3. Larq Self cleaning water bottle £99

While out enjoying the glorious Mykonos sunshine, it's important to stay hydrated. This digital water purification bottle by Larq uses LED light to self-clean, making it 10,000 times more hygienic than a regular reusable water bottle. Forget about buying single-use plastic bottles in resort, this handy 500ml bottle will help you do your bit for the environment and keep germs at bay, as well as keeping water cold for 24 hours.

5. Ventura raffia hat by Lack of Color £65

Sun-kissed skin is guaranteed after a Mykonos retreat, but if you feel the need for some time in the shade, why not try this stylish raffia hat by Lack of Color. This straw hat is from the Australian brand's latest collection called Bloom, which somewhat fittingly has been inspired by countryside escapes and lazy days by the pool.
