Situated above the blue waters of the Aegean, San Marco occupies a coastal site in Houlakia Bay that affords many accommodation types with sea views while remaining conveniently close to Mykonos Town, approximately four kilometres away. The hotel is a suitable base for guests who wish to split their time between seaside relaxation and exploring the island’s restaurants and nightlife. Shuttle transfers to and from town are available, and the concierge can arrange transport, private boat trips and other logistics for guests planning island excursions.

The resort provides an array of guest facilities. A large sea-water pool forms the social heart of the property, complete with sun loungers, parasols and a poolside bar serving a broad menu. Two restaurants cover casual all-day dining and a boutique fine-dining experience, while the San Marco Spa offers tailored treatments including massages, facials and hammam steam baths together with hair and nail services. Practical amenities include a gymnasium, a conference centre, free Wi-Fi, complimentary parking and a 24-hour reception and concierge to coordinate dining reservations, tours and private hires.

Accommodation at San Marco emphasizes light, open spaces and thoughtful fittings. Standard and deluxe rooms feature private balconies or terraces and are furnished in a clean Cycladic style with whitewashed walls, exposed beams and select artwork. Suites extend the living space with sitting areas and sofas that can accommodate additional guests, and several of the sea-facing suites and villas have terraces or verandas designed to maximise the island views. All rooms are equipped with modern conveniences such as air conditioning, satellite television, a mini fridge and in-room safes, while larger villa options include kitchenettes and private pools for greater independence.
