Mykonos Essence Hotel

The welcome we received on arrival was the best I've had. We were greeted at the door and booking in was smooth and simple. There was a detailed explanation of meal times and facilities and we were given a map of the island and shown the best places to go if we wanted to expore. We were shown to our room and it was lovely. The balcony had great views and the room was very clean. The bed was very comfortable and the aircon was unobtrusive and excellent. We slept extremely well! The bathroom was excellent with a great shower. The cleaners were lovely and worked very hard- the room was kept in a pristine state for the whole stay. Breakfast was ample with lots to choose from- the same every day but so wide ranging that you could vary what you had and keep it interesting. The pool was lovely and the area was spotless. Sunbeds were plentiful too. The entire staff of this hotel were pleasant and friendly and went out of their way to make your stay enjoyable.

The receptionist Labrini is the most welcoming lady that gives positive energy every day and will do what it takes to make your stay the best. All other staff are the same with a lovely smile and friendly conversation. The rooms are petite,but manageable,with lovely shower and fridge freezer. Cleaned beautifully everyday with fresh towels provided, without the need to ask. The breakfast variety could be improved for vegetarians as mostly the same every day. However I would revisit in a heartbeat. The pool area is gorgeous and views from the hotel magical. About 5 minutes away is the lovely Ornos beach which provides everything you will need. I can wait to come back again one day.

Where do I begin! We were greeted on arrival by the lovely lady Labrini, with open arms and a big genuine, welcoming smile and personality who is so so helpful and knowledgeable. The view from the hotel is incredible where you eat breakfast or have a few drinks and you can see the beautiful sunsets. The rooms are lovely even if they are a bit smaller it adds more of a personal apartment feel. The pool area is also gorgeous, nice size with a shallow and deep end too, not to mention having full exposure of the sun so you are guaranteed to have a beautiful tan! Another star of the show is Joanna! A smiley, genuine, lovely girl who is always happy to greet you as you come in to ask about your day or help you with anything you need. It’s lovely how the staff make you feel as one family together. The location is also incredible only being 5 mins walk (2 small but steep hills to go up and down) from Ornos beach which has plenty of beach clubs/chairs to choose from or if you go all the way to the end there is little room to just fit your towel down and just in the sea, the sea is also so clear and clean. Overall everything within this holiday from hotel, staff, location, has been 10/10 and i cannot wait to hopefully come back again! Thank you Essence! :)
