Out & About March 2017

Starting the day with the sunrise yoga class was an absolute must for me. A 180° panoramic view of the Aegean Sea and the surrounding countryside, with olive groves and sprawling cypress trees, can be seen from the yoga pavilion. I enjoyed a rejuvenating session under the calming influence of the yogi, and there is no better way to set you up for the feast that is an Aman breakfast. Mid-morning we moved to the Beach Club, a 10 minute car transfer away, but if you are feeling energetic you can use the complimentary mountain bikes available in the resort. Located on a private beach, the Beach Club is home to four swimming pools and overnight cabanas as well as a casual eatery and two-room spa. We enjoyed a delicious lunch of freshly-caught seafood, salad and mezze. The highlight of the afternoon was an elegant departure on one of the resort’s powerboats, an exhilarating ride to the beautiful island of Spetses for a swim in the clear water of a secluded bay, before an indulgent moment at a bar in the whitewashed streets of the island. Many guests take the opportunity to dine on Spetses in the evening, which is easily reached by water taxi from Porto Heli. Amanzoe is a rare combination of timeless beauty, exquisite attention to detail and a sense of

tranquillity that is hard to find. It has an undeniable wow factor and I dream of returning.
