Amanera

Siamo i cosiddetti "Amanjunkies" e abbiamo visitato più di 15 Aman Resorts in tutto il mondo. Amanera è uno dei migliori resort Aman che chiunque possa provare. Il personale è fantastico e super cordiale, in grado di soddisfare tutto ciò che possiamo sognare. Questo viene fatto nel modo più Aman, sottile ed elegante. Grazie a tutto il team Amanera per questa esperienza così speciale.

Amanera completely blew me away. This was my second Aman (the first was Amanyara), and while both are stunning, the warmth, care, and attention to detail at Amanera was on another level. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty everything felt peaceful, easy, and luxurious in the most understated way. Lionel (the GM) made us feel so welcome, and the staff were beyond exceptional. Wellington and Angel were absolute stars some of the best service I’ve ever had anywhere. Gustavo made check-out smooth and stress-free, and even our airport driver was kind and professional. We had a few private dinners the casita BBQ, a beach dinner, and one in the library in total chef’s kiss moments that made the trip feel extra special. The only small downside is the beach it’s beautiful, but the waves are strong, so it’s better for confident swimmers. I was told there’s a calm beach five minutes away, but I was so relaxed at the resort I didn’t want to leave. Hands down, the most memorable and relaxing stay I’ve ever had in the Caribbean. Also the food was delisshhh (breakfast and lunch being my faves) which is shocking compared to some other Caribbean resorts I’ve been to IYKYK I’ll be back Aman has a guest for life

If you’re looking for the perfect mix of adventure, relaxation, and luxury, Amanera in October is it. We were so excited to visit this Caribbean gem in the Dominican Republic. We really lucked out with weather since we went the first week of October, which is well into hurricane season in DR. We had rain in the evening for 1 night out of 3! Amanera is perched on a cliffside overlooking Playa Grande, with stunning ocean views and lush tropical surroundings. It is about 1.5 hours away from POP airport. I highly recommend you DO NOT drive. The roads are not developed for a majority of the initial ride. October was an amazing time to visit because the weather was warm but not too hot, and the crowds were minimal. We stayed in a Casita with a private pool; the design was sleek and modern, yet blended perfectly with the natural surroundings. Waking up to the sound of the waves and stepping out onto our terrace with that view? Unreal. The bed was insanely comfortable, the bathroom was huge, and the private pool was perfect for cooling off in the afternoons. I highly recommend taking bug spray, as you are literally in the jungle. October was a great time for both adventure and relaxation. We spent time lounging on the gorgeous Playa Grande beach, swam in the infinity pool, and took a guided hike through the jungle. Amanera’s staff were amazing. They made everything so effortless, from arranging private experiences to surprising us with little treats in our casita. It felt like they truly cared about making our trip special without ever being intrusive. The whole resort had a peaceful, intimate vibe, making it the perfect romantic escape. Amanera in October is pure paradise. Whether you want to relax, explore, or just enjoy the most beautiful beach views, this place has it all. The combination of stunning nature, incredible food, and world-class service made it one of our favorite trips ever.

If I could give aman 0 starts I would. A few months ago I booked a beautiful and expensive casita. Did all the things in my life (as well as my fiends) to get everything covered for work and childcare. I’m an attorney. I had 3 other attorneys making courts appearances for me PLUS I rescheduled and entire mediation for this trip. Well. A few days ago I get an email saying they over booked us and we have three options; Change dates (impossible) Go to sister property in Turks and Caicos ( we’ve already been and it looks like that aman isn’t even close to the ocean or… Refund plus two night free. Now who’s gonna use two travel days to go stay at aman for 2 day?! And no word back on non refundable plane tickets. I am appalled such a high end place wouldn’t have made such a monumental mistake. Now we can’t find any comparable Places with comparable fight times during our original dates. I’m disgusted. And yes we were the first to book I’m saying this because those of us who desperately need a relaxing vacation have to work out ALOT odd and ends to make this happen. Beware. This could happen to you. Easily. Hope this creates second thoughts in as many people as possible because this really was messed up.

We just love the entire experience ! There is no signage for the property and as such you have a feeling of a remote, lush property. The chic , open air architecture, the fabulous suites.. the drama of wild windswept ocean all contribute to an amazing sense of place… The staff is congenial and top notch. Lionel the GM is omnipresent. Service outstanding. I love the little gifts they leave in your room when you return from dinner! We love to swim so we would walk to the public beach where the water is less challenging. It’s a lovely daily hike. I love to shop so I wish the gift shop was more varied. There are some Dominican products but mostly the Aman line of clothes and products which are not interesting. Had great massages at the spa!

Pros: Exotic Location Privacy : Few guests Beautiful Beach Friendly staff Beautiful Architecture of hotel Well maintained villas Cons: Limited Food Variety [ Just 1 full time restaurant. 2nd Restaurant is open for limited time and days ] Low quality hotel toiletries Ambiguous billing. No Cabanas on the Beach. Spa-Massage staff cut short the promised duration of the Massage. Even though there were no other next scheduled appointment. Wild ferocious dogs on other side of beach - very unsafe. Conclusion: Compared to the other similar Luxury High-end hotels we have stayed in, Amanera did not deliver the expected standard of service and experience.
