Sitting on the ridge of the hill in Mykonos yet almost entirely hidden from view, Villa Heaven looks straight out to sea and the most sought after bays of Platis Gialos, Paraga and Psarou. A holiday property with total 6 bedrooms built to enjoy with family and friends, it celebrates its spectacular view from an elevated viewpoint blended into a sensitively landscaped, stone-walled garden that screens it from the road behind.

 Villa Heaven allows guests to enjoy being outside throughout the day and overwhelms the intensity of the climate by providing shade and protection from the elements. And although the villa can accommodate a large number of guests, the landscape is not dominated with oversized volumes. Inspired by the humble complexity of the traditional island vernacular, the architecture was reduced to grey washed volumes, built around a large ‘courtyard’ living area which is covered by expansive but lightweight chestnut pergolas. This courtyard becomes the focal point of the property, seamlessly connected to the living room and kitchen volumes and looking over the two infinity pools and gardens beyond. Beneath the private pool is the independent garden guest suite with a private helipad, separated for privacy and quietly enjoying the uninterrupted view over the lower garden to the sea. Their separation further reduces the overall impact of the property and cleanly divides social and private space.
Villa Heaven is informed by humble Cycladic tradition, enriched by natural materiality and inspired by contemporary summer living.
