Now we’ve all dreamt of finding our goddess on a holiday island and yes we can on a flight tae Aphrodite and Cyprus.
Aphrodite, of course, is the Ancient Greeks’ goddess of love.
And Cyprus is where she is said to have bathed in the rejuvenating waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
There’s no surprise then that people come from around the world for an AMARA Hotel relaxation and restoration experience.
Oil be there
The Cypriots’ AMARA Spa with doubles starting from €382 per night offers a variety of treatments with ingredients native to the island.
Such as the Cyprus Ancient Ritual Signature Treatment.
The ‘Ancient’ uses organic olive oil from the island, crushed carob seeds, and warmed grapefruit halves.
To gently exfoliate the body and brighten the skin.
This is followed by a full body massage with olive oil infused with the essence of cypress, lavender and thyme.
Holistic fantastic
AMARA Spa boasts a wide array of holistic treatments (including CosMedix), therapies, and infinity-edge pools.
Signature treatments include the AMARA Aroma Journey (a delicate honey and crushed rose petals body scrub infused with the aromas of Ylang Ylang)…
And Collagen Boosting Hydra-Rose Diamond Facial (no, I don’t need it yet).
It’s a deep exfoliation-using diamond dust and an enzymatic peel to immediately brighten the skin.
And it allows for deeper penetration of collagen, followed by an intensely lifting facial massage.
In addition, the AMARA Elite Facial and the AMARA Scrub Bar pay homage to the island’s local ingredients.
And, of course, you’ll be set in lush grounds, filled with olive trees and palms and ornate ponds.
Classic interiors
While inside the hotel’s interiors are inspired by the rich heritage of Cyprus, with cultural influences and architectural details.
With a cohort of top chefs, infinity pools overlooking volcanic beaches and 207 sea-view bedrooms, the AMARA will refresh you.
While you can take in the ancient ruins of Kourion, a half-hour drive away.
And with the AMARA recently announced winner of Cyprus’ Best Spa Hotel 2023 in the World Spa Awards.
Then you’ll be rushing to catch your flight tae Aphrodite.
