For accommodations, I recommend booking early so that you hop on a quick and good deal. If you can get a good airbnb, great because you can get groceries and eat some meals at home. Greek ingredients are so amazing that you can always make an amazing Greek salad at home that is just as good as the ones you get in the restaurants. I suggest that you only spend money on food and going out clubbing. You can find small and public beaches where you don't have to pay for a beach chair.

Don't go to Mykonos. You can easily spend 500 euros just on bread ham, cheese, and cereal... The amount of corruption, bribery, unsanitary working conditions, and arguably, forced labor is outrageous there. There is a good documentary called "Mykonos - The Soul of an Island" people should watch before going

Woah this is pretty scary...thanks for sharing. Really makes you see a different side of Mykonos
 
I's definitely fun to cook while in Greece! The ingredients are of the highest quality. If you're doing your vacation right, you won't e spending a lot of time in your accommodations, so this is good advice.
 
The food in Greece is amazing, and you can save even more money by preparing some of your own meals. When I was there, my family and I went to the store to get lunch ingredients. We'd pack a lunch to eat wherever we ended up for the day, breakfast was included with our hotel, and that left dining out only for dinner.

That's exactly how I like to live in Greece! And why I prefer staying at Airbnb's
 

Nightlife question about Mykonos

I have seen footage of fun-looking club atmospheres on Mykonos. I went last year and couldn't find those parties! I want to try again the next time I am in Greece, probably in September.

I’d love to find places that strike a balance between great music (preferably a mix of international and local beats), a lively but not overly crowded atmosphere, and of course, stunning settings that scream ‘Mykonos’!

Does anyone have personal favorites or hidden gems they'd be willing to share?

What are your opinions about the party scene in Mykonos?

I am traveling to Greece this July with a large group of friends and family and we all have different interests.

Some of the people have never been to Mykonos and are pushing for a longer stay because they want to party.

I did all that when I was younger, and it wasn't the greatest. I loved nightclubs back then, too.

What have been your experiences? I found it to be too hot to party hard. I love to dance, and I couldn't really dance much. The beaches made me feel claustrophobic because there was nowhere to really walk and get away from the loud music!

Mykonos: Nammos Suspended!

Events unfolding rapidly in crackdowns after many years of irregular activities.I don't agree with the Police patrolling the narrow streets of Mykonos for noise levels from the bars in the video which I saw yesterday, felt quite saddened when at this time of the year it is so very nice to browse around Matoyianni with all the lovely shops and boutiques instead of 6-8 police walking up and down these beautiful narrow streets!... They begin to take away sound systems from the bars!

Advice for an extended stay in Mykonos

I plan to be on Mykonos for about a month over the summer and I honestly feel like I am a bit late to the party securing a rental for that long. I am not seeing much on airbnb.

That could change as more properties become available... I don't know.

Am I missing something? Are there other networks that people use when going to Mykonos that I maybe haven't thought of? I don't want to move mid trip but I guess I could. Like do a week here and there. It could give me a chance to see different things on the island.

How do you find the "good" parties on Mykonos?

I went to only one of the beach clubs on Mykonos and it wasn't really my vibe. Yet, I constantly see people partying in Mykonos and it looks fun and they're having a blast. How do these people find those parties?

My questions:

  • Are many of these parties private events?
  • Are there clubs away from the beaches that are known for their nightlife and DJs?
  • Are there different DJs that go to Mykonos? Maybe I can find out about the parties by tracking the DJs?
Another possibility is maybe the party scene really isn't my thing. I appreciate all your thoughts!
