Winter in Mykonos

January and the message was received ... the heart of winter ... cold days and long frosty nights ... even here on the island of Mykonos ... Always adopting an optimistic mindset as spring approaches, this month invites us to make new plans and sort out things and situations.. this kind of sorting out brings...

Melomakarona, the taste of Christmas

The birth of Jesus Christ, the Christmas manger, the Christmas tree, the school events, the angels, the three wise men obviously attracted the most attention, but above all the sweet anticipation of Santa Claus. When does he visit your home? On Christmas or New Year’s Eve? And all these ‘were sprinkled’ with plenty of icing sugar, honey and walnuts in every bite of the most traditional Greek Ch...

Tinos island and….honey

Looking at the view from Ariston every morning, where the blue of the Aegean always enchants, one can see a hill that looms without being able to distinguish* whether it belongs to Mykonos or another island.This island is called Tinos and is located a stone's throw away from Mykonos (about 15 minutes by boat). <img class="alignnone wp-image-24...

The ‘art de la table’

When I first heard the phrase art de la table years ago, I tried to figure out what it means.. to which type of art does it refer to? And how is this related to the food taste? And what does it happen when the style outweighs the food experience? As a lover of aesthetics , I realized that art de la table is a purely personal stylistic affair that conforms to specific serving r...

Earrings of Mykonos

A jewel constitutes an important part of every civilization and is the reason why we admire lots of them in the museums. The Cycladic civilization was amongst the first three civilizations in ancient time. Delos is always the living proof and a visit to this special island will convince you upon your arrival there. Archeologists are able to collect important information regarding the lifestyle ...

Little churches around Mykonos

It has been fourteen years now in Mykonos, and I still remember myself wondering about these numerous, little churches around the island. Therefore, it makes sense why you have been asking me about how many churches there are on the island. There should be around 1500 and even more. <img class="alignnone wp-image-2295" src="https://www.aethermykonos.com/app/uploads/sites/49/202...

Spring & Easter on the island

Spring is finally here... Spring and Easter days mean a lot to me and I am glad that Easter preparation has been part of Aether Boutique hotel over the last ten years. For one more year, things are moving slowly, so our need to spend some time outside is growing. The fields are becoming greener and greener, the flowers are starting to blossom, the water is turning blue…we are seeking the ...

Mastiha the gem of Greece

If I was asked what the main characteristics of my country are, I would definitely say the white and blue colours, but above all the unique flavours, such as of mastiha. As far as I remember myself, one of my most pleasant moments in my childhood was when I tasted mastiha in a piece of cake, in a meal, or even in a chewing gum. Thus, in Aether boutique, I always make sure that my guests are giv...

‘Chorio means tradition, home, family’

One of my pleasures is to get out of the house, any time in the day or night, and drive away with good music, a good company (Athanassios is always a good idea) and definitely without having a destination in mind. Since I moved to Mykonos these long rides—as Mykonos is a small island*— constitute a pleasant journey for me, an oasis of beauty. I absolutely prefer rides in daylight, enjoying t...
