My Favorite Airbnb: A Dreamy Home on Milos With Sunset Views of the Aegean

"A charming cliffside town located on the northwestern part of Milos, offering stunning 270-degree views over the Bay of Adamantas. Known for its traditional Cycladic style, whitewashed houses, and vibrant yet not overly touristy atmosphere."

Popular hike to watch sunset. Many visitors making the hike up. Get there a bit early to get a nice spot to sit

Stunning view of Milos, perfect for the sunset. Might get a bit crowded in high season, I would recommend to arrive before. You do have to go up a few stairs, but it’s not too hard to go up. Be careful going down, can be slippery some rocks.

The hike to the top can be strenuous if you’re wearing non hiking clothing - which most are for the pics. Other than that, the view is spectacular and the view of Plaka is pristine from this viewpoint.

Must-see sunset place. Just don’t forget a few beers!! We made the mistake unfortunately. Even during sunset it’s a hot walk upstairs but the views are impeccable

The best view over Milos! But there is no need to go up to the top. Stay below the castle where this one house is, you can sit on the stone wall, get a drink from the bar next to it. Enjoy!

Short steep hike with breathtaking view of the blue hues of the Mediterranean … special spot to visit while on the isle of Milos!
