Amanera | coming to the Dominican Republic

Taking reservations beginning January 11, 2016, the newest Amanresort has been announced. Amanera will be the second Caribbean resort operated by Aman (the first being Amanyara on Turks & Caicos).

Amanera means peaceful water and draws its name from the Taíno word for water. With an almost unimaginable amount of space, the resort is set on 2,000 acres of virtually untouched land and stretches across nearly seven miles of seacoast. A short flight from the U.S., Amanera is your opportunity to get away from the crowds and bustle of everyday life and simply relax.

Each of the twenty-five 1BR casitas will offer unobstructed ocean vistas and its own private garden. Half of the casitas will feature a private 10-meter swimming pool. Golfers will enjoy playing the Robert Trent Jones, Sr.-designed golf course, Playa Grande, that is integrated into the resort.

Amanyara | 3 complimentary meals daily

As connoisseurs of luxury travel know, Aman Resorts is something special. A collection of unique romantic luxury resorts in some of the most beautiful destinations in the world, Aman knows how to pamper its guests with peaceful, intimate surroundings; aman is Sanskrit for peace. With just 20 resorts worldwide, Aman has consistently earned the highest marks from Conde Nast Traveler and the Zagat Survey.

Amanyara is set in the idyllic Caribbean destination of the Turks & Caicos Islands. With 40 very private pavilions and adjacent private villas, guests can enjoy the half-mile secluded beach, swim in the turquise waters of the Caribbean, and explore the tropical fish just offshore in the pristine coral reefs.

And now, enjoy complimentary daily breakfast, lunch, and dinner while staying at Amanyara for a four night stay or longer. This offer of an all-inclusive stay is combinable with the Virtuoso amenities, meaning you can also receive an upgrade upon arrival (subject to availability) and enjoy a complimentary massage for two once during your stay (with a five night stay) — all you need do is book through a Virtuoso luxury travel consultant. This offer runs through Oct. 31, 2009 but excludes US Presidents Week and Easter; contact me to take full advantage of this offer.
