My Best New Resort in Greece against #06 on my Greece top 10 — south-coast energy with a true luxury resort behind it, or adults-only calm in a protected bay. This is really a question about which Mykonos you’re flying in for.
Best New Resort, my Greece Collection edit · #06 on my Greece top 10 · both preferred partners
Choose Fouquet’s
If you want the scene, with a resort behind it
The energy of the south coast — walk to Paraga Beach and Scorpios, leave the car behind — with spacious rooms, polished service and ZUMA on property. From $900 a night, booked through me. My Best New Resort in Greece.
Choose Bill & Coo Coast
If the water is the point
Adults-only suites directly on a protected bay, so the meltemi that whips other pools barely registers here. Massive, genuinely private rooms — several with spectacular private pools — and the best breakfasts I had anywhere in Greece.

Bill & Coo Coast is adults-only — guests 17 and up. And if you’re choosing between Bill & Coo’s two properties, it’s Coast over the Mykonos Town location every time: the protected bay, the adults-only policy and the beachfront rooms settle it. Both hotels here are preferred partners — same rate as direct, extras layered on.
The question behind the question
Decide which Mykonos you're flying in for.
Fouquet’s brings the south coast’s energy together with the comforts of a true luxury resort — the right base if you want beach clubs by day and somewhere polished to come back to. I toured it under construction and returned after opening; the finished property exceeded even those expectations, which almost never happens.
But if what you actually want is quiet beachfront — your own beach day without leaving the property, a bay that stays calm in August wind — Bill & Coo Coast is the clear pick, and its breakfasts alone argue the case.
Still deciding?
Tell me your dates and I’ll tell you which one has the room worth having — same rate you’d pay booking direct, sometimes better.
