Mykonos magic: Greek idyll for Shakira and Gerard


June 29, 2011

Shakira and Spanish footballer star Gerard Pique have been unwinding on a Greek paradise isle. The Latin pop sensation and her 6ft 3in beau flew in to Mykonos on a Lear Jet and immediately embarked on a four-day vacation of relaxation and fun. On arrival, the lovebirds were whisked away by chauffered car to the Kivotos luxury hotel, in Ornos, run by entrepreneur Filippos Michopoulos.  

Their accommodation was a two-storey luxury suite where they spent time recovering from the flight, relaxing and taking full advantage of the private swimming pool.

The visit came as a surprise for the islanders who had no idea that the famous duo were coming. But within hours the news was out, and when the couple finally emerged form their hotel, tourists and islanders alike were treated to romantic scenes of them strolling through Chora, the main town on Mykonos.

Holding hands and kissing in the streets of the picturesque Matogiannia quarter, Shakira and her man showed that their romance is still going strong. Low-key and natural as ever, the couple came alone with no assistants or bodyguards. In the afternoons, they would while away time on the beach, and Gerard would try his hand at jet skiing. He also treated his girl to a getaway to Delos Island, the mythical birthplace of the god Apollo, aboard the hotel's luxury wooden yacht, supplied exclusively to VIP guests.
