Winding evenings down to dusk, a canopy of sunset shades fade into the night sky, setting the scene for cocktails in good company. Savouring the splendour of such a view over the bay, the open-air bar is the place for pre-dinner drinks before dining under the stars. As darkness falls, follow the soft garland lighting to the secret garden; a traditional courtyard where farm-to-table cuisine is the focus.

Proud of its place in the world, The Rooster makes the most of its farmland, much to a foodie’s delight. A nurturing nature runs from crop to kitchen, where homegrown fruits and vegetables are handpicked daily. Creatively combined with ingredients sourced from Cycladic artisans and fishermen, delectable dishes reach your plate, with vegetarian and vegan variations a particular stand out. Welcomed at every stage, green-fingered guests may meet the farmer amid wildflowers and foliage. Budding chefs relish cookery classes, feeding mind, body and soul.
