Amanyara

The hotel itself was very nice and secluded. All of the staff members were very helpful except for one worker at the beach who was very rude. The chairs at the beach are very far away from the bar and the waiters at the beach do not come up to your section to see if you need any drinks or food so be prepared to stand up and walk to get their attention. Most high end hotels I've been to would normally have someone checking in on each group every so often to refill drinks/food. This was a huge turn off. Getting off hotel and getting a taxi is very expensive (around $500 roundtrip) so be prepared to spend and arm and a leg if you want to explore. Rooms are quite far from the front entrance, restaurants, and lobby. They provide bicycles that you can use to get to your room, or you can request for a golf cart to pick you up and drop you off to your room or pick you up. Food is very expensive at the hotel which is kind of expected. Fruit bowl is $32 and a 6" avocado toast is $36. A 6oz Fresh juice is $16. We spent roughly $200 each morning for breakfast after the 28% tax. Because the hotel is in a secluded area, with nature, there are insects all over the rooms. Expect to get bit by mosquistos daily and nightly while sleeping. Total we spent was around $20,000 for 3 nights not including off resort activities. Theres better places in the world that you can go thats more worth the money spent. Overall experience was 2/5.

My friends and I had a fantastic dinner at the bar, thanks to Winnie, the Beverage Manager, who made our experience exceptional. Her outstanding customer service truly reflects her dedication to her role. She recommended pizza for the night, and even though I'm not usually a pizza fan, it was absolutely out of this world! The chef, Clovis (I hope I spelled that right), crafted something unforgettable. If you're ever in Turks and Caicos, you have to try his pizza—nothing compares. We’ll definitely be returning for another slice and to enjoy the amazing service from everyone we met that evening, including Conrad, Urie, and David at the bar. You all made us feel at home and are fantastic bartenders. See you soon!

Omg this is a must have, if you are on Providenciales and looking for the best pizza try getting a reservation at Amanya ask for your pizza to be done by Clovis, we had a pepperoni pizza it was so good we had to order a second one, we tried the margarita and it didn’t disappoint.

If the experience planning my trip is any reflection of the trip to come, I am already so impressed! I booked the wrong spa appt not once, not twice but actually three times and the Spa team was so incredibly patient and accommodating. I travel a lot and you can just tell when it’s going to be great! I am so excited for this trip of peace, restoration and healing! More to come!

Unfortunately not the review I want to be leaving, but I feel it is necessary after our visit in May 2021. Amanyara was the 4th Aman I’ve stayed at and by far the worst. To be clear, the others were impeccable! Service left much to be desired from the very beginning - we made multiple simple requests to the front desk (for hangers, a bandaid) and literally not one of them happened. Almost every single meal we had was painful in some way, from terribly slow and incompetent service to bringing out the entirely wrong meal. The waiters at the beach had to be chased down just to get water, and many of them were rude. I understand that they had staffing issues with COVID, but the poor service we received really cannot be excused given the exorbitant cost. It’s pretty clear that to get good service you have to be important in some way (an NBA player was there at the same time and the staff bent over backwards constantly for him, while neglecting everyone else.) We are really not difficult to please, but unfortunately we will not be back!!

Short version: unmatchable location and beach; friendly service; great facilities; attention to detail Pros - responsive service (shout-out to Sade, Yessica, Ervin, and kayak instructor among others), treated our 4-year old daughter like a celebrity, beach, private pavilions, great facilities Cons - few service shortcomings, food was good but not great Pre-arrival: booked online directly through the Amanyara website, but will note that it was hard to get a hold of their reservations team via phone or email. I was given some inaccurate information by the Aman reservations number about the location of the pavilions and when asking for quotes over email, took over 24 hours to hear back from them, which led to some of the pavilion types being booked up. However, once I booked, I was able to communicate my requests to the Amanyara team via email and they were more responsive. Arrival: I had arranged a private transfer with car seat, which was a Mercedes-Benz GLS-450 (they had a whole fleet...no range rovers). Vehicle was ready on arrival. Friendly driver offered us cold towelettes and chilled drinks (water, sparkling water, etc.). I mentioned our daughter gets motion sickness and he drove extremely carefully. The road was windy and unpaved for more than half of the 25-minute drive but not nearly as bad as I expected. Upon arriving at the hotel, were greeted at arrival area by team of smiling staff with welcome drinks. bags were whisked away to our room. Sade from the staff gave us a brief tour of the property and of our room. She immediately hit it off with our four year old, who became her biggest fan. Check-in was done in room. Room: We were upgraded to an alcove pavilion, which was located on a lagoon/pond and has a glassed-in sunroom/alcove, thus more inside space than other pavilions. We had the chance to look at a pool pavilion but unless you're planning on swimming in your room most of the time, did not feel it was necessary given proximity of beach and infinity pool. Pavilion was very private--you walked down a long path and down some stairs to the pavilion. There was an outdoor patio with dining table. Our pavilion was walking distance to the main area and a slightly longer walk to beach but some pavilions were definitely a lot farther. We called for the golf cart, especially during night time. Service: they pampered us. Sade at reception was really a standout--went above and beyond. Daughter would ask if Ms. Sade was around every day and wanted to ride shuttle with ms. Sade. She tried to find a Minnie Mouse for my MM obssessed daughter and upon check-out, came by with TWO surprise gift bags of toys. Whenever we had a request, it was met...for example, asked for microwave in room, got it. Asked for room closer to main facilities, got it. Internet was slow in room--they called IT and fixed it. Mentioned dietary restrictions, they were addressed. Most importantly, they made our daughter feel like royalty. They gave her a gift bag on a

Nicest hotel in the Carribean. Have been going here for over 10 years. Our favorite hotel in the Carribean. The service is very attentive and amazing. Much improved from our last visit in April 2022. Nolan our butler was a superstar and very attentive. Amazing new improved menus and choices at the restaurants. Surprised my wife and I one morning with a private breakfast on cliff edge overlooking the ocean. One of the nicest beaches anywhere in the world and we travel a lot. Beautiful Pavilions - rooms- all glass overlooking the amazing turquoise waters. The massages at spa were amazing with therapists from Asia. New managers are very attentive. Upgraded the TVs with apple tv in every room. Tennis pros are also great. Recommend highly as the best resort in the Carribean. Can’t wait to come back soon.

Super laid back beautiful place with great service, food and drinks, transportation to nearby places provided, with cool drivers that played fun music for us. A great time!!! Rooms were spacious and clean with great views.

On the way home from our stay my wife and I discussed how we would rate our experience. We decided that of ALL the Caribbean resorts we’d visited (many), Amanyara ranked FIRST in all categories: Beach Room Food Tennis courts Service We love tennis and the well-maintained HarTru courts, some of which were well protected from the breeze, were fabulous. The only inconvenience related to gratuities. Are we supposed to give a tip for every ride to our room, every gesture of service, every time someone brings us tennis balls? That’s work; not relaxation. I wish they either prohibited tipping or collected a percentage of all charges or something so we didn’t have to worry about it. Bottom line: Can’t wait to return.
