Where to stay in Mykonos without a car

Use Chora when first-night dinner, bars, shops, and late returns should stay simple.

Use Little Venice or the old port when the harbor edge and SeaBus logic matter.

Use Rohari or Megali Ammos when you want a stronger hotel but still need town close.

Choose Agios Ioannis when the hotel and beach rhythm should slow the stay down.

Avoid relying on taxis for every spontaneous move during peak pressure.

Make Psarou or Paraga one deliberate day, not the default commute.

Do not book a remote-feeling hotel without confirming how dinners and late returns will actually work.

Do not assume bus frequency, taxi supply, or SeaBus timing will match a generic itinerary snippet.

Do not make a no-car trip depend on multiple cross-island moves in one day.

Check the KTEL departure point as well as the time: Fabrika serves the airport and several south-coast routes; the operator currently directs Ano Mera, Kalafatis and Elia services to the New Peripheral road.

SeaBus connects the New Port and Chora; its published timetable is seasonal and later departures are uneven. Check the exact stop and last return instead of assuming a boat every half hour all night.
