Cavo Tagoo, Mykonos

Advantages: close to city center, unique panoramic aegean sunset views,swimming pool, parking, very clean, great hospitality, excellent value
Disadvantages: breakfast is rather poor

...For the past 14 years, i spend the biggest part of my summer holidays in Myconos. Here, i have to say that Myconos is a very expensive island, and as in any touristic place, it is very easy to become a victim of profiteers. Also, as a greek myself i feel very ashamed of seeing people making elicit profit from tourism. However, after a 3 year "hunting" for a hotel that would satisfy my needs without having to pay a fortune , i spent some days in Tagoo. Since then, I have become a regular customer, and tagoo became to me sth like a summer house. The prices are extremely good comparing the average ones in Mykonos and Tagoo has lots of advantages that extinguish it from the rest.

...didn't hear them anymore. But personally, I think it does spoil the island a little. The pace of life in Mykonos is very relaxed. We spent most day's pottering around the town, or on the beach at St Stephanos (a ten minute bus journey from the town).

...This review,at least,is mine 100%. It can be found in a couple of sites as well, but it's not my fault.Now you can decide if you want to read this op or not. -If "Yes"...go on and happy reading. -If "No" click back and rate me as "unhelpful" if you like ------------------------------------------------------------------ I apologize that I’ve putted my op about Mykonos under the section for general info about Greece, but I didn’t know that I could create a sub-category. Sorry again. To call Mykonos a 'gay island' is like calling San Francisco a 'gay city'. Sure there are gay bars and homosexuality is not hidden, but unless you are looking for it you may not even notice it because above all, Mykonos is a destination for all types of people. From jet setters to college students and families, Mykonos is Greece's most... Read review
