Villa Amalia is a lovingly created space - a true island home away from home, designed for comfort, peace, and a touch of sunshine.
Hi! I’m Maruša, a 30-something globetrotter who always takes the scenic route and tastes the culture through food. After a few trips to Cape Verde, my family completely fell in love with the island. We decided to create our own little escape here - a calm, sunny space to unwind and enjoy the simple island living. That’s how Villa Amalia was born; our island home away from home, and now one we’re excited to share with other travellers. While I’m new to hosting, I’ve been on the guest side many, many times, so I know how important the little things are. I’ve also worked in hospitality, which means I genuinely care about making sure your stay is smooth, comfortable, and full of good vibes. Whether you’re here to relax by the pool, explore the island, or just soak up the sunshine, I’ll do my best to make your time at Villa Amalia feel just right!
Nestled on Sal’s west coast, Villa Amalia is part of a 5* beachfront resort, just a short walk from the beach. Surrounded by lush tropical gardens, the resort offers direct access to pools, a full-service spa, and a well-equipped gym. Guests can also enjoy a variety of on-site dining options, from international cuisine to local Cape Verdean dishes, as well as vibrant bars perfect for sunset cocktails or laid-back evening drinks. The lively town of Santa Maria is just a 5-minute taxi ride away, where you’ll find live music, fresh seafood, beach cafés, and small shops to explore. If you’re into water sports, you’re in the right place—windsurfing, kitesurfing, diving, and snorkeling are all popular and easily arranged nearby. The airport is only a 15-minute drive away, and we’re happy to help arrange airport transfers.
