About the property

Rafter Melides Atlantica is a striking hilltop residence overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and the Melides lagoon, where contemporary architecture and nature come together in perfect balance. The property is composed of a main house and three separate guest suites, each with its own bedroom, bathroom and covered lounge area, offering both privacy and a sense of shared space. Inside, refined materials, warm tones and carefully curated interiors create an immediate feeling of ease, while the main house features a spacious living and dining area alongside a fully equipped kitchen and master suite. Expansive covered terraces frame uninterrupted views and allow light to flood the interiors without overheating, while a heated, triangular infinity pool sits just below, accompanied by sun decks and sheltered outdoor living areas. Connected by winding pebble paths through landscaped gardens, the entire property feels immersive, private and quietly spectacular.
