At a Glance
This four-star hotel is the down-to-earth, less trendy alternative to Belvedere (which sits nearby). The Semeli however is situated away from the road and closer to the sea.
Indagare Loves
Its quiet position and proximity to town.
Review
This four-star sister of the Mykonos View, the Semeli offers a more affordable and very relaxing option to the most lavish Belvedere. The stylish color scheme throughout the 65 rooms and suites (renovated in early 2014) is white, sand and dark gray with glass, stone and corian surfaces. Ask for the superior sea view rooms or even better, the superior double spa sea view rooms. The gorgeous Semeli Suite sleeps up to seven on three floors, has panoramic views, two outdoor hot tubs and picturesque views.
The well-regarded Semeli Spa offers a variety of tempting treatments such as the Chakra hot stone massage and the self-explanatory Four Hands massage. For those traveling from the U.S., the Jetlag massage might be a good way to begin the holiday.
Who Should Stay
People who want a well-located, quiet hotel or people who don’t want to pay Belvedere prices. Families with clubbing teenagers.
