SITE ANALYSIS
Landscape-Roidis design studio was commissioned to design the total design renovation of the entrance courtyard, the swimming pool itself and it’s surroundings, the pool bar and the surrounding the suites area, of the 5* Hotel “Petasos Beach». The hotel was in operation for 12 years. Taking as landscape architects into account the dry and the white-gray landscape of Mykonos, we redesign the entire surrounding area of Petasos Beach as well as its swimming pool.
The new pool bar, overlooking the new pool cascade and the beach of Psarou, the new central staircase from the rooms to the swimming pool, and the pathways between the rooms, have architectural elements from the traditional architecture of Mykonos and the landscape of the countryside.
