windy the island is, a cold pool isn’t much fun. Lol We ended up getting used to the water but it was definitely cold going in. The service is amazing. They all had warm, friendly smiles and treated us very well. It made us feel welcomed, relaxed, and pampered. They also took care of our transfers from the ferry port in Tourlos and our scooter rental. We came in on a Sea Jet from Piraeus, Athens and the property is a 5-min car ride from port. You can take a taxi but it’s a 20 euro minimum charge one way to go anywhere on the island, even if you’re only going a mile up the road. Our transfer was 15 euros per person each way and it beats having to fight for a taxi. We did get a taxi back to port when we checked out and our hotel handled it all for us. The breakfast was excellent and came out tapas-style, fast, and fresh. There was a lot of variety to choose from! Everyday, we got to choose something different and everything was delicious! The best breakfast during our stay in Greece. Every day, they brought us a little Greek treat to our room…it had a marshmallow taste to it with nuts. It was delish! The property is also a short 2-min walk to Zuma (although it’s very steep and you’ll have to take off any heels you’re wearing). We walked over for sunset drinks at 7pm and had no problems without a reservation. I’m sure it helps to dress to impress and look the part. Tip: I’ll give this property 5 s

Arocaria is the best hotel that I have stayed in my life. Not only because of the premises which are nice, but for the treatment that we experienced. The whole staff in the hotel, including Vasso (I don’t know if that is the correct spelling) is very nice, helpful and they make your feel very welcome. They will go the extra mile to help you and always with a smile in their faces. We got great recommendations to places to go and things to do. The breakfast, which was included, is good, plentiful and have a good variety in the menu to choose from. We had some drinks at the pool and the bartender prepared some special delicious drinks for us that were not included in the menu. We also had dinner one night and as usual it was good. Our room was big with a small living room separated from the bedroom and two patios with a perfect bay view of the sunset. What else can you ask for in Mykonos? I highly recommend this place.

An amazing hotel, just a short walk from the centre of Mykonos. The staff could not be more helpful and friendly. We had a lovely, chilled time and would definitely recommend it. Our room was awesome and kept very clean and tidy. We had a couple of spa treatments, too, which were amazing.

Just spent 6 nights in peak season in Mykonos, with all the crowd all you need is a place to relax. Arocaria Mykonos is the perfect place for that. The hotel has 16 suites, making it a very intimate and relaxing hotel. Rooms are very big for Mykonos standards and the choice of furniture is modern and simple. Big showers, amazing beds and balconies or terraces with breathtaking views. About half of the rooms come with a private pool to make the stay even more intimate. The most important of all is the staff, kind, attentive to needs and preferences and doing everything to make you feel like home. Unforgettable experience just 20min walk away from the old town. Only downside is the airplane noises but once in Mykonos you quickly realize this is the case all over the island due to the location of the airport.

Arocaria is newly built and recently opened beautiful boutique hotel facing the Mediterranean Sea and the new port of Mykonos. Its rooms are pristine well appointed and very spacious. The best part of the hotel is its small size; there are only few rooms and the pool has all day sun and it has uninterrupted views of the sea! The staff is very attentive, professional and friendly. Breakfast is exceptional. We had a wonderful week here and would love to come back again soon. A lovely place to stay and relax

This hotel was brand new and, as such, was pristine. They were still putting on some finishing touches as one would expect but the staff was very attentive, the rooms were very spacious, and the breakfast was great. I can see this place as only getting better. Location wise, they are very close to the port and an easy drive to town.

I can’t rat3 this hotel high enough, it’s amazing and one of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed at (if not, the best)! Where shall I start… staff were fantastic, and are a huge asset to the hotel. So friendly and helpful, nothing is a problem! We had a room with a pool which was beautiful, spotlessly clean, comfy beds, and a free bottle of wine and fruit on arrival. The main pool was lovely, with comfy loungers. Breakfast was great quality and lots of choice, food in the restaurant was also great Location wise it’s a 20 min walk to the centre of town, quite hilly but not a problem for us. If you stay in Mykonos I can’t see any hotel beating the standard of arocaria!

Great location, beautiful surrounding atmosphere, great staff. Most friendly and helpful receptionist and staff ever & Everything about the hotel was exceptional, was clean, stylish. Food was good and great value for money and service was attentive and efficient. I was very pleased with my stay.
