Mykonos may be only 6.2 miles long and 9.3 miles wide, but this Greek island packs in plenty of attractions for American travelers. However, its size means that accommodation can be hard to find on the island, especially during the peak summer season. Meanwhile, AirBnB points out the range of accommodation available on the island, including rooms, apartments and homes, which cater to all.

Let’s take a look at why the small island of Mykonos is such a major destination for US travelers.

Mykonos is famed for its lively party atmosphere, with a choice of many beach bars and dance clubs to choose from. For those seeking a party, beaches like Paradise and Super Paradise are the places to be for beach bars and loud music. Meanwhile, the island has some of the best nightclubs, including Moni and Void in the center of Chora where people can dance the night away. While Ibiza in Spain has always been the party capital of the world, this small Greek island is quickly catching up to its Spanish counterpart.

Naturally, the islands’ many beaches are a major draw for visitors from around the globe. In fact, Mykonos has more than 30 beaches to choose from. However, the beaches on the south of the island are well organized with all the necessary amenities. For example, Psarou Beach is the place to be for celebrity spotting

However, to the north of Mykonos, remote and hidden beaches can be found. While these are an attraction for someone who wants to escape the crowds, little is available in the way of amenities. Psarou Beach is the place to be if you’re looking for decadence and celeb spotting. Meanwhile, Agrari Beach is perfect for anyone seeking peace and quiet. No matter which beach you visit, all are equally beautiful.

While Mykonos is best known for its beaches and beautiful towns, it is also full of interesting culture and history. For example, adventurous folk can climb Cynthus Mountain where the legend says Apollo was born.

Moreover, the island is dotted with beautiful windmills, adding even more to its lovely landscapes. Meanwhile, one of the most famous places in Mykonos is Little Venice with its pretty medieval fishermen’s houses lining the coast. For those in the mood for exploring, Mykonos Town has endless narrow streets, lined by restaurants and unique shops.

Another aspect is that the island appeals to everyone, no matter their budget. Here, luxury villas with private pools and five-star resorts draw wealthier travelers. Meanwhile, the harbor is full of luxurious yachts where the rich and famous enjoy a Greek Island hop.

However, for those on a budget, Mykonos also offers a good range of quaint guest houses and affordable all-inclusive hotels. Moreover, outside the most popular resorts, food and drink prices are also within anyone’s budget.
