We returned again to this stunningly and beautifully designed resort that is simply, paradise! Having suffered through several difficult personal situations, my wife and I needed an emergency mental recharge and, after considering some other wonderful resorts, I knew the ultimate Zen location would be back at Amanyara. We always stay in an Ocean Pavilion as they offer stunning views throughout the day of the ocean, sky, mind-blowing sunsets, and a star filled sky at night. Although this was our 4th visit to Amanyara, the beautiful architecture and property continued to stun and fill my photo app with pictures. The nighttime lighting of the structures is just as stunning. Added to this picturesque surrounding is a staff that provides as much attention, or as little, as one desires. With beaming, warm and friendly smiles they seek to make the impossible possible. We have always found the staff to be very interesting to talk to as they have had a variety of experiences and backgrounds. This trip involved a particular situation with us that the staff compassionately and quietly went to great extents to accommodate and we were so truly grateful for their kind assistance. As I mentioned to the staff upon departure, we have traveled and stayed at many fabulous resorts and hotels, including other Amans, around the world. Normally, we are happy at the end of the trip and ready for our departure onward. But every stay at Amanyara has been different as, although we have had a fabulous stay, we are truly sad to be leaving such a beautiful and Zen environment and pine for a few more days there!

Five stars doesn’t give Amanyara justice. This place is truly exceptional and exceeds the most discerning expectations - Amanyara is a magical paradise. My husband proposed here and less than a year later we decided to go back for our honeymoon. And we are not alone as most guests are repeat visitors and have become part of the “Amanyara Family. The food is fresh and delicious, and the chef will create any meal that you desire. The staff works incredibly hard and is beyond accommodating. The service is the best I’ve ever experienced. The spa is world-class and the resort is simply breathtaking and perfectly maintained. And the beach - WOW! My favorite beach in the world. Amanyara is truly 10/10. So thankful for Ian and all of the amazing staff. We cannot wait to be back.

Love this place of Zen and relaxation! Just finished our 3rd trip here having been here last June during Covid and in 2019 just before Covid. We absolutely love this resort as the buildings, scenery, location are so beautiful and peaceful. And the staff is just the best from the managers to all levels, so genuinely friendly, accommodating and happy. We have stayed at many Aman resorts and other top hotels and resorts around the world and this is one of our favorites. There is much to do here or do nothing but recharge your system. We had 2 excellent mediation sessions with Toby, who is relatively new to the resort but very experienced, and this was a new bonus. There was also a delicious Arabian meal night that should not be missed. The staff here go to extraordinary lengths to provide a great and relaxing experience. This year we used the expedited airport service and were so glad for it. We left on a Monday and the airport was mobbed with long immigration lines that, using this service, allowed us to go the front. Also, the quiet air-conditioned separate area was a respite from the packed lounge area, making this expense well worth the cost.
