A Modern Acropolis Above the Peloponnese Coastline
Drawing its name from the Sanskrit word for 'peace' and the Greek word for 'life', Amanzoe is an ultra-luxury hilltop acropolis sanctuary situated among undulating olive groves, fragrant wild lavender, and cypress trees on the eastern coast of the Peloponnese near Porto Heli. Designed by acclaimed architect Ed Tuttle, the resort reinterprets classical Hellenic symmetry through pure white marble colonnades, calm reflection pools, and open courtyards framing 360-degree vistas of the Aegean Sea and the aristocratic islands of Spetses and Hydra.
Accommodations comprise 38 freestanding Pool Pavilions and a collection of one-to-nine bedroom private villas, each opening through a private stone-walled courtyard into high-ceilinged living and sleeping pavilions with sunken marble bathtubs and private swimming pools. Guests enjoy the holistic 30,000-square-foot Aman Spa with Watsu hydrotherapy and hammams, alongside a private Beach Club set in a sheltered turquoise bay with seaside dining and water sports.
Dining at Amanzoe is an ode to Mediterranean purity and Japanese artistry. Executive chefs craft seasonal Peloponnese delicacies in The Restaurant, sushi and robata grills at Nama, and rustic wood-fired seafood at The Beach Club, all paired with rare Greek vintages beneath spectacular Aegean sunsets.
