Mykonos climate is a typical Mediterranean climate, and yet in some way a specific one. Summers are very hot and sunny, and winters are chilly and rainy. The hottest month is July and the coldest are January and February. The only "discomfort" are the winds, and they can be also very strong in the summer period. The air currents which don't even stop during the summer significantly reduce the impact of high temperature. Symbolic winds are meltemi that blow from the north and usually in
the afternoon hours, and they are typical for Mykonos island...
All of this should be the "normal weather conditions". But
as the weather on our entire planet Earth is disturbed, at the
beginning of October we had: constant winds (fortunately we were escaping
to the opposite side of the island) and more than five days of rain. While
smart Englishmen came to breakfast in winter jackets and jeans, I was
"proudly" walking in my denim mini skirt. Luckily
the friendly staff of Bill & Coo hotel always had some saved blanket
(and softest one, lol!) for me during the breakfast time... And luckily the weather improved after those few days...
Klima Mikonosa je tipicna za mediteransko podneblje, a opet na neki nacin i specificna. Leta su vrlo topla i suncana, a zime prohladne i kisne. Najtopliji mesec je juli, a najhladniji su januar i februar. Jedina "nelagodnost" jesu vetrovi, koji mogu biti vrlo jaki cak i tokom letnjeg perioda. Ta vazdusna strujanja koja ni leti ne prestaju znatno umanjuju uticaj visoke temperature. Simbolicna vrsta vetrova jesu meltemije koji duvaju sa severa i obicno u popodnevnim casovima, i karakteristicni su upravo za ostrvo Mikonos...
Sve navedeno bi trebalo da budu "normalni klimatski uslovi". Medjutim kako su vremenske prilike na citavoj nasoj planeti Zemlji poremecene, mi smo pocetkom oktobra meseca imali sledece: konstantne vetrove (srecom bezali smo na suprotnu stranu ostrva) i vise od pet dana kise. Dok su pametni Englezi dolazili na dorucak u zimskim jaknama i farmerkama, ja sam se "ponosno" setkala u teksas mini suknjici. Srecom ljubazno osoblje Bill & Coo hotela je uvek imalo spremljeno cebence (i to najmekse, haha!) za mene tokom dorucka... I srecom vreme se popravilo nakon tih par dana...

One of the most typical symbols of the luxury when it
comes to Bill & Coo Suites and Lounge, is definitely the infinity pool. But to distance myself immediately: I don't speak about its size, depth, water color, shape, etc.. Except of being "infinity" and having a beautiful view on the bay and
the sea, anything else related to this pool is not so spectacular... Except for one thing: its look when the dark evening hours come. In
one second it turns from an "ugly duckling into a beautiful swan," and it
looks like someone sprinkled a million shining stars over the calm water's surface... It is this magic that makes Bill
& Coo lounge bar to be one of the favorite places for the evening relaxation and cocktails, on the whole island...
Jedan od najkarakteristicnijih simbola luksuza kada se radi o Bill & Coo Suites and Lounge, je definitivno "infinity" bazen. Ali da se ogradim odmah: ne spominjem njegovu velicinu, dubinu, boju vode, oblik i sl. Osim sto je infinity i sto pruza predivan pogled na zaliv i more, nista drugo vezano za ovaj bazen nije toliko spektakularno... Izuzev jedne stvari: njegovog izgleda kada dodju vecernji casovi i padne mrak. U jednoj sekundi se pretvori iz "ruznog paceta u divnog labuda", i izgleda kao da je neko posuo milion sjajnih zvezdica po mirnoj povrsini vode... Upravo ta carolija cini da Bill & Coo lounge bar bude jedno od omiljenih mesta za vecernje opustanje uz koktel, i to na citavom ostrvu...

