Villa Chantily | 6-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool in Southern Aegean
Holiday Home Rental Description
Eighteen guests arrive at the edge of Paradise Beach, Mykonos, where a luxury villa rental emerges from the hillside rocks like something from an architectural dream. Villa Chantily commands 10,000 square metres of natural terrain on the eastern tip of the island, positioned just 1.5km above the legendary Super Paradise Beach club that has powered Mykonos nightlife for five decades. This is where families, friend groups and multi-generational celebrations unfold across six bedrooms, six bathrooms and two independent guest houses—enough space that privacy and community coexist without friction.
Inside Villa Chantily
Villa Chantily sleeps 18 guests across 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, distributed across the main residence and two satellite structures. The ground floor contains the working heart of the villa: a fully equipped kitchen with stone counters and professional-grade appliances flows into an open dining area seating twelve, while a generous living space commands views across the Aegean. Three sleeping quarters occupy this level—a twin bedroom with ensuite and side views, plus two double rooms with ensuite bathrooms and terrace access. Each room away from the kitchen features a personal Nespresso machine and mini-fridge, a small luxury that transforms morning routines.
The first floor hosts the master suite and two additional doubles. The master bedroom commands private jacuzzi access within its ensuite shower room, positioned to capture sea views during every soak. The fridge and coffee machine inside mean guests never need to descend for caffeine. The two remaining doubles each offer their own ensuite shower rooms, refrigeration and Nespresso capability, ensuring the upper floor functions as an independent sanctuary for those seeking separation from communal spaces.
Guest House One stands as a 60-square-metre studio sleeping four: one double bed paired with two singles, all serviced by a single ensuite. Guest House Two accommodates a further two guests with a double bedroom, ensuite bathroom, kitchenette and sofa bed suitable for children. Both structures sit independently within the grounds, each with dedicated garden seating and parking—ideal for adult children, grandparents or friends seeking connection without constant proximity.
The interior design balances minimalist restraint with warmth. Dark wooden furniture grounds modern interiors against naturally cool tones. A stone feature fireplace anchors the living area beside minimalist shelving and television. Linen throughout reflects luxury standards—Egyptian cotton sheets, quality soft furnishings and attention to comfort that registers immediately upon arrival. The villa runs a premium sound system throughout all spaces, meaning music follows guests from kitchen to terrace to poolside without requiring external speakers.
Outdoor Spaces and Living
Step outside and the landscape multiplies. The 110-square-metre private pool sits as the centerpiece, surrounded by twelve sunbeds and loungers scattered across multiple terraces. A pizza oven and barbecue facilities occupy dedicated zones, while the bar and shaded dining structure—capable of seating twenty—transforms evening meals into events. The bar itself becomes a natural gathering point for pre-dinner drinks, accessible without entering the main villa.
These outdoor levels fan downward across the hillside terrain, each defined by large boulders, stone walls and Mediterranean planting in silver and green tones. The landscape itself becomes privacy infrastructure; the rock formations and planted boundaries mean different guest groups can occupy different terraces simultaneously without sightlines. Parking for three vehicles sits at the perimeter, and three vehicle transfers can be arranged locally for larger group arrivals.
Sea views dominate from almost every exterior vantage point—uninterrupted perspectives across the eastern coastline toward Turkey, with no development between the villa and the horizon. At sunset, the light travels across the water and strikes the villa’s pale surfaces, turning everything golden. At night, the Aegean becomes a field of starlight, unmarked by light pollution from this hillside position. The sound of waves carries up from Super Paradise Beach below, a constant Mediterranean soundtrack to morning coffee and evening aperitivos.
Location: Mykonos and the Surrounding Area
Villa Chantily occupies the eastern shoulder of Mykonos, positioned 6km from Mykonos Town, 3km from the airport and 3km from the quieter village of Agrari. The positioning is strategic: close enough to reach cultural attractions and restaurants within fifteen minutes, far enough to escape crowds and evening noise.
