Muse Exclusive French Riviera Escape Weinar with Zannier Île de Bendor, Luxury Island Hotel
Experience the rebirth of one of the Côte d’Azur’s most storied private islands with the launch of Zannier Île de Bendor, a 93‑key masterpiece reopening after a meticulous five‑year transformation. Set just seven minutes by boat from the charming coastal town of Bandol, this reimagined Mediterranean sanctuary blends Provençal warmth with Riviera glamour, becoming a new social, culinary, and wellness capital of the French Riviera.
Zannier Île de Bendor is designed as a village‑style retreat spread across a seven‑hectare island, offering three distinct accommodation styles—Delos, echoing the refined 1960s French Riviera; Soukana, centered on reconnection and wellbeing; and the Madrague Houses, two‑storey garden residences exuding authentic Provençal charm.
Guests will immerse themselves in curated experiences ranging from art, design, and nature encounters to ocean adventures and sporting pursuits. The island features three restaurants, four bars, a café and creperie, all guided by celebrated Executive Chef Lionel Levy, bringing Mediterranean cuisine and convivial dining to vibrant new heights.
At the heart of the resort lies its expansive 1,200 sqm wellness centre, the flagship expression of Zannier Hotels’ holistic philosophy. Facilities include hammam, treatment suites, indoor/outdoor pools, yoga platforms, tennis and pickleball courts, ensuring deep renewal rooted in time‑honored practices and contemporary wellbeing.
A storied island transformed into a modern cultural haven, Zannier Île de Bendor invites discerning travelers to rediscover Mediterranean art de vivre—quietly luxurious, deeply sensory, and authentically inspired.