As I mentioned in the previous post, Bill & Coo Suites and Lounge has 24 suites of different looks and content. The options are: classic suites (sea view), deluxe suites, deluxe honeymoon suite, superior suite, executive suite, Bill & Coo Suites. All are bigger than 38m2, and some of them also have a private outdoor swimming pool, private Jacuzzi, spacious verandas, lounge area...
The first few days due to the hotel's overbooking, we stayed in the suite with a beautiful sea view (you'll see a few pictures
below), very close to the pool. After that we were "upgraded": room number 216!
Kao sto sam vec spomenula u prethodnom postu, Bill & Coo Suites and Lounge raspolaze sa 24 apartmana, razlicitog izgleda i sadrzaja. Na raspolaganju su: classic suites (sa pogledom na more), deluxe suites,
honeymoon deluxe suite, superior suite, executive suite, Bill & Coo suite. Svi su veci od 38m2, a neki od njih imaju i privatan bazen, privatan djakuzi, velike terase, lounge prostor...
Mi smo prvih par dana, zbog prebukiranosti hotela, bili smesteni u apartmanu sa divnim pogledom na more (videcete par slika u nastavku), blizu bazena. Nakon toga smo bili "apgrejdovani": soba broj 216!

One of the most famous Mykonos symbols are the windmills! Their
importance and popularity are linked to the 16th century, when the
island played an important role in the production of wheat and bread. Easy
access to the port, the geographical location of the island, and the
presence of winds throughout the year, have increased the financial
value of windmills in the period between the 17th and 19th century. After
the First World War, due to the technological development, they lost that worth, yet gain a new value as a colossal monuments of Mykonos.
Kato Myloi is the most famous group of windmills. It is located on a small hill southwest of Chora overlooking the sea. Out of the former ten, only seven windmills exist today, but each equally attracts the attention of tourists...
Jedan od najpoznatijih simbola Mikonosa jesu vetrenjace! Njihov znacaj i popularnost se vezuje za 16-ti vek, kada je ostrvo imalo vaznu ulogu u proizvodnji psenice i hleba. Lak pristup luci, geografski polozaj ostrva, kao i prisustvo vetrova tokom citave godine, samo su povecale finansijsku vrednost vetrenjaca u periodu izmedju 17-og i 19-og veka. Nakon Prvog svetskog rata, usled razvoja tehnologije, one gube taj znacaj, ali sticu novu vrednost kao monumentalni spomenici Mikonosa.
Kato Myloi jeste najpoznatija grupa vetrenjaca. Nalazi se na malom brdu jugozapadno od Hore i gleda na more. Od nekadasnjih deset danas je sacuvano sedam vetrenjaca, ali svaka podjednako privlaci paznju turista...
When it comes to the food, I can not say that it was easy for me in Mykonos. Due to my sensitive digestive system, I was barely finding something that wouldn't give me problems... Mykonos island is in every aspect a perfect location for all lovers of the "gourmet" food
and specific tastes, but for me it's a no-no...
Mamalouka restaurant is, I can freely say, a gem that we discovered (unfortunately) three days before the end of the holiday. The only place on the entire island, where I ate a decent and really tasty portion of grilled vegetables!
This restaurant is crowded during the season! Our
advantage is that we were in the low season, and we literally had the whole
restaurant only for us! Very friendly atmosphere blended into
the natural surrounding, with understated and visually pleasant decoration.
As for service, best remarks!
Ne mogu da se pohvalim da mi je bilo lako na Mikonosu, sto se ishrane tice. S obzirom na moj osetljivi digestivni sistem, jedva sam pronalazila ono sto mi ne bi stvaralo probleme... Mikonos ostrvo je u svakom pogledu savrsena lokacija za sve ljubitelje "gourmet" hrane i specificnih ukusa, ali za mene je no-no...
Mamalouka restoran je, mogu slobodno reci, dragulj koji smo otkrili (na zalost) 3 dana pred kraj odmora. Jedino mesto na citavom ostrvu gde sam pojela pristojnu i zaista ukusnu porciju grilovanog povrca!!
Ovaj restoran je krcat tokom sezone! Nasa prednost je sto smo bili u vansezoni te smo bukvalno imali ceo restoran samo za nas! Jako prijatan ambijent uklopljen u prirodnu celinu, sa nenametljivom i vizuelno ugodnom dekoracijom. Sto se tice usluge, cista desetka!
