This is a hidden jewel and one of the highlights of our trip. The Amari valley offers a wealth of day trips, and the accommodations at Elia Meronas are magical. You are treated like family and dine like kings. You should plan to stay a minimum of two nights, and be sure to hike up the hill behind Elia Meronas to see the beautiful Orthodox Charpl dedicates to the prophet Elijah and the ruins of a Turkish fort from the he 18th century, both offering breathtaking views of the valley.
