Mykonos Panormos Villas + Fun News!

Minnesota is getting slammed with yet another winter storm (so much for my melting snow!) so I’m really needing this virtual escape today! Overlooking beautiful Panormos Bay on the Greek island of Mykonos is a private community of 11 luxurious homes called the Mykonos Panormos Villas. Shown above is the main residence, Anassa, and it’s absolutely stunning…downright heaven! I love the traditional whitewashed style, the breezy blue accents hinting at the spectacular water views, and all the fabulous outdoor areas! Everything is just picture perfect! Learn all about the villas and see more photos right here!

I wanted to leave you guys with some exciting news! Chris and I are thrilled to learn that at the end of August, we’re going to have a baby BOY!!! Let the planning begin!

  2. In spite of the beautiful houses you show, making us dream, the last news is always wonderful!! Congratulations for the baby!!!
    Hapiness for you all! 🙂 🙂

  8. Congratulations. Joyous news.

    If you have never been to Greece, let me say it really is this stunning. Mykonos is so beautiful {visit la maison de Catherine restaurant}.
    OIA on the island of Santorini is my favourite – I'd move there if not for my children.

    What is really special about their decor is that they keep it clean and simple. The tile stops and just blends into the concrete. They use natural stone in floor edges, backsplash area's, door trim. It is beauty everywhere you look.

  18. Congratulations!!! these are the best news ever!! yepeee!!! the villa is nice – can't talk bad because im greek too – but your news are soooo (i cant find the word) much important and bigger than any villa!!! very happy for you and your husband, hope it all goes well!!! sending positive thoughts! and huge smiles as well!!! well done my dear!!! :))

  19. First of all, Congratulations on that little boy bun in the oven. Second, the villas are so glorious. Breathtaking. I think I even like the showers with the seat.

  22. Congratulations of your upcoming miracle!

    On a side note, thank you for having such a wonderful BLOG. In my daily list of "reads" yours is always at the top of my list.

  26. Congratulations,
    Boys are so fun. I've got two, and from the minute the first one was born, my life's never been the same.

    So happy for you!

  27. Absolutely yummy house, love it all.

    Congratulations on your baby boy. Now that is what really matters, such a blessing.

  28. Congratulations! I have a son, and when I was pregnant with him quite a few people said to me, "Boys love their mamas!" I have to say that I've found that to be true!

  31. Awww!! Congratulations! As a mama of a 15-month-old boy, I'm a sucker for the little guys…they are so much fun! Congrats again!

  34. YUM that house is SO beautiful, the outside area's…..ahhhhhhhhhh…those shutters are to die for! LOVE! OH so excited for you, and YEP cannot wait to see that nursery, it will be magnificant I'm sure!!!!!

  35. Congratulations on the bambino! Little boys are so sweet, I'm sure you and Chris are going to be so proud to have a little guy around, and maybe one day he will be a big brother!

    This house in Greece is drop-over-and-die worthy. Perfection in every way. If that top bedroom were mine, I'd never ever leave it!

  36. Hi Erin,
    Congratulations on your wonderful news! We'll be looking for a photo of your adorable baby boy in a turquoise onesie!

    PS: This posting from Greece is fabulous. The light in there Greek islands makes turquoise and white glow in ways I've never seen anywhere else. These beautiful rooms are a perfect example.

  38. Oh, how I've dreamed of ever going to Mykonos or Santorini…beautiful light and color in the Greek Islands; thanks for bringing it a little bit closer today.

    Erin, you post tirelessly and I enjoy everything you share with us; I, too, love turquoise blues. I've picked up so many good ideas from your blog posts and I love your enthusiasm. I stumbled onto Jane Coslick from you and now I want to go to Tybee Island SO BADly!!!

    But, listen now, you've got a sweet baby boy coming your way and your focus/energies are going to be on Mommiehood, so I'm totally going to understand if the blog takes a backseat; priorities, okay?!! In the meantime, turquoise is so going to be a perfect color for a baby's room. I've seen turquoise accents with darker (chocolate) woods (crib, changing table, rocker, etc.) and it makes a nice combination that's not girly. Have fun with your nursery and give us a peek…

    Happy congrats to you and your husband for your summer surprise; I can see a turquoise parka when he's six months old!

  47. So happy for you!!! Blue and boy…perfect. Today I'm on a search for "tough" pants for my seven year old boy, who can't have a pair of pants last one month before they have gigantic holes :). If I find out anything wonderful, I'll let you know. You'll find this information very valuable in a few years. Happy days ahead…..

  48. Congratulations! Boys are lovely and they like turquoise (at least my 3 year old likes :).

    Thank you for the blog, it is absolutely the best interior design blog out there.

  52. I've been a daily reader forever, but the last week was really busy so I'm just catching up. Can't believe I'm just now seeing the news about baby boy! How exciting! Congratulations 🙂

  54. How wonderful! You saved the best for last:-) I'm sure you'll find some great turquoise baby clothes! Thanks for all the visual candy you give us <3

  62. That white canopy over white is so cute, I like how it is decorated just above the bed and is not on the side which might hinder the foot traffic. I love all of these sleek decorations thanks for sharing.
