Amara Hotel

Main description
Named after the ancient Greek word Amarantos meaning “everlasting”, the AMARA aims to offer its guests an exclusive and unique experience that we hope will create wonderful and permanent memories. The AMARA’s graceful design, coupled with our dedication to service, ensure that this five-star hotel will deliver its promise of unparalleled enjoyment.

Rooms
Each room has been meticulously conceived and thoughtfully designed to offer a unique way of life. The AMARA has been designed to make you feel as if you own the horizon. The AMARA was built to be a living large-format panoramic camera that frames the horizon from the lobby to the bar, from the Michelin-star restaurants to your personal infinity-edged plunge-pool. Ever changing, ever astonishing, the horizon only stays put for as long as you look at it. Then it changes again, as you move from viewpoint to beauty point

Location
The AMARA is located close to the famous royal ancient kingdom of Amathus.  We endeavour to be worthy of our proximity to this revered archaeological site known as the most significant ancient city kingdom of Cyprus which dates back to before Christ.  Only 8klm to the town centre, and 60klm away from either of the Island’s two International Airports of Larnaca and Paphos.

RISTORANTE LOCATELLI
Mr Giorgio Locatelli, the Michelin Star awarded chef, introduces Ristorante Locatelli with a menu that embodies Italy’s spirit of conviviality, whereby the heart of cooking is defined as the enjoyment of quality food in good company. The Menu is an opportunity to discover the flavours of homemade pasta, delicious risotto and the impeccable twists confirming that even the simplest Italian dishes are all to die for; both in looks and taste. This experience is seasoned with one of the city’s most romantic views of Mediterranean Sea.

ARMYRA BY PAPAIOANNOU
The AMARA’s open-air fish tavern is a charming space, sound-tracked by the sound of the sea gently lapping on the shore. We welcome the vision and experience of Chef GEORGE PAPAIOANNOU and his brainchild, Armyra – a dedicated seafood restaurant that first opened in Greece with the freshest fish, seafood and many more culinary delights prepared with the region’s purest ingredients.

THE DINING ROOM
International and Cyprus’ culinary culture is deeply woven into the fabric of the island’s identity. Use of the freshest of seasonal ingredients unites with recipes passed down over the generations to create openhearted food: an opportunity to share with friends and family. Order a traditional meze, sip on a glass of local Maratheftiko or Xynisteri wine, and experience the joy of our island life.
