Mykonos Blu

Kind regards from the blue donkey

      
He is something like the trademark and mascot of the Mykonos Blu: several of the blue donkeys stand there in a friendly manner and greet the guests, who are led to check-in in the spacious, bright lobby by a nice girl in an apron dress.

You take a seat on thick, soft cushions, are served ice-cold juices and enjoy the view of the deep blue Aegean. The resort nestles like a winding village on the hillside above the pretty bay. At the top: reception and lobby. In the middle: terraced pool area and restaurants. At the bottom: the fine sandy beach - beach service included - which can be reached via steps. Next to the hotel beach is Nammos, one of the island's best-known beach clubs.

We particularly liked the garden-like terrace in our spacious suite (701) with the - important at the end of the season - heatable infinity pool. Small drawback: Amenities were not replenished and the lack of signage made it a little difficult to find our way back in the dark at first.

The Mykonos Blu boasts a particularly excellent breakfast with regional products. In general, the selection and quality are just right, even if you don't arrive too late, because then the staff don't take it too seriously when it comes to refilling and replenishing. On the other hand, the evening dinner was a great pleasure. Top service from the German-speaking restaurant manager and a varied menu, from which octopus carpaccio, tuna tartare and grilled entrecôte were equally impressive. The Greek wines were also very appealing in the indoor restaurant with its light southern atmosphere. The terrace is usually the first choice, but it was a little chilly. Whether inside or outside, even when it's busy, the atmosphere is always very relaxed.
