Pelagos Studios

The calm atmosphere during the week was great for unwinding, and every room has a nice balcony where you can sit with a drink at night, watch the stars, or enjoy the breeze. Weekends can be a bit louder with groups of teenagers or young travellers, though it usually isn’t too disruptive and still feels laid-back. Pelagos Studios is a practical, good-value place to stay close to the beach, just a two-minute walk for a morning visit or sunset. The rooms are clean and functional but a little outdated. There are updated units for a small extra cost, which seems worth it for a longer stay or if you’d like a fresher space. A small supermarket by the entrance is surprisingly well stocked and reasonably priced, handy for drinks, snacks, or groceries. It isn’t a luxury resort, but it’s a comfortable base with easy beach access and a friendly feel. We’d definitely return.

Family run and really well kept. The staff were kind and helpful, and we found the pool menu spot on with fair prices. A 100% recommendation for Mykonos.

We found the pool lovely, clean, and pleasantly warm, and the bar prices were reasonable. The hotel is a minute from a beautiful beach, though there isn't much space to sunbathe unless you rent a lounger. We preferred Psarou, the next beach along, since it had much more room. Google Maps showed a 20-minute walk, but there's a shortcut to the left on the way that took us about 6-7 minutes from the hotel. The bus stop is around five minutes away, with convenient €2 single fares. Our basic room felt dated, and the shower was small for a longer stay. We can't speak for the other room types. Staff could have been friendlier. Beach towels are available with a €20 deposit, and there's a late-opening shop below the hotel with lots of choice, though like much in Mykonos, it's expensive.

The beach is just a minute away, and we were surprised by how large the pool was compared with the others we saw nearby. There's also a mini market at reception, and vehicle rentals close by. The welcome was lovely: the staff showed us around, explained how to get about, and kindly upgraded us to a larger room even though we hadn't asked. Our room was great, with a handy kitchenette, and it was cleaned every day. We did have bugs and lizards getting inside, so keep the windows shut and the AC on; they can provide an extra key card for the power. For a two-star hotel, it deserves more recognition. 10/10, worth every penny and fully recommended.
