Fringed by beaches, the Peloponnese, dotted with UNESCO-protected ruins, has been the heart of Greek culture for thousands of years. Located on the east coast of the Peloponnese near Porto Heli, Amanzo is a modern Acropolis that offers a 360-degree view of the olive groves and the Aegean Sea. The cabanas, pavilions and villas offer private pools with stunning views and fragrant gardens, while speedboats await on the beach to cruise between nearby islands.
Drawing on classical Greek architecture, all self-contained Amanzoe pavilions open onto terraces with private plunge pools and views of the surrounding land and sea. Each pavilion is accessed through a stone-walled courtyard leading to a high-ceilinged interior. The resort's Beach Cabana offers it all in a prime location on the beach, just steps from the water, while Amanzoe villas have outdoor terraces with marble floors, dry stone walls and concrete columns and eaves with a chef and host. hand to serve each guest.

In Greece, to be united by marriage means to become the founders of a new monarchy. In a traditional ritual known as the "Coronation", two stefani are connected by a single ribbon and put on the couple's heads. The crowns are exchanged three times, and thus the married couple becomes the rulers of their own family. This is followed by a gourmet dinner, and when the day turns to dusk, the guests dance around the reception until dawn.
Traditions like these make Amanzoe a very special destination for a wedding or event in the Peloponnese, where these deeply rooted rituals can be felt in the air of any event, whether it be a large international wedding for 300 guests or a more intimate family celebration in a private villa.
