Stayed at the Mykonos Bay Resort (booked early, was the best hotel, service and food of our entire trip) and insane breakfast spread included each day + has an incredible pool + and beach (water is rocky - typical of Mykonos) 15min walk (a little uphill with an incredible view) to Mykonos town Very safe for walking during the day and at night, several people in groups and solo walking to/from at night on the roads as well Recommend: Avoid being out from 11-3, use this time to layout and tan + nap and then start getting ready for dinner Luxury brands like Louis Vuitton are here + open late until 2am and are packed like a club a night…not an exaggeration, we saw it like this at midnight. Everyone is out late here If in town on a Sunday, you have got to go to Scorpios Sunday, there’s a shuttle bus from Mykonos town that can take you there, otherwise try to get a car service phone number to schedule a ride ahead of time (60€ return ride)… it gets insanely packed like a Vegas night club. Don’t accept a drink unless you see it get poured here, way too packed of a place and I wouldn’t count on the people here to advocate for someone if they saw something happening.

I traveled to Mykonos solo (24 yr old woman) for two nights and had a great time! Food and drinks were way more expensive than other parts of Greece, but I expected that. It was also a little difficult to meet people at the beach clubs (slightly pretentious vibes), but I did feel very safe and had a great time going out in the old town.

Mykonos is a party island and promotes itself in this way. I had a good time on this island, but I'm not the party type. Two or three days were enough to explore the island.

This is terribly touristic and expensive, and without friends, it's not so fun anymore. The party scene was difficult to understand for a young, lonely woman... unfortunately, I was sexually harassed in a club.
