Cyclades luxury real estate and tourism trends

Overview

The Cyclades islands are experiencing complex economic shifts within their luxury real estate and tourism sectors. A Geoaxis study indicates that luxury villa prices across five islands—Mykonos, Santorini, Paros, Serifos, and Kea—have risen approximately 30% since 2017. Mykonos maintains the highest median asking price at €16,790 per square metre, followed by Santorini and Paros. While foreign demand drives this escalation, factors such as over-tourism, infrastructure strain, and geopolitical uncertainty may impact future growth.

In the second quarter of 2026, tourism revenues for accommodations and catering showed divergent trends. Santorini saw an increase in accommodation revenues, reaching approximately €124.43 million, though catering revenues remained nearly stagnant. Conversely, Mykonos reported a slight decline in both accommodation and catering revenues compared to the previous year. Other islands, including Paros, Naxos, and Milos, reported growth in accommodation revenues.
