When 400,000 people vote… perhaps they’re onto something.
The readers of the top travel magazine in the world, Condé Nast, were asked to vote one their favorite travel-related categories— everything from favorite hotels and cruise lines to cities and spas.
There was also a category for islands which was broken down by continent.
Drum roll please…
Voted Best Island in Europe in 2018 by more than 400,000 readers of Condé Nast magazine:
Mykonos.
Also known as Mykonoooooooooos. Also known as the Island of the winds. And finally, also known as the island so many love, and so many love to hate.
*Full disclosure: Follow my Mykonosguy profile on Instagram for an eclectic collection of images from the island, curated by yours truly. And fun fact— The Pappas Post evolved from my very first blog mykonosguy.com

Since you’re here… I have a small favor to ask.
More and more people than ever before are reading The Pappas Post and despite increasing costs to maintain the site and provide you with the quality content that you deserve, I will never “force” you to pay for our website or add a paywall.

But at the same time I’m asking those who frequent the site to chip in and help keep it both high quality— and free. We’ve implemented a “free-will” annual subscription for those who want to support our efforts.
