PB hotel design editorial

Cascading down a hillside above Ornos Bay in a choreography of whitewashed cubic volumes and dry-stone terrace walls, the architecture of Kalesma Mykonos draws directly from the agrarian building logic of the Cyclades — farmhouses, dovecotes, retaining walls — rather than the polished minimalism that dominates the island's newer hotel stock. Designed by Greek architect Vana Pernari and opened in 2021, the 26-villa property steps down the slope in tightly stacked rows, each unit angled to secure its own private plunge pool and unobstructed view toward the Aegean, the silhouette of Paros visible on clear afternoons. Inside, the interiors sustain the same disciplined restraint. Reed-and-timber ceilings — the kalamoti construction traditional to Greek island vernacular — span whitewashed rooms furnished in a palette of charcoal, warm linen, and undyed stone. Fluted blackened-wood headboards anchor the bedrooms, which open through steel-framed casement doors onto private terraces. The dining pavilion uses the same vocabulary in a more theatrical register: dark louvered screens pivot open to frame the courtyard, marble-topped tables ringed with black-lacquered rush-seated chairs beneath a reed canopy whose shadow geometry shifts with the afternoon light. The main infinity pool terrace is paved in honed limestone, teak sunloungers keeping the materiality grounded and warm against the deep blue of the Aegean beyond.

"Kalesma is a true gem in Mykonos. The design is stunning modern yet rooted in Cycladic tradition with private pools and views that make every moment feel cinematic. Service is flawless: attentive, discreet, and always a step ahead. Sunsets are unforgettable, and the restaurant delivers world-class dining in an intimate setting. If you’re looking for understated luxury and a place that feels effortlessly exclusive, Kalesma is unbeatable."

"The Kalesma Mykonos is one of the finest hotels that I have had the pleasure of staying in. The service was impeccable; the facilities and rooms were spacious, beautifully appointed, and very private; and the food was perfection. Really, nothing went even slightly askew from the moment we checked in until the moment we reluctantly had to leave. The hotel is located in a quieter part of Mykonos, about a 15 minute drive from the historic port area. The views are really gorgeous from seemingly all of the large, very private rooms (many of which have their own private pools and gardens). While the hotel is not directly on a beach, there are good beach options nearby, and it’s very easy for the hotel staff to really get you anywhere you need to be. Mykonos itself can be crowded, and has a variety of visitors, many whom are budget-minded and seeking to party. If you plan a visit to Mykonos, my advice would be to check into the Kalesma and spend most of your visit there! …It’s that wonderful!"
