Villa Artemis, Mykonos

Description

Offering sensational sunset views stretching as far as the island of Delos, Villa Artemis set in the south west of Mykonos is the ideal setting for anyone wanting to enjoy the very best that Greece has to offer.

The villa’s whitewashed exterior, flat roof and rounded walls are typical of the region’s iconic Cycladic architecture, and the building blends perfectly into the lush hillside, surrounded by olive trees and local fauna that match the vibrancy of the brilliant blue sea below. From the heated infinity pool, you can enjoy the mesmerising views and tranquil setting in the typically warm Greek sunshine.

Inside, the juxtaposition of traditional and contemporary is clearly and beautifully executed. In the main living space, stone floors and exposed wooden beams contrast the modern concrete kitchen and stylish cream sofas, while in the bedrooms, a soft, bohemian feel is achieved through rattan furniture, plush white bedding and a neutral colour scheme.

Every detail has been carefully considered here and the luxurious villa is full of hidden little surprises, such as a well-kitted out gym room, a dedicated wine fridge, inviting bed-style sun loungers and a shaded al fresco lounge area. Taking pride of place within the grounds of the Kalesma hotel, you won’t have to wander far to enjoy all the amenities of the 5* boutique hotel, from the striking Aloni Sunset Lounge, delicious dining at Pere Ubu restaurant and the traditionally quaint chapel. Kalesma means ‘invitation’ in Greece, and it goes without saying your invitation to Villa Artemis eagerly awaits your acceptance.

When the food is done, head outside to the al fresco dining area to enjoy the fruits of your labour with spectacular sea views.

There are several secluded spots around the villa to enjoy a sundowner drink or peaceful spot of lunch in the sun, or equally there is plenty of space for everyone to come together at mealtimes. For a special treat, the Kalesma Hotel can even arrange for one of their chefs to come in and prepare a private in-villa dining experience for you.

Accompanying your meal are sunrise or sunset views, depending on the time of day you dine, due to the enviable east-west axis on which it is set.The hotel also has a pool bar and a stylish sunset lounge, complete with fire-pit for drinking late night cocktails around.
