A 3-star hotel that changed my opinion!
Normally I would book a 5-star hotel, but this time I took a gamble on a 3-star — and I was genuinely surprised. Anna-Maria Mykonos has changed my opinion of 3-star hotels. It is clean, modern and beautifully maintained, and the design and cleanliness compare very favourably with some 5-star hotels. Of course, you don't get the gym, facilities or services of a 5-star, but for a 3-star it is excellent.
The location is great, with a bus stop directly outside. Buses are just €2.20 to Mykonos Town or Paradise Beach and run until around 2am.
Breakfast is pleasant with enough choice to set you up for the day. For longer stays, changing a few items each day would add more variety and interest. The coffee machine could also be improved.
Mina is very helpful and Stavroula is fantastic, always happy to recommend restaurants and places to visit.
I highly recommend hiring a buggy — the rental place is just 3 minutes away. You can explore the whole island and discover amazing beaches. The monastery is definitely worth visiting.
The cleaners are friendly and work incredibly hard, with rooms cleaned daily. Food, drinks and snacks are reasonably priced, and there is a shop just a few minutes' walk away.
Rooms have an iron, hairdryer, fridge, tea/coffee and air conditioning.
I found some negative reviews a little unfair. We were treated very well and found the staff friendly and helpful.
The pool is pleasant and relaxing, with a great atmospher
