Property Overview

Avaton sits high above Elia Beach, the longest fine-sand beach on Mykonos, built into the bare rock of the cliffs. The property takes its name from the sacred places of ancient Greece, inaccessible to all but the initiated, and that sense of earned arrival carries through the experience. As a member of Design Hotels, Avaton is rooted in one family's island heritage and a tradition of genuine hospitality, balancing the energy Mykonos is known for with something more restorative up on the rock.

Accommodations

Striking design and panoramic views of the Aegean.

Myconian Avaton's suites and villas are built around the contrast of traditional Cycladic architecture in whitewashed stone set against bold splashes of the hotel's signature red, with the deep blue of the Aegean stretching out below. Each accommodation comes with a private pool, hot tub, or sunny terrace, all oriented toward the tranquil views over Elia Beach.
Pool + Gym

An infinity pool suspended above the Aegean.

The Avaton's pool terrace sits high above Elia Beach, seemingly suspended over the Aegean. The infinity pool stretches toward the horizon in a way that makes the boundary between water and sea genuinely hard to locate – this is one of the finest vantage points on the island.

The gym is equipped for a solid workout, with all of the latest training equipment, and stunning views of Elia Beach below to inspire. Open from nine in the morning until nine at night.
Spa

Seawater therapies rooted in Greek antiquity

The Avaton Spa centers on heated thalassotherapy pools drawing on the cleansing and restorative properties of seawater, a tradition that dates back to ancient Greece. Essential oils and hydro-massage complement the water treatments, alongside a dedicated relaxation area.
Restaurant + Bar

Fine dining with the Aegean spread out below.

Panorama, Avaton's fine dining restaurant, serves up a gourmet experience both indoors and al fresco on the pool terrace, with Elia Beach and the Aegean as the backdrop.

And for drinks, the Kokkino Bar sits alongside the hotel's impressive infinity pool, serving drinks and light meals from day into evening.
  • Vibe
    Unpretentious, exquisite style and absolute privacy.
  • Who's it for?
    Avaton draws couples, honeymooners especially, as well as solo travelers, groups of friends, and anyone who comes to Mykonos for the energy of the island.
  • Location
    Avaton sits high above Elia Beach on Mykonos's south coastline, roughly six miles from Mykonos town. Elia is the island's longest beach – known for its clear water, fine sand, and beach activities – and something of a destination in its own right.
