quotes from the media

"As places to stay, however, the pavilions are superb. Mine, in the least expensive category, was as pleasing and perfectly configured as any hotel room I’ve slept in. It’s cool, calm, contemporary interior had a floor of polished veiny grey marble, a lofty oak ceiling and sufficient furniture, upholstered in greige yet somehow sumptuous Jim Thompson textiles. It was beautifully lit with wooden louvres and sliding screens across its wall of glass, and panels of translucent marble in the doors to filter the sunlight. At 100 sqm the wraparound terrace was as big as the room itself, its view a sublime panorama of ultramarine Aegean, the islands of Spetses and Spetsopoula and the myth-rich mountains of Arkhadia beyond."

"Amanzoe felt like a proper sanctuary. There’s a well-stocked library: a little amphitheatre for live performances: a couple of very good unpretentious restaurants and an outstanding spa, where every treatment room ahs its own steam room, bathroom and because this is an all-year resort, fireplace."

"It’s a restorative, responsible place, and being there made me long to see it in winter in the snow and again in springtime, when the countryside is full of flowers and the landscaping has matured. In Greece at least, there is nowhere like it, nor likely to be for some time."

“Amanzoe is awe-inspiring on approach. My jaw dropped in amazement as I explore this veritable Aman acropolis…”

"Want to feel like a modern Greek goddess on your honeymoon? Book a guest pavilion overlooking the Aegean at the new Amanzoe Resort in southern Greece. In addition to lounging at the incredible Aman Spa, you can press your own olive oil, go pomegranate-picking, swim in secluded coves, trek to the Temple of Hera (goddess of marriage), and dine alfresco everywhere."

“Wherever Aman goes, the style tribe slavishly follows. And just when you thought there were no more variations on the word aman, the trailblazing hotel company has opened Amanzoe, in a remote area of Greece’s Peloponnese peninsula. With reflecting pools, soaring marble walls, and panoramic views, architect Ed Tuttle’s pared-down sanctuary strikes a balance between serenity and drama.”

“In the talented hands of longtime Aman architect, Edward Tuttle, these soaring, minimalist columns befit the brand’s understated elegance. My jaw drops as I explore this veritable Aman acropolis …. Amanzoe is awe-inspiring on approach”

“It’s dripping in discrete luxury and set in a catch-your-breath location.”

“Finally, some good news from Greece: Amanresorts has arrived.”

“Aesthetics in pure culture allures from this summer onwards at Amanzoe in Greece. The hotel group, known for its ingenious service concept, has charged star architect Ed Tuttle with the construction of the noble cube-like property...He realized a bucolic Zen retreat for the worldwide fan base of Amanresorts.”
