Madres Houses

“Madres Houses and everything we recommend doing in Mykonos.”

My husband, my two young teenage daughters and me spent a week here in October 2019. This was our first time in Mykonos so we didn't know what to expect.

My husband, my two young teenage daughters and me spent a week here in October 2019. This was our first time in Mykonos so we didn't know what to expect. A quick taxi ride away and we were there (15€). As these are right in the centre, cars aren't able to go right up to them so we were dropped at the top of a flight of stairs and told to go down. At first her couldn't find them (it was dark) but we asked a girl in a bar, near the port and she promptly found someone to help. It turned out that she was the cleaner and we saw her every day after that. She was friendly, didn't speak much English but we got the gist of what she said although we have been holidaying in Greece for years so have some Greek. She showed us to the apartment, which was basic but clean and tastefully decorated. Fridge,hob,kettle, toastie maker, hairdryer in the apartment, air conditioning and safe included in the price. On the 2nd day the frienly owners came to see us and offered us a larger room but we didn't bother moving as we couldn't be bothered packing etc. The cleaner showed us other apartments. They are all of a completely different layout. We were right beside an old windmill and the view was spectacular. I recommend watching the Sunset from there. The apartment is on a steep hill/stairs so might not suit elderly etc. We loved the location. Out of the way but you literally have everything on your doorstep. Shops, restaurants and bars. The old port is a minute walk away, little Venice, castle Panigirakis and the bus station about 5 minutes. Ornos is walkable, about 3km away. Be aware, Mykonos is expensive, a small bottle of local beer is around 8 or 9 euros. There is a bar near the port that was 8 euros for a pint. Food is expensive too unless you go to the many gyros places which are fab, especially Saki's. However, if you're looking for a more formal style of dining at a good price, you'll struggle. Its not like other places in Greece! We did find one place though called Kosta's which was good value for money. 1 litre of wine only 14 euros. Huge Lamb Kleftico 15 euros. If you're looking to take back gift, shop around. I saw shops selling key rings for 7 euros and then saw them for 1 euro in another. The bus station was handy and we went to paradise and Psarou beaches. 1.80 euro return pp. The beach at the port is fine too if you don't want to travel far. We also met the Pelican while we were there. He is always near the restaurants behind little Venice. I thoroughly enjoyed Mykonos Town. It's clean, colourful and has the most amazing photo opportunities. Expensive so maybe not again but definitely a bucket list tick!

“In the centre of town, very clean.”

Was hard to find even taxi driver had no idea where it was. After a phone call a lady met us and took us down lots of steps. Not easy for us, we should have known as cars are not allowed in the maze of streets. Room nicely decorated and clean. Very central for shops bars etc. Finding our way ba… Mehr

Not easy for us, we should have known as cars are not allowed in the maze of streets. Room nicely decorated and clean. Very central for shops bars etc. Finding our way back was both a challenge and a relief. When we left a lovely man called Thassos helped us with our bags, he took us to the square where we were able to get a taxi to the airport.
