Zannier Hotels to oversee revamp of private island in France
Zannier Hotels has been appointed to manage the redesign of private island Île de Bendor in the south of France. The six-hectare island, which is 300 metres off the coast
of the commune of Bandol, will undergo a total renovation, and is expected to reopen as Zannier Hotels Bendor in 2026. The island will be transformed into a ‘Provençal-style village’
featuring a 93-room hotel and a range of bars and restaurants, including the second outpost of Nonna Bazaar, the immersive dining concept Zannier launched in Menorca last year. The social spaces will include a beach club, curated artisan
village, holistic wellness offerings and a spa. Zannier Hotels will oversee all aspects of the island’s
redevelopment including the architecture, landscaping and interior design.
Île de Bendor marks Zannier Hotels’ sixth property, joining Le Chalet in France; Phum Baitang in Cambodia; Omaanda
and Sonop in Namibia; and Bãi San Hô in Vietnam.
