NAMASTE Boutique Apartments Mykonos

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to NAMASTE Boutique Apartments Mykonos in Tourlos, I’ll be honest — I wasn’t expecting much from a three-star place. But you know what? This little gem completely changed my perspective on what a boutique property can offer. The whitewashed building has that classic Cycladic charm, but there’s something more polished about it than your typical island accommodation. The staff greeted me with genuine warmth, and I could immediately tell this wasn’t going to be just another cookie-cutter hotel experience.

Location & Getting Around

Tourlos is actually a smart choice if you want to be close to Mykonos Town without dealing with the chaos. You’re literally a five-minute drive from the main port, which means easy access to ferries if you’re island-hopping. What I really appreciated was being able to walk to some excellent tavernas that tourists rarely find — the locals in Tourlos know their seafood. The bus to Mykonos Town runs regularly, and honestly, it’s kind of nice to retreat back to this quieter area after a night out in the madness of Little Venice.

The Apartment Experience

My apartment was way more spacious than I expected, with a proper kitchenette that actually had everything I needed. I mean, you can’t cook a five-course meal, but making coffee in the morning and preparing light meals? Absolutely doable. The design strikes this nice balance between modern comfort and traditional Greek island aesthetics — white walls, pops of blue, and these lovely wooden accents. The bed was surprisingly comfortable (sometimes you roll the dice with smaller properties), and the air conditioning worked perfectly, which is crucial during those sweltering August days.

Amenities & Daily Life

There’s no fancy spa or elaborate pool complex here, but what they do have works really well. The small pool area is perfect for cooling off, and it never felt crowded during my stay. Parking was included, which saved me a headache since finding spots in Mykonos can be a nightmare. The Wi-Fi was solid throughout the property — I actually managed to get some work done from the little terrace. They don’t have a full restaurant, but there’s a lovely breakfast setup that feels more personal than those massive hotel buffets.

Why Guests Love It

I can see why couples rate this place so highly — it has that intimate, romantic vibe without being overly precious about it. The 9.1 rating makes perfect sense when you consider the value proposition here. You’re getting apartment-style independence with hotel-level service, in a location that’s both accessible and peaceful. The staff remembers your name, the space feels like your own little Greek retreat, and you’re not paying those insane Mykonos Town prices. For travelers who want to experience the island without the tourist circus, this place hits the sweet spot between comfort, location, and authenticity.
