BACK TO

THE ROOTS

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.

AUTHENTICITY AND PASSION
Step back in time to a purer, less fast-paced era
at a farmstead where everything is done the
traditional,time-honoured Mykonos way.
