Good to Know
Amanzoe
- The beach club and hillside pavilions are a genuine shuttle ride apart — factor that into how you plan your days.
- About 2.5 hours by car from Athens, or a shorter transfer via the resort's private helicopter option.
- Best May through October; many facilities scale back or close over winter.
Villa Igiea
- Rocco Forte has no mass-market points currency; advisor value-added rates are usually worth comparing.
- Room configuration matters particularly at the historic Italian, London, Brussels, and Madrid hotels.
- Book spa treatments and destination dining before arrival in high season.
