Originally a beautiful family home before evolving into the famous boutique hotel it is today, the Kivotos club hotel is set on the edge of the bay in the pretty little village of Ornos on Mykonos island and when you walk the grounds there, it's easy to see why the spot was chosen for an exclusive family getaway. The beauty of the Aegean is all around you as the hotel leads directly to the water's edge on its own private beach.

Exploration of your suite and the rest of the hotel reveal more about of the Kivotos hotel character. Everywhere you go there are interesting objects d'art and many pieces of modern art, all plucked from the owners private collection or selected by themselves for inclusion, giving the hotel such an air of elegance, you can't help but feel elegant oneself. Further insight into the ambience at Kivotos is to understand the meaning of the word itself. The closest translation into English would be 'ark' as in Noah's, which at first may not seem significant, but when we examine the word in a figurative sense, we discover it means a protective sanctuary – a phrase which really embodies the feel of this very special hotel.
5 star hotels in Mykonos insider look from the Greek-advisor.com
There are 39 rooms and suites at Kivotos club hotel, each with its own look and theme. The exteriors are the traditional whitewashed buildings, but inside is far less predictable. Combining the contemporary and modern is difficult and often ends up being a confused mess, however the talent and patient design put into each room here highlights just how amazing it can look when done properly. Trinkets beg for examination and unique, locally made furniture continues the nowhere-else-on-Earth feel and intricate frosted glass doors hide stunning bathrooms, while the giant, luxurious four-poster beds will soon have you convinced you've been mistaken for Royalty. One of the many Suites has a beautiful freeform private pool which flows partially under your own white, wooden slated sun deck, while others boast Jacuzzi's in your room.

Despite Ornos being only a few moments away from Mykonos Town, you will find plenty of choice at the Kivotos club hotel when it comes to eating, drinking and relaxation should you decide the effort is too much. Two fabulous gourmet restaurants, Le Meduse and Le Pirate, are located inside and by the pool respectively and neither should be missed as their Mediterranean fusion cuisine is superb. For cocktails or snacks there is the circular, swim-up Del Mar Bar and the cosmopolitan K Bar for more lively summer evenings. If a more private dining experience is requested, Kivotos can cater for anything from an intimate dinner for two on the beach to a party of 15 guests at Le Prive.

The Spa Mosaic is on hand to provide many relaxing treatments and the Kivotos pool is perfect for an afternoon's dip, however, their private beach must be considered an enormous bonus for guests. Mykonos can be a very busy island and the beaches rather crowded in the summer months, so the ability to relax on your own stretch of beach with only the few other guests of the Kivotos club hotel for company should not be underestimated. The fact it's only a moments walk from your suite speaks for itself. Any guests wanting to cruise the Aegean will also find the Kivotos more than accommodating thanks to the 'Prince de Neufchatel', their 25-foot yacht available for a day or a week and you can book it in advance through our Luxury advisors.
