Opening on Tuesday, January 17, this chic, come-as-you-are concept is ideal for those looking to relish in a leisurely beachside breakfast, lunch or dinner with impeccable food and drinks.

Brought to you from Tashas Group – the team behind Flamingo Rooms by tashas, Avli by tashas, and tashas café – Bungalo34 is named after and inspired by the founder Natasha Sideris’ holiday hideaway in Greece.

“I wanted to bring the same essence to this venue, and create an escape for my guests.” says Natasha. “A place where they can spend long afternoons with their family and friends, sharing beautiful food and creating memorable moments in a calm secluded location with stunning views”.

From one-off lifestyle collectables to coral-inspired textured tiles, an impressive attention to detail is reflected throughout, with a story to tell in every corner. Oozing with personality, the stylish interiors feature playful artworks, bold colours, and hand-picked pieces from around the world.

While you may come for the beach and sunshine, you will certainly stay for the food. The classic menu, conjured up by culinary director Jill Okkers, honours the custom of enjoying leisurely meals with friends and family.

Whether you’re sat inside the restaurant, on the gorgeous terrace, or down in the sand, enjoy classic European Riviera-inspired dishes including fresh pasta (the Amalfi lemon is a must-try), a seafood bar, wood-fired pizza, refreshing salads, and more.

Guests can also enjoy breakfast from 9am to 11.30am daily, with dishes such as lobster Benedict, açai fluff, a ​​three-cheese souffle omelette, homemade pastries, and fresh fruits.

Completing that Mediterranean summer feeling: the carefully curated beverages. Watch the sunset while sipping on a Bungalo Spritz, a refreshing cocktail made with one of the most iconic Italian vermouth brands in the 70s. Or cool off with the one-and-only Frozen Negroni, a timeless classic served ice cold.
