And it's located inside a buzzing new beach club.
Those looking to soak in the sun on the Greek island of Mykonos can now do so in Europe’s biggest beachfront pool.
The sprawling 22,600-square-foot saltwater pool is located inside SantAnna,
a new beach club that opened on July 5, where guests are invited to
spend the day taking in the scenery of Paraga Beach and the Aegean Sea.

Created by the minds behind the Nice-n-Easy restaurant group,
SantAnna offers visitors perks that include everything from two organic
restaurants and three bars to a variety of designer boutiques and a
spa.
There’s also a gym, a salon, and some 28,000 square feet of beachside lounges and cabanas.
“Mykonos is known the world over
as a vibrant summer destination amongst jetsetters and discerning
travelers, but we found a need to cater to a more diverse and inclusive
clientele,” Dimitris Christoforidis of Nice-n-Easy said in a press
release.

“We want to offer an equally
lively atmosphere but in a more laid back, chic environment, not only
for revelers, but for families, groups and single guests alike,” he
added.
That’s why guests can reserve
features like the space’s “VIP Islands,” which are private subterranean
lounges where guests can relax and even enjoy spa services, while a
line-up curated by broadcast journalist and DJ Arthur Chi’en will keep
the party going all summer long.
When it comes to food, visitors
can choose from a Mediterranean restaurant serving international and
Greek wines, house-made elixirs, and seafood dishes like whole grilled
fish, or a 45-seater sushi and raw bar.

The venue also pays homage to
its natural surroundings and Greek origins, using stones found on the
island throughout the design.

SantAnna offers bespoke
concierge services for guests that include everything from island tours
and private transportation to helicopter services and private water
taxis.
Entry is free, though you'll need to reserve a lounger or cabana if you're interested in having a place to sit.
Rentals for cabanas and loungers range from 20 to 500 euros (roughly $23-574) depending on their location.
The venue will also host events
during the summer, when there will be separate pricing, while VIP island
rentals are 500 euros (roughly $574).
SantAnna operates on a seasonal basis from May to October.
