Amelia Villa

Amelia Villa sits in the greenery around Sani, one of Halkidiki's better-known coastal villages, with direct access to the sandy beach and its shallow, Blue Flag waters. The two-story house is done up in a vintage style rather than the usual minimalist white-and-blue: light colors, plush pillows, a working fireplace, and warm decor throughout give the three bedrooms and open-plan living room a comfortable, lived-in character. Outside, a covered patio with a dining table and a furnished veranda extend the living space into the garden, and guests share use of a spacious pool set within the villa's extensive park grounds. The kitchen is fully equipped for those who want to cook, and chef services are available for evenings when nobody feels like it, an option that suits a group happy to alternate between home cooking and the tavernas and restaurants scattered through Sani. Sani Marina, with its yachts and upmarket shops and restaurants, is close by, and the village itself has enough dining variety for a stay of any length. For those interested in local history, the Byzantine tower of Stavronikitas overlooks the area from its headland, a reminder that this stretch of coast has been settled for a long time before the villas arrived.
