2025 Kranidi Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in January)

Our stay at Amanzoe was truly unbelievable - probably one of the most relaxing and memorable vacations we’ve ever had. Visiting in the summer was a perfect choice, as it allowed us to fully appreciate the stunning surroundings and the unparalleled sense of calm the property offers. That being said, there were a couple of areas that could be improved. Driving to the hotel’s beach club every day, while scenic, required a bit of planning and preparation, which made it feel less casual and convenient. Additionally, we were slightly disappointed by the Japanese restaurant on-site, as it didn’t quite meet the high expectations we had for Amanzoe. Overall, the food didn’t impress us as much as we had hoped, given the standard typically associated with a resort of this caliber. Still, the serenity and beauty of Amanzoe make it a place worth visiting, and we look forward to seeing how it continues to evolve.
