Amara
The Concept: Sculpted by the Sea
Escape to Villa Amara, a luxurious beachfront haven nestled on the secluded Meakis Beach along Crete’s unspoiled southern coast. Tucked away within serene sand dunes and offering sweeping views of the Libyan Sea, this villa effortlessly blends luxury and nature, creating the ideal retreat for families, friends, and event-goers alike. Every inch of the villa is thoughtfully designed, featuring natural tones, stone, and wood elements that seamlessly connect with the landscape, inviting you to unwind in an atmosphere of effortless charm and coastal beauty.
Outdoors
At the heart of Amara’s outdoor area, you will find a heated infinity pool overlooking the vast blue horizon. With a private pathway leading to the secluded beach that stretches out before you, guests can enjoy swimming in crystal-clear waters or explore the coastline using the SUP boards and canoes, provided upon request. Amara is designed for gatherings as well, with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, BBQ, and several alfresco dining areas that can host 28-30 guests. Enjoy a leisurely meal under the sun or sip on local wine as the vibrant hues of sunset fill the sky. With a tennis court (shared) and a chapel for intimate events, you will never have to leave the villa.
Indoors
The serene beauty of the outdoors is mirrored in Amara’s interiors. Bright, airy, and filled with natural light, the living spaces are designed for comfort and relaxation. Whitewashed walls, modern furnishings, and expansive windows bring the outside in, ensuring that the stunning views of the sea are always part of your experience. The open-plan kitchen, equipped with professional-grade appliances, is ideal for large groups or private chef services. The villa features 10 beautifully designed bedrooms, each with ensuite bathrooms, some offering direct access to the beach, ensuring that the sea is always just a step away.
Good to know
Amara’s location on the southern coast of Crete offers a more tranquil experience compared to the bustling northern coast. The untouched beauty of the surrounding area is ideal for nature lovers and those seeking an authentic Cretan experience. The sandy beach in front of the villa is also a nesting site for endangered caretta caretta sea turtles, and if you visit in August, you may witness the magical sight of baby turtles making their way to the sea. Immerse yourself in the serene beauty of the reef and sun-kissed beach, and experience perfect harmony with nature at Amara.
