Mykonos

Beautiful beach with restaurant and clean bathrooms - town was a bit long for us but you can jump on a sea bus for 2.50euros

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed the beach and its facilities. We also appreciate your feedback about the town time, and yes, the SeaBus is a convenient option for returning to the port.

Mykonos is beautiful

Theresa_C, Jun 2026

Mykonos is *very* windy so expect to be "sand-blasted" at the beach. Spend the extra Euro to sit up front in the beach chairs. The town was charming. Eat at Captains. Great staff and food. Picturesque place

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for your review! 😊 Mykonos is certainly famous for its refreshing summer winds, which are part of the island's unique charm. We're delighted you enjoyed the picturesque beauty of Mykonos Town and had a great dining experience. Thank you for sharing your helpful tips with future travelers, and we hope to welcome you back to Mykonos again soon!

Beautiful Beach, Great Food, but Limited Time and a Chaotic Return

Dale_C, Jun 2026

Overall, we enjoyed our beach day excursion to Elia Beach in Mykonos. Finding our guide was easy, as they were waiting immediately after we got off the ship, and the bus ride to the beach was smooth and uneventful. Elia Beach itself was beautiful, with crystal-clear water and excellent facilities. The restaurants and restrooms were very clean, and the food and drinks were delicious. One thing to note is that loungers and umbrellas are quite expensive, ranging from €50–70 for two loungers and an umbrella. Families with children should also be aware that the far right side of the beach caters to a more traditional European beach culture, so you may want to choose your spot accordingly. The biggest downside was the limited time at the beach. We only had about 2.5 hours to enjoy it due to traffic crossing the island and because two guests arrived late to the bus from their boat. Unfortunately, the return trip was somewhat disorganized when one of the buses was delayed, forcing the staff to split the group between a private van and the remaining bus. Despite the rushed schedule and chaotic return, the beach itself was beautiful, and we still had a very enjoyable day. I would recommend the excursion, but I wish there had been more time to relax at the beach and a smoother return process.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for your thoughtful and balanced review. We're delighted you enjoyed beautiful Elia Beach, the crystal-clear waters, and found our meeting point easy to locate. We're sorry your beach time was a little shorter than planned. Unfortunately, heavy traffic during the busy season, combined with waiting for late-arriving guests, can occasionally affect the schedule. We also appreciate your patience with the return arrangements. Splitting guests between vehicles was the quickest way to ensure everyone returned to the port on time for their cruise. Thank you again for your recommendation. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back to Mykonos for an even smoother experience in the future!

Great excursion!

Heather_C, Jun 2026

Booked this trip last minute while on a cruise, our cruise Hunter was late so we missed the beginning of the excursion. I reached out to the number listed on the reservation, the woman reassured me that there was another tour to be at the port at 1:30 a few hours later than our original time and it was a great excursion. We took a nice ride around Mykonos Island on a tour bus we went to a lovely resort and swim in the sea Michael our guide was fantastic. He even walked with us through the streets of Mykonos following the tour and gave us excellent pointers on history, restaurants, shopping, etc. highly recommend.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so glad we were able to accommodate you on a later departure after your cruise arrived late. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the island tour, the beach, and your time exploring Mykonos. Michael will be delighted to know his local knowledge and recommendations helped make your day extra special. Thank you for the recommendation, and we hope to see you again!

Gorgeous beach. Went over to the chairs on the right when we were dropped off and managed to get them for 20 euros each

The beach was lovely and...

Lynda_S, Sep 2025

The beach was lovely and it would have been much better to have been able to spend more time there -we only had 2 hours and we were taken back to the town which is lovely but we would have preferred more time at the beach

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the lovely beach and the charm of town. We understand some guests prefer more beach time while others enjoy exploring Mykonos Town — the tour is designed to offer a bit of both. Your comments are appreciated and help us keep improving!
