Mykonos Concierge

A team on the island

Mykonos rewards good planning. The best tables are booked weeks ahead, the boats for July and August go early, and the island moves fast between the beach clubs, the old town and the villas in the hills. Kennedy's Group has an office in Mykonos, and our concierge team lives the season there. We arrange the services you need before you arrive and adjust them while you are on the island, 24 hours a day.

Whether you are staying in one of our villas or not, you have one point of contact for everything: one message, and the boat, the car, the chef and the reservation are taken care of.

What we arrange in Mykonos

Yachts and boats

Our largest category on the island. Speedboats and RIBs for beach hopping, sailing catamarans for relaxed days and sunset cruises, and motor yachts for longer trips to Delos, Rhenia and the nearby islands. Every boat comes with a licensed skipper.

Chauffeurs and transfers

Private drivers and comfortable vans such as the Mercedes V-Class for airport and port transfers, evenings out and days exploring the island, so nobody has to worry about parking or driving.

Helicopters

Helicopter transfers between Mykonos, Athens and the other islands, for when the ferry or a scheduled flight would take too long.

Private chefs and service at the villa

A private chef for a dinner at home, with bartender and waiter service for a party or a celebration, so the villa becomes the restaurant.

Security, nannies and wellness

Private security for guests who need it, experienced nannies and kids' activities for families, and wellness and fitness sessions at the villa.

Experiences and reservations

Tables at the restaurants and beach clubs everyone wants, private experiences on and off the island, and concierge packages that bring several services together for a stay.

Planning a stay

• Before you arrive: tell us your dates and what matters to you, and we put together a plan with the boats, the cars and the reservations booked in advance.

• On the island: plans change with the wind and the mood. Message the team and we adjust the boat, the table or the transfer the same day.

• Special occasions: birthdays, proposals, family celebrations and corporate events, organised with our events team.

A day on the island, arranged

To give an idea of how it works, this is what a typical summer day can look like when the concierge takes care of the details. In the morning, a car collects you from the villa and drives you to the port, where a speedboat and its skipper are waiting. The boat heads along the south coast, with swimming stops in coves that are hard to reach by road, and anchors for lunch at a beach taverna where the table was booked the week before. In the afternoon the boat brings you back, a nanny has kept the children busy with activities at the villa, and a massage therapist arrives before sunset. In the evening, a private chef cooks dinner on the terrace, with a bartender for the cocktails, and later a driver takes the group to the old town and waits to bring everyone back.

None of it requires a phone call from you on the day. You tell us what you would like, and we put the pieces together.

Getting around Mykonos

The island is small, but roads are narrow, parking is scarce in the old town and taxis are hard to find at peak hours. A private driver solves most of that, and for groups a van with room for luggage and beach bags is often the easiest option. For days at sea, the boat can pick you up close to your villa when the coast allows it, and for longer trips a helicopter connects Mykonos with Athens and the other islands in a fraction of the ferry time.

Villas and concierge together

Kennedy's Group also manages a collection of private villas in Mykonos, from Psarou and Ornos to Agios Lazaros and Kanalia. Guests in our villas get the concierge from the moment they book, and the team that prepares the villa is the same one that arranges the boat for the next morning.

Getting to the island is part of it too: we arrange private jets and helicopters from Athens and from the rest of Europe, with the car waiting when you land.

The season in Mykonos runs from spring to autumn and is at its busiest in July and August. The earlier you tell us your plans, the more choice you have, especially for boats and the most popular restaurants.

Outside the peak weeks, May, June and September are a good time to enjoy the island at a calmer pace, with warm sea, easier reservations and more boats available at short notice. Whenever you come, tell us how you like to travel, the pace, the food, the people in your group, and we shape the stay around it rather than around a fixed package.
