Mycenaean Acropolis at Koukounaries

Great place great people will recommend to all my peers

Beautiful, new property with amazingly well tended gardens. Pool overlooks the ocean with Naxos in the distance. The kitchen offers a high end menu for all meals. Rooms are spacious and designed to relax with every detail thought out. The views never seem to get old! Staff is what you’d expect of a six-star hotel if it existed.

We stayed at Mythic for four nights and overall had a lovely stay thanks to the beautiful setting, stunning views and friendly restaurant staff. The hotel has a relaxing aesthetic and the pool area is especially beautiful at sunset. Breakfast was a highlight. Ordering from the menu felt much nicer than a buffet and food quality was excellent, though a smoothies/wellness drinks menu would suit the vibe better. The bed was very comfortable and the shower great. The room was quite small but outdoor space helped. Layout could improve as the wardrobe door couldn’t fully open and there were limited hooks for towels/swimwear, especially near the hot tub. The hot tub was enjoyable but appeared to leak, leaving the patio slippery. The room wasn’t very peaceful due to noise from above and unavoidable light at night from devices and signage. Housekeeping was the weakest part. Towels and toiletries weren’t consistently replenished, and basics like bath mats and outdoor towels were missing, along with small wellness-style touches. Spa treatments were lovely, but facilities are limited to treatment rooms and would benefit from extras like a sauna or relaxation space. The pool is beautiful but very cold as it isn’t heated, with no clear poolside service. Smoking around the restaurant during meals didn’t fit the wellness atmosphere. Overall, Mythic is visually stunning with great potential, but misses key service details needed to feel truly luxurious and wellness-focused.
