Dominican Republic
Exclusive offers & savings
Enjoy a luxurious holiday in the Dominican Republic.
Sitting on the north coast of the serene Dominican Republic, Amanera lies between the two small villages of Río San Juan and Cabrera, embraced by more than 400 acres of lush, protected rainforest.
The name Amanera is derived from aman, the Sanskrit word for peace, and era, which means water in Taíno, an ancestral Caribbean language. Nestled next to Playa Grande’s mile-long stretch of satin beach, the luxury Amanera resort overlooks the rippling turquoise waves and presents utter tranquillity.
The ideal golfer’s retreat, Amanera is home to one of the Caribbean’s premier golf courses. The resort is perfect for enjoying private horseback rides through forests, teak plantations, mangroves and along the beach – or for the adrenaline-junkie, canyoning and rappelling down waterfalls is also an exciting activity. Further to the west lies the town of Cabarete, one of the world’s top-rated windsurfing and kiteboarding destinations, while eastward is the natural deep-water port of Samana, famous for the humpback whales that roam its warm waters during winter.
Accommodation at Amanera includes a range of exquisite Casitas and Casas, with phenomenal interiors and many with private swimming pools. With lofty ceilings, warm wood furnishings and floor-to-ceiling glass doors leading to the terrace, a stay here promises unobstructed cliff-top ocean views.
Delight your tastebuds at Amanera Restaurant, serving fresh, organic dishes, or base yourself directly on the beach at Club de Playa; an informal beach club where diners can enjoy local dishes and Mexican classics in a lovely beachside backdrop.
