This beautiful home has been in our family for around 200 years and around the 1930s, just for a few years it became Mykonos’ very first hotel, due to its port location for visitors travelling to the nearby famous historical island of Delos. The hotel had 3 rooms and was named “Ξενοδοχείον Ελπίς“, “Hotel Elpis” or “Hotel of Hope“. This early tourism brought hope to the Mykonians, who were very poor for at least a century.

The building was constructed using traditional architectural techniques and materials of the time, including sand, rock and even seaweed. 

Every winter our family maintains this special “post card” traditional property, which now comprises 4 private self-contained apartments of varying sizes and annually plays host to many happy guests.
