tAPPinG into the “rizes” [roots] of this island to give you an authentic experience of Mykonos past, this
farmstead takes you back. traditional houses, farmland and utility spaces frame the experience: wood oven, chicken
coop, olive grove, wine press – everything is functional and nothing is for show. inspired by his father, Giannis,
nikos Zouganelis and his family chose to partake in the simpler, purer way of life of their ancestors, and share the
experience with the world. they bake bread, weave fabrics, make fresh cheese, tend to chickens and donkeys…
they also welcome visitors as dear friends, inviting them to live like a Mykonian, break bread with the family,
and get their hands dirty if they want, discovering a pure life before technology.
