Amanzoe, Porto Heli, an entire hilltop and private beach for unrivalled seclusion in Greece

Discover timeless serenity on the Peloponnese with a 2,850-square-metre Aman Spa offering personalised wellness immersion programmes. Share

The helicopter flight from Athens to Amanzoe creates a swift segue into an altogether wilder Greece – a place of pure nature, where time stands still. Scattered with Unesco-protected ruins, the beach-fringed Peloponnese has been at the heart of Greek culture for millennia, its small mountain towns and quaint seaside villages welcoming visitors to traditional Greek living at its best. It is on the east coast of this fabled peninsula that Amanzoe rests, a modern-day Acropolis from which 360-degree views encompass olive groves, Aegean blue, and little else.

Set in a land of classical ruins, azure seas and olive groves on the coast of the Peloponnese, Amanzoe embraces the architecture and soul of ancient Greece and is ideally placed for exploring the region’s rich culture, cuisine and natural attractions. Explore the ancient Unesco-protected ruins of Epidaurus and Mycenae, take a horse and carriage ride to a seaside restaurant on the island of Spetses, discover the coastline by kayak, Hobie Cat or motoryacht and enjoy a concert beneath the stars in a classical amphitheatre.

Close to Amanzoe, the Aesclepeion of Epidaurus in Greece was the most important centre of healing in the ancient world.

Amanzoe continues this tradition, tapping into the region’s healing heritage and cultivating immersive, personal routes to wellbeing.

Each wellness experience begins with a detailed health assessment with a doctor, wellness screening and individual goal analysis, ensuring every programme is designed around the individual and built to bring a lasting impact into their daily life. The immersion includes a daily programme of specialised therapy sessions, movement classes and personally prescribed Aman Spa treatments, supported by individual nutrition plans designed to meet the unique neurophysiological needs of each guest.
