Best Abreu Spa Hotels

Backed by jungle, fronted by a sweep of Atlantic Ocean, Amanera enjoys a panoramic clifftop perch on the Dominican Republic’s pristine north coast beaches. Set above the celebrated golden sands of Playa Grande, the resort offers unparalleled access to water sports and back-to-nature experiences, infused with the spice and flavor of Dominican life. Amanera’s luxury Casitas dot the lush Playa Grande coastline with unobstructed ocean views. Overhanging eaves shade expansive terraces with outdoor dining and lounging areas, while inside, the floor-to-ceiling glass doors lead to rooms specially positioned to maximize views. All Casitas feature lofty ceilings and warm wooden finishes, while a selection offer private swimming pools. Cocooned by the lush Dominican jungle and high on a cliff, our peaceful Amanera Wellness Casa is designed as a sanctuary of tranquility, immersed in the tropical landscape. The Wellness Casa provides three couple treatment rooms, each with changing areas, washrooms, and shower facilities. A majestic relaxation area setting embraces the sacred contemplation of the tropical sunset. Grounded in the golden sand of Playa Grande, Amanera features two Beach Spa Pavilions dedicated to massages, private guided meditation, and yoga sessions. All treatments are available at the Wellness Casa and may also be provided in the privacy of your Casita or at the Beach Pavilions. Amanera’s dining venues showcase seasonal and sustainable ingredients from the Dominican Republic combined with international techniques. Surveying the sea from the clifftop, Casa Grande caters to breakfast, lunch and dinner, complemented by a laid-back lunch spot at the Beach Club down on the sand. All of Amanera’s dining venues are open to both guests and non-residents alike for lunch and dinner.
