SAN GIORGIO MYKONOS IS BACK
AND HERE TO STAY

Berlin, April 2, 2013 – A jewel in the crown of the Greek islands, Mykonos is known for its white washed houses, long sandy beaches and wild summer night parties. Thanks to a successful collaboration between Design Hotels™, Thomas Heyne and Mario Hertel – the creative minds behind Mykonos’ infamous Paradise Club, those looking for a unique holiday experience now have another reason to visit the island. What started out in May 2012 as a six-month hospitality experiment, is not only back – due to its huge success SAN GIORGIO MYKONOS is here to stay! The hotel will reopen in May for its second season as a full-fledged Design Hotels™ member. New this summer: a fresh restaurant concept and a shuttle service plus VIP entrance to the Paradise Club.

Check in at San Giorgio and instantly feel like you’re stepping into the beach house of a favorite friend. But, imagine that friend doesn’t just own the 33-room house with its private beach, but also one of the most well-known clubs in Europe. Days are spent relaxing in the open-air lounge around the pool or on your own private veranda. In the evenings, enjoy the tranquility of the new palm tree garden, watching the sun set into the Mediterranean Sea. Accompanied by chill-out music, colorful pillows, hammocks, carpets, lanterns and candles, hang out with world famous DJ’s like Bob Sinclar or Martin Solveig. These celebrities are not just friends of the hotel – they perform with stars such as Snoop Dog, LMFAO and Carl Cox at the Paradise Club.

Access All Areas
For those who want a taste of the more hedonistic side to the island, the new club package is available to all who stay at the hotel. Threading a sense of sophistication throughout their entire stay on Mykonos, guests are provided with a regular shuttle service to and from the Paradise Club, taking clubbers from door-to-door in style. The celebrity-style treatment doesn’t stop there, making sure that partygoers don’t spend their night waiting in-line VIP entrance to the club is also included.

Open Plan And Spirited
Additions to the hotel include a new restaurant concept – “Cantina” a community-centric 30-seater restaurant. Where honest, fresh from the market ingredients are used to create delicious Mediterranean dishes with a twist. The manager of the restaurant Ivan Ottaviani, a well-established figure on the island, brings many years of experience to “Cantina” and alongside the culinary offerings Ottaviani has also introduced an outstanding selection of wines to accompany the exotic flavors of the island.
