Why visit Nammos Mykonos?

Located on Psarou Beach, Nammos Mykonos is a nonstop party. Upon arrival, you quickly realize that it’s not that easy to score a coveted sun lounger. You need to pay the concierge, and even then, you will be waiting for a bit. At the height of the summer, the lines are intense. Trust me, I am not exaggerating. While calling ahead to make a reservation is advisable, sometimes it’s best just to show up first thing in the morning. Don’t be shy about tipping the beach supervisor, as this always seems to move things along.

Nammos Mykonos is extremely popular, so the earlier you arrive, the better chance you have of getting in. And, it doesn’t hurt to dress the part, think upscale Euro with a bohemian sensibility.

The beach at Nammos Mykonos

Protected by a cove, the waters of Psarou Beach are typically calm. Nammos Mykonos is accessed by as many yachts as it is people driving over from their resort. The powdery sand, crystal clear water and glamorous vibe make this spot the ideal location for spending the day swimming and sunbathing. Bonus, you have a waitstaff that delivers trendy cocktails directly to your sun chaise.

The funny thing is that you’re never quite sure exactly when or how, but parties materialize out of thin air. All of a sudden, you look around and notice that everyone is throwing back copious amounts of champagne. Unsurprisingly, a party breaks out. This atmosphere evolves organically at Nammos Mykonos, and it’s a blast. 

The restaurant

One of my favorite things about Nammos Mykonos is that it’s not just an upscale beach club filled with pretty people. It’s so much more, because the food is exquisite. In the midst of such a decadent place, I incorrectly assumed that the restaurant would be an afterthought. I was dead wrong. It’s awesome.

Given the proximity to the water, there is an emphasis on fresh seafood. Additionally, you see the influence of Italian food throughout Greece, and the restaurant at Nammos Mykonos is no exception. My pasta was nothing short of amazing. Sometimes simple ingredients prepared perfectly is exactly what you want out of a meal.

Afterwards, literally everyone was up dancing on the table. I’m not quite sure how this happened, but it was ridiculous, in the best possible way. There’s just something insatiable about the spirit of Nammos that makes you smile and step (or dance) outside of your comfort zone

Nights at Nammos

If it’s during the week, expect the party to wrap up by 8.00 pm. However, if it’s the weekend, things often keep going until midnight. You might want to bring some extra clothes with you, as hanging out in a wet bathing suit doesn’t feel great. However, sticking to sandals is fine. Chances are that you will be dancing in the sand at some point.

Also, check out the Nammos Mykonos party schedule. For these events, you will typically want to wear real clothing when you show up, not a bikini.

Overall

Clearly, I am a big fan of this haute spot that’s a touch reminiscent of the Balearic Islands. Sometimes there is a bit of an attitude, but most of the staffers are lovely, especially if you tip well. A great place to party with an incredible beach, Nammos Mykonos bewitches visitors with a unique star quality. I can’t suggest this beach club enough. My thought is this, go for the picture perfect water that is clad in every shade of blue. And, stay for the party, because Nammos is a scene!

Please note, I was not paid for this review. I was just incredibly smitten with Nammos Mykonos.
