Last month in Mykonos, the captivating Anandes Hotel opened its doors to visitors from around the world, immersing guests in an ethereal refuge of Greek hospitality. Offering nourishing vistas of the Aegean Sea, the luxurious boutique property additionally debuts a La Petite Maison restaurant, energized by the lush gastronomy of the Fresh Riviera. Ideally situated on a picturesque hill, the independent property brims with 42 elegant rooms, as well as spacious suites with uber-private plunge pools, a transformative spa, and a lively poolside terrace set under vivacious blue skies.

Celebrating the Beauty of Greek Light
“Studio Bonarchi’s vision for Anandes Hotel celebrates the beauty of Greek light, conceived as the most precious gift for a place that stands out uniquely above Mykonos town,” said Vangelis Bonios, Architect and Founder of Studio Bonarchi. “Organic forms dressed in the luminous white of the Cycladic idiom contrasted with authentic natural materials in dark shades compose spaces in a poetic dialogue with the view of the blue sea.”

Poolside Relaxation and Seasonal Dining at La Petite Maison
In the vibrant open air, poolside relaxation and seasonal dining unfolds with the utmost attention to detail. La Petite Maison takes full advantage of the glory of outdoor dining, deftly created by interior design studio Sagrada, founded by David d’Almada. Compelling details echoing Greek mythology whisk guests away to another time and place whether during the sun-drenched day or the moonlit night.
The restaurant’s delicious poolside dining menu weaves Greek flavors with a delicious zest from the French Riviera, offering breakfast delights like French Toast with Fresh Berries and Mascarpone Chantilly or Tomato Tart with Feta Cheese and Basil.
From afternoon until evening, starting gems like Sea Bass Ceviche with Truffle Ponzu, and main dishes ranging from Wagyu Sandwich with Focaccia to Grilled Prawns with Pita Bread will surely delight.
