Meronas is one of the most traditional mountain settlements in the Rethymno prefecture, built in the heart of the Amari Valley in a privileged location offering panoramic views of Mount Psiloritis.

The village preserves its authentic Cretan architecture, serving as a significant landmark for agrotourism and providing visitors with a genuine experience of contact with the nature and history of the region.

Local businesses operating within the residential fabric highlight Cretan hospitality, featuring traditional dining spots where one can taste local recipes and products of the Amari land. Its strategic position makes it an ideal base for excursions in central Crete, as it neighbors historical settlements such as Amari, Vistagi, and Genna, and is located a short distance from the Holy Monastery of Asomaton.
