Bottom Line

De.Light Boutique Hotel is a four-pearl hotel on scenic Agios Ioannis Bay. The location is quiet and relaxed, but the nightlife and attractions of Mykonos town are only a little over a 10-minute drive from the property. The 18 units at De.Light are all spacious suites and come with free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, DVD players, and balconies or terraces with bay views. Many also offer jetted tubs, and showers are high-tech. The bay-facing infinity pool is a highlight, with its poolside bar, and there's a small spa plus a fine-dining restaurant with Mykonos cuisine. An a la carte breakfast is free and includes a nice number of options. Nearby Saint John Hotel Villas & Spa has similar facilities and is cheaper, though it's a little more old school.

De.Light Boutique Hotel

Scene

Contemporary boutique hotel with a quiet vibe overlooking Agios Ioannis Bay 

De.Light Boutique Hotel is located in one of the more serene spots on Mykonos, overlooking the sparkling blue Agios Ioannis Bay and Delos Island. The hotel is situated on grounds with wildflowers, wild grasses, and shrubs. Its three-story building is designed in the contemporary Cycladic style typical of Mykonos. The building is a brilliant white with light-blue doors, shutters, and railings, and the white contrasts nicely with the vivid blue of the bay and the infinity swimming pool. This same view is found in the restaurants, lobby-level balcony, and all of the suites. The hotel attracts well-heeled leisure travelers, including plenty of couples. The quiet vibe is particularly lovely, especially on an island that can feel bursting at the seams in high season.

Location

Picturesque Agios Ioannis Bay location, a five-minute walk from the beach

De.Light Boutique Hotel is situated in the Agios Ioannis Diakoftis area overlooking the calm Agios Ioannis Bay on the Aegean Sea. This area isn't akin to the bustling little historic towns that most visitors to Mykonos want -- instead, expect just a few casual restaurants and cafes nearby, and a much slower pace. The nearest beach is a five-minute walk away and there are several other beaches within driving distance of the hotel. Ornos Beach takes five minutes to reach by car, Paraga Beach takes 15 minutes, and Paradise Beach a 20-minute drive from the hotel. Armenistis Lighthouse is also a 20-minute drive. A bus going to Mykonos Town -- a 10-minute drive away -- stops outside the hotel for those without their own car. In Mykonos Town visitors will find restaurants, bars, nightclubs, several museums, Matoyianni Street shopping, the iconic Mykonos Windmills, and Little Venice, characterized by historic houses perched over the water.  Mykonos Island National Airport is a 10-minute drive from the hotel and Mykonos Ferry Port is a 15-minute drive.
