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. Designed to meld with the land, suites and villas with private pools open onto fragrant gardens or the beach, where speedboats lie waiting to zip between secret coves and the nearby islands of Spetses and Hydra.

WELLNESS & SPA

Taking place in one of the great healing centres of the ancient world, Amanzoe’s Individual Wellness Programmes are comprehensive wellbeing programmes, expertly tailored to the wellbeing needs and health goals of every guest. Lasting three nights or more, both cleansing and weight-management pathways balance movement, nutrition and mental and spiritual elements to deliver meaningful, lasting change in body and mind.

Weight Management & Transformation –  Whether guests seek to shift unwanted weight or build muscle mass, Amanzoe’s Weight Management Immersion programme is body-specific to every participant, balancing nutrition, exercise and wellness therapies to deliver improved confidence and healthy, lasting physical change.

Detox & Cleansing Immersion at Amanzoe  –  Recognising the unique physiology, emotional make-up and lifestyle of every individual, Amanzoe’s detox Immersion pathway is personally curated and formulated afresh for every guest. Here in the naturally healing environment of the Peloponnese, participants are freed from the frenetic pace of everyday life, and able to reset the mind while cleansing and nourishing the body, returning from the Immersion empowered and radiant with positivity.

Mindfulness & Stress Management  –  Cast off everyday tensions and embark on the path to inner peace. This Immersion programme draws on a balanced blend of meditation and movement to instil profound relaxation, promote heightened awareness and nurture a sense of lasting calm. The programme is designed around the individual’s personal health profile, established through pre-arrival questionnaires and a 60-minute initial consultation with Amanzoe’s resident practitioner of Traditional Oriental Medicine. Every day will include one-on-one mindful movement sessions such as qi gong, tai chi, yoga and traditional Greek breath work, as well as specialist therapy sessions including the likes of acupuncture, Watsu and Chi Nei Tsang abdominal massage.

Rooted in Classical healing – Close to Amanzoe, the Aesclepeion of Epidaurus in Greece was the most important centre of healing in the ancient world. People would come to spend the night in the complex, hoping Aesclepius, the doctor-god, would visit them in their dreams and prescribe them a personal pathway to health. Amanzoe continues this tradition, tapping into the region’s healing heritage and cultivating immersive, personal routes to wellbeing.

Truly personal transformation  – 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.

Holistic, balanced, bespoke  – Each 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.

Expert guidance from the world’s wellbeing leaders  – Visiting specialists and leaders form the wellbeing world are regularly in residence at Amanzoe, sharing their skills and expertise via special workshops, personal sessions with Aman guests and one-off Immersion programmes.

Flexible programmes  – Amazoe’s wellness pathways can accommodate those with non-Immersion travel partners, so all guests can make the most of their time at the resort. Driven by clear individual goals set out at the onset, each Immersion is designed to facilitate behavioural changes and ongoing practices that can be incorporated into everyday life.
