Introducing MGallery Hotel Collection’s New Greek Aegean Escape

MGallery Hotel Collection, a distinguished portfolio of storied hotels within the Accor Group, invites guests to a new Grecian retreat, Kove Hotel & Spa Mykonos – MGallery Collection. This opening signifies MGallery Collection’s commitment to offering intimate sanctuaries in the world’s most captivating destinations, providing a strategic foothold in Mykonos’ thriving luxury market. The property reveals a more intimate side of Mykonos, offering a sun-soaked private beach and the quiet rhythm of the Cyclades.

Set between Ornos and Korfos, the 35-room property occupies a rare position between two of Mykonos’ most distinctive coastlines. On one side, Ornos offers calm, sheltered waters ideal for swimming; on the other, Korfos is shaped by wind and movement, known for its open horizon and dynamic energy. This duality defines the experience at Kove Hotel & Spa Mykonos – MGallery Collection. Being just minutes from Mykonos Town, the hotel maintains a quieter rhythm, centered on privacy, light, and a more considered sense of retreat.

Maud Bailly, CEO of Sofitel, Sofitel Legend, MGallery Collection & Emblems said: “The launch of Kove Hotel & Spa Mykonos – MGallery Collection is a significant milestone for us, not just in expanding our footprint in Greece, but in deepening our commitment to authentic, story-led hospitality. This property perfectly embodies MGallery Collection’s ethos of celebrating the unique character of its destination, and we are incredibly proud to partner with the Daktylides family, who have seamlessly blended heritage and heartfelt passion for more than 45 years. Their profound understanding of Mykonian culture and dedication to exceptional service is invaluable, ensuring Kove Mykonos offers a truly immersive and heartfelt experience.”

A Myconian Legacy

Kove Hotel & Spa Mykonos is part of the Daktylides family’s long-standing presence on the island, a hospitality journey that began in 1979 with a modest bed and breakfast founded by George and Elefteria Daktylides. Over the decades, the family has played a defining role in the evolution of Mykonos as an international destination, steadily building a portfolio of hotels that balance scale with a strong sense of identity.

Today, the new generation continues to shape that legacy, combining deep local knowledge with a forward-looking approach to hospitality.

Marios Daktylides, General Manager at Myconian K Hotels said: “Kove reflects a more personal way of experiencing Mykonos, one that is quieter, more intuitive, and closely connected to the island itself. Joining MGallery Collection allows us to share that perspective more widely, while preserving the character and sense of place that have always defined what we do.”

Private mornings by the Aegean Sea

With 35 rooms and suites, the property is designed with a residential sensibility that adapts to different styles of travel. More compact rooms follow a minimalist approach, suited to guests who spend their days between sea, pool, and island exploration, while larger suites extend into generous terraces with private Jacuzzis or plunge pools.

The experience naturally appeals to a diverse, international clientele, from cosmopolitan travellers and luxury seekers to beach lovers, couples, honeymooners, and families with adolescents. The layout allows for both shared moments and privacy, making it equally suited to quiet escapes and more social stays.

Dining unfolds with a focus on seasonality and locality. At eNa, the hotel’s signature restaurant, menus are shaped by daily sourcing and a philosophy of simplicity, often centered around fresh catch and ingredients drawn from the surrounding region. The rooftop terrace, overlooking both Ornos and Korfos, becomes a natural gathering point throughout the day, particularly at sunset, when the shifting Aegean light defines the atmosphere.

Wellbeing is centered around the Cave Spa, a secluded, stone-carved environment designed for stillness and restoration. Wellness treatments draw on natural elements and traditional techniques, complemented by outdoor spaces for yoga and meditation.

First Light of Delos

Every MGallery Collection hotel invites guests to capture its signature M Moment – a meaningful and memorable experience designed to spark curiosity and broaden the mind and soul.

Before Mykonos stirs, guests are invited to set sail on a private dawn passage to Delos, sacred birthplace of Apollo and Artemis. From the nearby dock, the boat glides across an Aegean washed in gold. Guided by a private historian, guests can explore the island’s silent ruins before the first visitors arrive. As sunrise touches the Terrace of the Lions, ancient stones awaken in radiant light. A Cycladic breakfast awaits by the sea: fresh bread, island honey, seasonal fruits, and local delicacies. A rare encounter where myth, history, and the serenity of the Aegean become one.

Guests staying with MGallery have access to ALL Accor, a booking platform and loyalty program offering a range of rewards, services and experiences during and beyond each stay. Opening rates start from EUR 272 per room, per night, with bookings now available at all.com.

MGallery’s Strategic Expansion in Greece

With over 125 boutique hotels worldwide, MGallery Collection continues its selective expansion in Greece – an icon of culture, coastline, and island-laced escapism – bringing the brand’s signature of story-led design and meaningful, memory-making stays to the Aegean.

Building on its presence with Athens Capital Hotel – MGallery Collection, NIKO Seaside Resort Crete – MGallery Hotel Collection, and Athens Capital Suites – MGallery Collection , the future opening of Nírema Hotel & Spa Samos – MGallery Collection and today, Kove Hotel & Spa Mykonos – MGallery Collection extend the collection’s footprint beyond the capital and into the Greek islands. This momentum continues with four additional hotels already in the pipeline, including Chania and in the wider Athens region, further reinforcing MGallery’s ambition to anchor distinctive properties across Greece’s most culturally and geographically compelling destinations.
