Didn't have enough time here. This place is so great you need at least 3 weeks.
Favorite thing about Mykonos: Everything!! The food, the beaches, the people, the weather...
My favorite beach is Super Paradise, my favorite village is the main town and the best activity we had was visiting Delos and running on the island by scooter. Best restaurant: Marco Polo... Yummy!
Negative opinion: The island needs more credit card facilities and mini markets.
Recommendations: Allow at least 2 weeks to enjoy. There is a great number of beaches for such a small island and it will take you at leats 2 weeks to go on all of them. And in two weeks you will never get bored of the beautiful town.
I would love to go back on the island of Mykonos. I will recommend the island to all my friends.
