The Myconian Collection is proud to announce the renaming of its latest boutique property on the sun-soaked island of Mykonos. Formerly known as Kensho, the hotel situated on the iconic Ornos Beach will now be known as Kove—a name that reflects its exceptional sense of place and celebrates its storied heritage.
The name Kove pays homage to the hotel’s enviable position on the narrow isthmus between two distinct beaches: Ornos, renowned for its serene waters and cosmopolitan atmosphere, and Korfos, a haven for windsurfing and kitesurfing enthusiasts. The new name also reflects the essence of a true cove—a serene haven that offers a rare sense of tranquillity and protection, providing guests with an intimate retreat that seamlessly blends seclusion with the vibrant allure of Mykonos.
A Rich Legacy of Hospitality
Owned and operated by a local family since the first hotel was built in 1979 by George and Elefteria Daktylides, the Myconian Collection’s 14 hotels and resorts are all perfectly placed to discover the delights of Mykonos, from lounging on the beach with a cocktail to dining in traditional tavernas or clifftop restaurants, wandering whitewashed churches and cobblestoned alleyways, dancing at decadent beach clubs, browsing designer boutiques, watching local life at fishing ports, or having a go at a raft of water sports. Hotel concierges can also arrange memorable experiences from horse riding on Fokos Beach or sunrise yoga to private yacht charters to the isle of Delos, home to UNESCO World Heritage-listed ruins.
After an outstanding debut season under the Myconian Collection banner, Kove marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter. Long a beloved destination for celebrities and discerning travellers, Kove continues its legacy of timeless elegance while elevating its offering of exclusive luxury experiences—anchored by the Myconian Collection’s hallmark of authentic, heartfelt island hospitality.
