Mystic Villas in Koufonisia overlooking the beach and port of this “Small Cyclades” island

The Best Hotels in Koufonisia are primarily located in Ano Koufonisi (Upper), one of the smallest Greek islands. Koufonisia consists of basically two islands: Ano Koufonisi (upper) and Kato Koufonisi (lower), and they are both part of the group of islands also known as “Small Cyclades” or “Lesser Cyclades”, which is a group of pretty small islands, south of Naxos. The island has seen extreme growth in the last decade, with excellent small boutique hotels and luxurious villas for those looking for a quiet Greek island in the Cyclades.