Super Paradise Beach lies 1.5km downhill and operates as the island’s most recognizable club-beach destination. Elia Beach—famous for its silvery sand and 1.5km length—sits 4km distant and appeals to families seeking space without EDM soundtracks; the rainbow flag section marks it as an LGBT-friendly zone, and water taxis depart from here toward Platys Gialos and other southern coves. Paradise Beach and Psarou Beach both lie within 3km, each offering distinct character: Paradise attracts surfers and younger crowds, Psarou suits those seeking sophisticated dining with sand underfoot.
Mykonos Town (Hora) commands 6km distance and represents the second major attraction on the island after beaches. Expect a labyrinth of marble lanes bordered by electric-blue painted doors, cascading magenta bougainvillea and whitewashed Cycladic architecture dating to the 18th century. The Church of Panayia Paraportiani stands as the most photographed religious building in Greece. Matogliani Street concentrates Greek designer boutiques, while Mayoyanni hosts international brands. Little Venice features waterfront restaurants where you can dine metres from the sea; the Archaeological Museum and Folklore Museum document island history from Minoan settlements onward. The open-air cinema operates seasonally, screening films under starlight—a distinctly Greek cultural experience.
The village of Ano Mera lies 8km inland and preserves pre-tourism Mykonian life: narrow streets, family tavernas and a slower rhythm entirely absent from the coast. The Panagia Tourliani Monastery dates to 1580 and remains active; the Paleokastro Monastery occupies centuries-old stones in the hills beyond. Both merit the 20-minute drive for their architectural significance and peaceful settings.
For dining, Mykonos exceeds expectations across all price points. Taverna Niko in Agrari serves grilled fish within sight of the water. Ling Ling Club at Super Paradise Beach combines dining with club energy. For something quieter, Kiki’s Taverna in Ano Mera operates without electricity (candlelit evenings, traditional grilled meats). Supermarkets including Mylonos operate in Mykonos Town and Agrari; for fresh produce, the central market in Hora runs Monday-Saturday mornings. Wine cooperatives across the island produce Cycladic whites—the volcanic soil creates distinctive mineral characters.
Mykonos operates as an open-air sports destination. Windsurfing and kiteboarding center at Platys Gialos, 5km south; boat hire operates from multiple beaches, allowing day trips to nearby Delos (ancient Greek sanctuary, UNESCO site, 20km by ferry) or Rhenia. Cycling routes connect villages via quiet roads; rental shops operate in Hora. Scuba diving centers cater to certified divers exploring underwater caves and shipwrecks.
The island peaks during June-August when temperatures reach 28-30°C with reliable northwest winds cooling afternoons. July-August brings maximum crowds and maximum noise from beach clubs. May-June and September-October offer superior conditions: warm enough for swimming, cool enough for walking, fewer tourists and still-reasonable accommodation pricing. Easter week attracts Greek Orthodox pilgrims. Explore our luxury villas in Greece for alternative Aegean options, or check our full collection in the Southern Aegean.

Who This Villa Suits Best
Multi-generational families benefit from Villa Chantily’s distributed sleeping arrangement—grandparents occupy the master suite with private facilities, adult children inhabit the first-floor doubles, younger guests occupy guest houses, and the living space provides neutral gathering territory without anyone feeling cramped. The pool accommodates simultaneous swimming; the terraces allow separate groups to socialize without collision.
Friend groups of 10-18 find the configuration ideal for vacations where sub-groups want flexibility. The three separate sleeping clusters mean movie nights, late dinners and spontaneous activities happen without disturbing sleeping guests. Couples celebrating significant milestones—anniversaries, retirements, milestone birthdays—appreciate the privacy combined with infrastructure for hosting. Wedding parties use Villa Chantily as the primary residence while renting nearby properties, creating a private compound effect with shared facilities.
Corporate retreat groups value the setup for team-building: the dining structure accommodates twenty for evening meetings or celebrations; the bar supports cocktail receptions; separate sleeping arrangements mean work and rest compartmentalize cleanly. Families with teenagers find the pool, bar setup and proximity to Mykonos Town’s shops and clubs strike an age-appropriate balance.
