Accommodations

Privacy and personalized service; chic yet exotic.

The twenty-five 'casitas' provide expansive indoor and outdoor living areas surrounded by lush tropical gardens. All 'casitas' are one bedroom with a separate living room area, and fifteen of them offer private, heated swimming pools. With sleek and modern décor as well as the latest high-tech features, you have all the comforts of home (and more!). For the ultimate chance to spread out, the two-bedroom Bay View Casa is ultra luxurious.
Pool + Gym

Variety with wonderful views.

Amanera offers a heated pool with wonderful views of the Atlantic Ocean. Many of the casitas also have their own private pool. Additionally, the property offers a variety of classes such as High Intensity Interval Training, as well as Technogym equipment upon request. For a highly tailored workout experience, opt for a personal training session or personalized yoga class within the privacy of your own casita.
Spa

Heal and realign.

The Amanera signature experiences provide healing treatments inspired by the moon cycles to realign yourself using Mother Nature’s ingredients, lunar energy, and holistic hands-on techniques. Plants inherited from local shamanic wisdom are used reflecting the healing tradition of the island’s indigenous Taíno Indians. All signature journeys begin with a foot ritual, holistic consultation to personalize your treatment, a Palo Santo smudging ceremony and conclude with a Larimar chakra balancing meditation.
Restaurants

Specializing in fresh, organic dishes.

The Restaurant features a terrace overlooking the uninterrupted mile-long golden strand of Playa Grande beach. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the restaurant ensure expansive views from indoors, and the second-story bar is the perfect spot for an aperitif. Or, choose to dine right on the sand at the Beach Club, the ocean providing a spectacular backdrop to your Dominican dining experience.
