The May Edition: Greece, Bhutan & Lake Como

The May Edition · Volume V

Summer fills faster than it should. In this edition: Mykonos welcoming its first Four Seasons, opening in four weeks and bookable now, and a Himalayan circuit for a different kind of traveller entirely. Further in, a guest account from a stay we are asked about often, and a note on current arrangements at five properties. Details on request.

The New Opening: Four Seasons Comes to Mykonos

Four Seasons Hotel Mykonos, Kalo Livadi Bay

New Opening · June 2026

Four Seasons Hotel Mykonos

Kalo Livadi Bay · Greece

The Greek islands have never had a Four Seasons. On 26 June, Mykonos changes that. The 94-room property sits on a cliffside above Kalo Livadi Bay, built in full Cycladic white, with two infinity pools at sea level and a beach restaurant at the water's edge. Every room faces the Aegean. This is not a hotel to discover once summer is over.

From $700 per night · July and August dates moving · Preferred Partner access confirmed

The Considered Choice: A Himalayan Circuit

Amankora, Kingdom of Bhutan

The Himalayan Circuit

Amankora

Five Valleys · Kingdom of Bhutan

For our clients who love Aman, this is probably not the first one that comes to mind. Amangiri. Amanpuri. Aman Tokyo. Those are the ones everyone is talking about right now. But Amankora has something none of the others can offer: the Kingdom of Bhutan itself. Spread across five mountain lodges (just 72 suites in total), it moves you through the valleys of Paro, Thimphu, Gangtey, Bumthang, and Punakha in a country that limits its own tourism by design. You travel lodge to lodge, each at a different elevation, a different pace. Nothing about it resembles a standard Aman stay. That is exactly the point.

Their signature Quest for Happiness journey offers 7 nights for the price of 5. Best suited to autumn, as some lodges rest between seasons. Ask us about October and November.

A Thank You

The Lake Como EDITION

The Lake Como EDITION

You already know this one

Cadenabbia · Lake Como, Italy

We featured Lake Como EDITION in our March newsletter, and you responded. The feedback from clients who made it there has been everything we hoped for.

You know us. We love the EDITION hotels, and this opening has confirmed exactly why. Lake Como has always had grandeur. What it was missing was a contemporary design hotel that felt truly of today. This is it. To everyone who went: thank you for trusting us with it. To everyone still considering: September is open, and we have preferred access.

Preferred access available · September dates open · Longevity Spa & Cetino restaurant by Mauro Colagreco on site.

Make an Introduction

On Our Radar: Three Worth Noting

COMO Le Beauvallon · Gulf of Saint-Tropez, France

Churchill, Fitzgerald, and Colette all stayed at Le Beauvallon. It opened in 1914, closed in 2008, and reopened under COMO on April 24: ten private acres above the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, 42 restored rooms, and Yannick Alléno leading the kitchen. Worth the wait.

Zannier Île de Bendor · Provence, France

A seven-hectare private island off Bandol, with five restaurants, four bars, and almost no one on it yet. It opened May 1. We expect that to change quickly.

Luura · Paros, Greece

Thirty-nine adults-only suites on a cliff above Antiparos, Cycladic architecture by Elastic Architects, opening this summer. Paros has been the quieter Greek island for years. This is the first hotel to treat it that way. Worth knowing about now.
