..... Kalley Mera Kalllo Mina...I have traveled extensively and lived in Mykonos for many years....I would just pack and just arrive at the port and speak to the ladies and guys waiting at the port renting rooms and apartments...... you will be surprised how welcoming these folks can be... this applies to all the other islands...too!....So much fun.... Wish I could travel.... just had my first Pfizer shot...
 
I just did a quick google search, and there are a few places that are $80 a night. I'm not sure if you're looking for cheaper than that. Im sure if you search on an ongoing basis and book at the right time you'll be able to find something for a good price. They might just not be centrally located or not have all of the amenities that you would like
 
It all depends on the time of year when you go. Some months are cheaper than others. $80 a night really isn't bad. Sometimes Air BnBs are cheaper than hotels, too.

$80 is a pretty good price for Mykonos. I've only seen those prices on smaller and less popular islands

Pros and Cons - Mykonos Town vs Staying Outside the Center

I’ve been to Mykonos a few times and have always stayed close to the center of Mykonos Town. It’s been convenient, especially for walking everywhere, being near restaurants, and not having to think too much about transportation.

That said, I’m considering going again and wondering if it might be worth staying outside the center this time. I’ve never done it, so I’m not sure what the experience is like in comparison.

For those who have stayed in both areas, how did it differ for you? Did you find it more relaxing outside of Town, or did the added logistics make things harder? I’m especially curious about getting around at night and whether it takes away from the overall experience.

Would you choose to stay outside the center again, or do you feel like being based in Town is still the better option?

Advice for Snorkeling in Mykonos?

I'm considering a trip to Mykonos this summer and was thinking about doing some snorkeling while I'm there. I've spent time swimming in Greece before, but I've never really explored what Mykonos offers specifically for snorkeling.

For those who have snorkeled around the island, are there particular beaches or areas that you would recommend? I'm less interested in organized excursions and more interested in places where I can simply bring my own gear and explore from shore.

How is the visibility in the water during the summer months? Are there any spots known for interesting marine life, underwater rock formations, or especially clear water?

I'd also appreciate any practical advice regarding currents, crowds, or the best times of day to go. If you've had a great snorkeling experience in Mykonos, I'd love to hear where you went and what made it memorable.

Best Mykonos Sunset Spots?

I’m starting to plan a trip to Mykonos and one of the things I’d really love to experience is a beautiful sunset, but ideally somewhere beyond the most crowded, obvious spots. I know places like Little Venice are famous for sunsets, but I’m wondering if there are quieter locations that still offer amazing views.

Are there beaches, viewpoints, or even small chapels or hillsides where you’ve watched the sunset that felt special? I’d especially love places that feel a bit more relaxed or off the beaten path, even if they require a short walk or drive to get there.

If you’ve been to Mykonos, where did you have your favorite sunset moment? Was it planned, or something you discovered by accident? Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Mykonos Okay to Visit in March?

A friend recently asked me whether Mykonos is a good place to visit in March, and I realized I don’t have a great answer, even though I’ve been there before. My experience with Mykonos has only been in the height of summer, when everything is open, busy, and very much in full swing.

I’m curious how the island feels in early spring. I assume it’s much quieter, but does that make it enjoyable or does it feel too closed down? Are restaurants, cafés, and shops still operating, even at a reduced level? Is it more of a peaceful, local experience, or does it feel like a place waiting for the season to start?

My friend isn’t necessarily looking for nightlife, but does want good food, nice walks, and a sense of atmosphere. I’d love to hear from anyone who has visited Mykonos in March—or lives there year-round—about what to realistically expect that time of year.

Best viewpoints in Mykonos?

I’m in the early stages of planning a possible trip to Mykonos and have started researching the best viewpoints on the island. I know about the classic sunset spot near the windmills and Little Venice, but I’m wondering what other viewpoints are worth seeking out, especially ones that aren’t completely packed with crowds.

Are there any higher lookouts, coastal cliffs, quiet hills, or hidden spots where you can really take in the sea and the whitewashed buildings from above? I’d love both sunrise and sunset recommendations, whether they’re easy to reach or require a bit of walking or driving.

Also curious if any viewpoints are near beaches, chapels, or small tavernas where you can linger and enjoy the view longer.

If you’ve been to Mykonos, what viewpoint left the strongest impression on you?
