At Mykonos, the name Semeli reminds us of beauty and harmony. These two words combined together gives us an aura of what Semeli Hotel is all about. The daughter of Cadmus and Harmony was Dionysus' mother. Zeus fell in love with her beauty and approached her disguised as rain.

His jealous wife Hera transformed Zeus into a governess and deceived Semeli by convincing her to ask Zeus to appear before her in all his glory. Hera's wish was fulfilled, and as a result Semeli was thunderstruck since Zeus appeared before her surrounded by lightning and thunder.

Just before she died, Semeli brought Dionysus to life who after growing up, descended to the Nether world and brought Semeli back to life making her his inseparable companion ever since. He also included her in his theatrical ensemble together with the Satyrs, Seilens and Bacheans. In Mykonos, Dionysus and Semeli were the most worshipped Olympian Gods.

A place of relaxation and friendly atmosphere with unique elegance has been created in the heart of Mykonos capital.

As you cross the paved narrow street of the hotel, among the small white houses you feel the real architecture becoming one with nature. The colors, stones, bushes and trees all come together with the sea. The sky and the sunlight make you feel home away from home.

Walking through the old entrance door, you are overwhelmed by the simplicity as well as the familiarity of the place which aims at making you feel completely at home. This is enhanced by the friendly personnel who is willing to be of service to the hotel's visitors out of a deep sense of hospitality.

The old stately house was renovated without losing any of its personality. Its old pieces of furniture were used along with the new ones that were carefully selected forming the wonderful rooms where visitors can enjoy the unique breakfast-buffet, and taste the hotel's exquisite cuisine served.

As you walk around the hotel, you can sense the white washed walls, the stone benches, and the small pots of basil, geraniums and bougainvilleas.

While sipping an exotic drink at the bar, one can relax and watch the changing colors of the sea from dawn to dusk. At night time as the ships travel far away into the night, one can sit under the moonlight and enjoy the spectacular view of the swimming pool glistening away.

The hotel combines the traditional architectural structure of modern facilities with fine taste. It is therefore the best choice of relaxation and an unforgettable getaway.
