Overall, I enjoyed my stay at the Amara. It’s a lovely property with attentive staff, and the food at Salt Rock was excellent. Our room was clean, albeit small, and lacked functional space, especially for a family of three. The one major disappointment, however, was the ongoing construction in the resort’s courtyard. The construction area is adjacent to the pool and became quite loud at times. Our room was also upgraded to a courtyard view, which meant we had an even closer view—and experience—of the construction. I’m not sure why the courtyard view was chosen for the upgrade, particularly since I had specifically requested a room on a higher floor. While the overall stay was enjoyable, the construction and room assignment detracted from what otherwise could have been a more relaxing experience.
