What makes it special
A short transfer connects the hilltop resort with a sheltered beach, so you can combine elevated views with swimming in the Aegean.
Room to consider
For longer swims in private, book a Deluxe Pool Pavilion. Its twelve-meter pool is twice the length of the standard pavilion's pool.
Insider tip
Ask the team to arrange a visit to a nearby beekeeping farm, where a guided tasting introduces the region's different honeys.

Amanzoe is Aman's hilltop resort near Porto Heli, on the eastern coast of Greece's Peloponnese peninsula. Olive groves spread below its terraces, with the Aegean beyond. The resort combines 38 freestanding guest pavilions, three Beach Pavilions, and 13 villas, giving couples and larger parties quite different ways to stay. Private pools are part of every accommodation category. The Beach Club lies below the main resort, reached by a short road transfer.
That separation is worth understanding before booking. A hilltop pavilion puts you near the main restaurants and spa, with broad views across the countryside or sea. A Beach Pavilion places the shore outside your door. Amanzoe is a resort to settle into for several days, with time to use both settings, rather than a town hotel from which to walk out each evening.
The countryside unfolds beyond a pergola-shaded terrace, reached directly from the living and sleeping areas. Inside, the bed is recessed into a marble alcove. Glass walls bring light into the lounge, where high ceilings echo the proportions of classical Greek buildings.
A writing desk is part of the open-plan interior. In the bathroom, a sunken tub is paired with a walk-in rain shower, and a door opens onto the terrace. A stone-walled courtyard forms the entrance. The pavilion is freestanding on the hillside, with the Beach Club a short drive away.

The architecture draws from classical Greek forms, but the mood is modern. Stone walls, columns, courtyards, and shaded walkways create a strong sense of order. An expansive reflecting pool fronts the arrival areas, while the library, gallery, and gardens give reasons to explore beyond your own terrace. The design is best appreciated with time to notice changing light across the stone.
Amanzoe's Beach Club is about ten minutes away by transfer. Its four swimming pools include two for younger guests, and there are loungers in sun and shade. A gym and two-room spa allow you to stay down by the coast for more than a swim. Paddleboarding, snorkeling, and other water sports are available, with staff to assist. Activities on the water depend on suitable conditions.
For guests who want direct beach access throughout their stay, the three one-bedroom Beach Pavilions have a separate appeal. Each has 65 square meters indoors and 185 square meters outdoors, a 9.5-meter private pool, and a pergola-shaded terrace. The sea is about 30 meters away. Bathrooms have showers rather than bathtubs, a useful detail to note when comparing them with the hilltop accommodation.
Each hilltop pavilion is entered through a stone-walled courtyard. A high-ceilinged living area opens toward the terrace, and the king-size bed sits in a marble alcove. The standard Pool Pavilion provides 100 square meters inside and 110 square meters outside. Its advertised 210-square-meter area therefore combines the two; the terrace is a substantial part of the accommodation.
The main distinctions are outlook and pool length. Pool Pavilions face the countryside and have six-meter pools. Pool Pavilion Sea View adds an Aegean outlook, while retaining the six-meter pool. Deluxe Pool Pavilions have 12-meter pools and countryside views; Deluxe Pool Pavilion Sea View combines the longer pool with the sea-facing position. Every category has its own outdoor space, so the decision need not be about gaining a pool at all.
A pergola provides shade for afternoons outdoors. If you expect to swim regularly in your own pool, the Deluxe category gives you a longer stretch of water. If the view matters more, compare the two Sea View options first. These are clearer distinctions than assuming that every step up the room list brings a different interior layout.
The villas bring separate bedrooms, shared living areas, and staff support to a family or group visit. Options run from one to six bedrooms, alongside the nine-bedroom Villa 20. The two-bedroom category, for example, has en-suite bedrooms, indoor and outdoor dining areas, a kitchen, a private heated pool, and a team including a chef and host. Meals and time together can be arranged around the household rather than a single hotel-room routine.
Villa 20 operates on a much larger scale. Its nine bedrooms occupy six levels and accommodate up to 18 guests. There are 11 swimming pools across the property, including large outdoor pools and an indoor lap pool within its own spa facilities. A gym, library, games room, and several dining areas support an extended stay. Because the accommodation is spread over levels, review the layout carefully for a multigenerational group rather than choosing on bedroom count alone.
The Restaurant serves breakfast and dinner with sea views through tall windows and from its terrace. Greek and Mediterranean dishes share the menu with international choices, including fish baked in salt dough and a Greek tasting menu. For lunch on the hilltop, the Pool Restaurant uses seasonal produce, including vegetables from the resort's gardens. These two venues keep everyday meals close to the main accommodation.
Akari adds Japanese washoku cooking, sushi, and sashimi in an elevated setting by the main pool. It is a useful change of pace during a longer stay, particularly when several evenings are spent on property. Down at the Beach Club, Nura focuses on Mediterranean cooking, with seafood and local meat prepared over charcoal, Greek mezze, and seasonal salads. Check its dinner schedule before planning an evening by the shore.
Bostani dinners draw on the resort's own farm for a more specifically local meal. Other arrangements include dining in the open-air amphitheater or a private dinner in the library. Some experiences run on selected evenings, so a little planning helps you vary the week. The Bar's terrace offers another setting for a drink as the light changes over the coast.
The 2,850-square-meter Aman Spa has seven treatment suites, a Watsu pool, and a dedicated facial room. Hammam, sauna, steam, and cold-plunge facilities sit alongside a yoga pavilion, Pilates studio, and gym. There are also two floodlit tennis courts. This range supports a stay with regular exercise and treatments, rather than a single spa visit added to a beach holiday.
Massages, body treatments, and private or group movement sessions can be arranged around other plans. The spa takes inspiration from ancient Greek approaches to well-being, but its practical appeal is straightforward: several ways to move, swim, and receive a treatment without leaving the resort. Reserve the sessions that matter to you and leave time between them.
Children have more to do than use the villa pool. A children's host coordinates summer activities, including games and crafts linked to Greek traditions. Junior yoga, tennis lessons, and ceramics provide other options. A games room and cinema lounge offer time out of the sun, while children's menus make meals easier. Babysitting can be requested; confirm ages, schedules, and arrangements before arrival.
The wider region rewards a few outings. The resort can arrange visits to Epidaurus, Mycenae, or Nafplion, while local farm and beekeeping experiences introduce another side of the Peloponnese. By water, Spetses and Hydra are possible excursions. Weather, sea conditions, and personal pace should shape the day. There is little need to fit both islands and several archaeological sites into a short stay.
Athens International Airport is approximately two hours and 45 minutes away by road, and the resort can coordinate a private car transfer. Helicopter arrangements are available through its aviation partner, with bookings and payments handled by that operator. Allow for the journey when choosing flights: reaching Amanzoe is part of the itinerary, particularly when combining it with Athens or time on the islands.
From the resort's terraces, olive groves stretch towards the Aegean, keeping the Greek landscape in view while you rest outdoors.
Bostani's Monday dinners use produce from the resort's own farm, with the chef explaining the Greek traditions behind what's on your plate.
Floodlit tennis courts let you keep playing after daylight fades, adding an active option to days otherwise spent relaxing by the water.
