In Zakynthos on the well-known Red Rock (kokkinos Vrachos) of Xenopoulos, beside the Krioneri Lighthouse, in 1979 John and Soula Stamiris decided to renovate their old traditional mansion. By 1990 with the help of the Zakynthian architect, Nikos Lycouressis, they created the Piano-Bar Restaurant Aresti. Its unique architecture, the traditional local materials used -stone, brick, wood- the popular technicians who worked with much care and lone, its colours, the granny’s old Zakynthian furniture and the paintings by D. Konstantopoulos and K. Maroyda , led to the unique beauty of Aresti.
