30 Best Gay Hotels in Mykonos

Mykonos is one of the Mediterranean’s most popular island destinations, and it also happens to be one of the hottest gay scenes in the world. The island fills up with visitors – both straight and gay – every summer.

 

Due to its overwhelming popularity, gay hotels in Mykonos can be an expensive place to stay. Peak season rates will always be high, especially if you are staying in the main town (known as Chora) or in one of Mykonos’s gay-friendly hotels or beach resorts.

Gay Hotels Mykonos

Mykonos is internationally known for its gay culture and hedonistic party scene. As such pretty much all the hotels in Mykonos are gay-friendly. Gay people on the island will not raise any eyebrows, and you can generally feel comfortable and safe here. If you want more, there are two exclusively gay hotels in Mykonos: Akkadian Gay Only Hotel Mykonos and Elysium Hotel.

In other parts of Greece, it would be advisable for you to be careful and discreet to avoid any hassle. As a traditionally religious and conservative country, Greece does lag behind the rest of Europe in terms of social acceptance of homosexuality and visibility of gay issues.

Since the vast majority of Mykonos gay nightlife is located in Chora, you can filter the gay-friendly hotels on this list by Mykonos Town (gayborhood) to select hotels within walking distance. It is a small town, with everything being within walking distance to each other – do bear in mind, however, that “walking distance” could still mean tackling an incredibly steep hill or two.

If you are planning to explore other areas in Mykonos – which you should, especially the gay-friendly beaches of Elia and Super Paradise – you can stay near one of the bus stations. Each is located at one end of the town, so consider where you’re likely to be going during your stay – the northern station, for instance, runs services to Elia, while the southern one goes to Super Paradise.

Why we love it

♥ Officially a gay-only hotel (since 2024)
♥ Luxury 5-star resort with outdoor pool
♥ Less than 20 minutes walk to the beach
♥ Suites with plunge pool are available

You’d think that as Mykonos attracts many gay travelers, there would be gay-only hotels on every street corner. Surprisingly, that’s not the case; there are only a handful.

Akkadian Hotel tops the list as it’s a 5-star luxury resort that’s super-classy and less than 20 minutes walk from the beach. The resort is now gay-only, so guests can be free to express themselves as only they know how.

Tucked away, it’s a private, hidden oasis yet close enough to the beach and the town — under a mile away. The resort has a restaurant, and the seasonal pool and deck area so get pumped for daily live DJ from 6 pm – midnight, plus exclusive performances of the season, negating the need to ever leave. This is one of the most booked gay hotels in Mykonos.

♥ Stylish 4-star “straight-friendly” hotel, one of the town’s biggest gay hotspots
♥ Incredible sunset terrace hosts popular gay events
♥ All rooms have a small balcony, terraces and showstopping sea views
♥ One of the most booked gay hotels in Mykonos

Elysium is one of the most booked gay hotels in Mykonos, and for good reason. This stylish 4-star is “straight-friendly”, but is very much one of the town’s biggest gay hotspots during the summer peak season. This is thanks in part to its poolside terrace bar, which combines some of the island’s most stunning sunsets with drag shows, parties, and more.

The hotel itself is modern and low-key. The rooms are decorated in a refreshing and minimalist style, with an entirely white color scheme offset by pieces of contemporary art. They come in two categories, with the Superior rooms being considerably larger. All rooms have at least a small balcony, although some have larger terraces and some have lovely sea views.

All guests get complimentary access to a small gym as well as to sauna, hydromassage, and steam room facilities.

Elysium is located a little outside the main town center, but it’s still only a 15-minute walk to seaside gay bars like Babylon. The location on top of a hill makes reaching the hotel a climb, but it is also the reason for its exceptional views.

The staff are one of the best things about Elysium. Not only are they attentive and friendly, but they are also a great source of gay insider knowledge about the island. Overall, the rates at Elysium are relatively high for Mykonos standards, but there is nowhere better to stay if you want to be right in the middle of Mykonos gay life.

♥ Uniquely stylish rooms with great amenities and Instagram-perfect pool
♥ Rooms come with a sea view and many come with a private jacuzzi
♥ Excellent drinking and dining throughout the resort
♥ The main gay nightlife is about 30 mins walk, which is why you may need to hire a vehicle during your stay

Andronikos Hotel is a stylish boutique resort located outside of Mykonos town. With beautiful rooms, modern facilities, and attentive service, it is a great choice for those who just want to relax and forget about the world. It is also the third highest-ranked hotel in Mykonos town on TripAdvisor and very popular with gay visitors.

The rooms are stunning, blending classic Greek island style with contemporary design and lighting. Even the smallest category, the Cocoon Rooms, are supremely comfortable and beautifully designed with fluid curves and natural materials. Rooms come with a Sea View, Garden View, or Pool View, and several have their own private jacuzzi.

Andronikos features a lovely outdoor pool as well as excellent spa and fitness facilities. The gym is particularly noteworthy, with a good selection of cardio and weights equipment. The hotel is adults-only, which means no kids running around the pool, even during peak season.

The hotel has an award-winning modern Greek restaurant, as well as a more casual all-day dining options served at the bars. The Sky Bar is a relatively new addition, and makes for a great place for a sunset cocktail.

The main gay nightlife area in town is about a half-hour walk away, which is why many guests choose to hire a bike during their stay. There is a shuttle service to town twice a day, one in the morning and one in the evening, but you’ll have to get a taxi back. The hotel is about a 15-minute walk to Megali Ammos, a quiet if not a particularly scenic local beach.

♥ Pool villa with outdoor hot tub perfect for groups of 4 to 7 people
♥ Beachside location with pool, close to town and gay bars
♥ Free shuttle service to and from the port or airport
♥ The hotel takes the island’s pure white decor to a whole new level, very Instagrammable

The Mykonos Bay takes the island’s pure white aesthetic to a whole new level, resulting in a beautiful (and very Istagrammable) decor. As a result of its gorgeous look and excellent beachside location, this chic resort is one of the highest-rated hotels in Mykonos on both Booking.com and TripAdvisor.

Indeed, The Mykonos Bay sits right on Megali Ammos, a small and quiet beach just south of Mykonos town. This is one of the best locations on the island if you want to be close to the town while still having immediate access to some sea and sand. It feels removed from the town, but Babylon and Jackie O, on the other side of Chora, are just a 20-minute walk from the hotel.

The rooms are understated, with all-white decor and the occasional nod to Greek classicism. They all have good amenities and many have excellent sea views. There is a wide range of larger rooms that are ideal for friends – the four-person suite with hot tub and the six-person annex suite with hot tub and private pool are particularly great choices.

The pool is large and directly overlooks the beach, meaning you can choose whether to lounge poolside or seaside. There is a delicious and fresh breakfast available in the mornings, and a free shuttle service to and from the port or airport. This is combined with exceptional service and a lovely, attentive, and professional staff team. Mykonos Bay Resort is one of the most booked gay-friendly beach resorts in Mykonos.

This charming boutique hotel radiates Cycladean style, with a decor that manages to be traditional without ever feeling old-fashioned.
