Amanzoe, Porto Heli
For quiet

Amanzoe

Porto Heli · Argolis · Peloponnese

Set on a hilltop above Porto Heli on the eastern Peloponnese, Amanzoe is Aman's reading of classical Greece rendered in modern stone. Edward Tuttle — the architect behind the original Amanpuri — drew on the temple and the agora: flat roofs on slender colonnades, a long reflecting pool, terraces that open to olive groves and the Aegean.

Accommodation runs to thirty-eight freestanding Pavilions, each with its own pool, plus beachfront units and a group of multi-bedroom Villas. A 2,850-square-metre Aman Spa and a private Beach Club in a sheltered bay anchor the wider estate. The landscape, by Doxiadis+, lets the buildings settle into the slope rather than impose on it.

The table

Dining is deliberately plural: a main restaurant for Mediterranean and Greek cooking; a poolside venue that turns Japanese (washoku) by night; and Nura, a Mediterranean grill and seafood room down at the Beach Club.
