Scorpios isspearheading the cultural shift from night clubbing to afternoon ease – taking all-day-lounging, al fresco dining and sunset marvelingto a holistic new level.“We wanted the essence of Scorpios to mirror the evolution of Mykonos itself. There’s an overall movement taking place here – theisland is growing up, and so are the tastes of those spending time here.” —Thomas HeynePerched on a ridge between two stunning sandy beaches, hugged by the wild wonder of a protected nature reserve, Scorpios is the settingfor a feast of the senses.
The sun-blessed peninsula offers panoramic views over the crystal clear Aegean Sea, with the precious luxury ofan eastern sunrise and the day’s closing sunset over the southern cliffs. Seaside afternoons can be soaked up from eitherthe 60-meter-long private beach with 30 sunbeds, or the 100-meter-long Paraga Beach, with its 70 sunbeds. As one of the very rare beachlocations on Mykonos offering uninterrupted views across the open sea, horizons of azure blue mix with the yellows, golds and pinks of thegenerous Cycladic sun.
