Here, modern luxury meets the timeless charm of nature, offering a sanctuary for those who seek a life of balance, creativity, and tranquility. Designed as a residential community for artists, visionaries, and families, Melides Villas redefines the art of living through its harmonious blend of contemporary art, sustainable design, and natural splendor.

Celebrated chefs draw inspiration from ancient culinary traditions, serving exquisite dishes at beach clubs and restaurants.
