Greece is one of the favorite vacation spots in Europe and as result to this country travel each year lots of tourists looking for relishing beach holidays and enjoying the rich cultural and historical heritage. In all regions are a large number of attractions, so foreign tourists take trips to vacation resorts located both on the continental area (Athens, the capital city, draws a big part of holiday makers) and islands like Kefalonia, Chios, Milos, Corfu, Crete, Ios, Kos, Rhodes, Mykonos, Naxos, Santorini, Paros and Samos. As a premier tourist country, Greece offers accommodation into a wide range of lodging units, most of Greek resorts and hotels featuring luxury amenities and high-class services.
In Greece are roughly 1400 islands, but only 227 are permanently inhabited and just a few are really well developed for tourist industry, one of them being Mykonos. Island of Mykonos belongs to the top vacation spots in Mediterranean Sea and consequently accommodation is available in numerous luxury hotels and beach resorts. Some of the favorite 4 & 5 star resorts in Mykonos are Hotel Mykonos Blu, Kivotos Club Hotel, Royal Myconian Hotel and Spa, Myconian Imperial Hotel and Thalasso Center, Myconian Ambassador Hotel and Thalasso Center, Hotel Mykonos Grand Resort, Hotel Cavo Tagoo, Hotel Saint John, Apartments Bill & Coo Suites, Hotel Mykonos Theoxenia, Hotel Mykonian Mare Resort, Hotel Mykonos Palace, Hotel Grand Beach, and many others.

Mykonos, located in the Cyclades group, is worldwide renowned for the excellent sandy beaches, cosmopolitan atmosphere and "wild" nightlife. In the peak season are opened many bars, clubs and restaurants where tourists spend great moments by enjoying authentic Greek music and partying on modern music performed by renowned DJs.
Chora is the main resort town and there is concentrated a big part of activities, but everywhere on the island are settled beach resorts where tourists spend truly relaxing and/or active vacations. On Mykonos are located some of the best beaches in Greece like Paradise Beach, Super Paradise Beach, Lia Beach, Elia Beach, Platis Gialos, Psarou, and others. Most of them are well maintained and feature sun-beds, umbrellas, beach bars, restaurants, and facilities for numerous water sports like swimming, water skiing, parasailing, windsurfing, fishing, snorkeling, sailing, and scuba diving.
Even if the splendid beaches and exciting night life are the main reasons why so many tourists spend holidays in Mykonos, there are also several landmarks that made famous this island such as the windmills (built in the the 16th century and probably the emblem of this island), Little Venice (where are buildings with balconies overhanging the water), Paraportiani (medieval walls that defended once the city), and many others. In fact, the entire island was declared national museum of Greece, a confirmation of the fact that tourist attractions are numerous and of high value.
By spending most of daytime on gorgeous beaches and big part of the nights dancing in exquisite clubs and bars, vacations in Mykonos running out very fast and tourists leave some of the most luxurious hotels and resorts in Greece regreting the fact that have not booked longer stays in this Mediterranean paradise!
