Amanera | Playa Grande

Where Nature, Solitude, and Wellness Unite

Perched above the dramatic coastline of Playa Grande, Amanera is a modern sanctuary that merges minimalist architecture with the raw, natural beauty of the Dominican Republic.

Designed for those seeking true escape, the resort invites guests to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect—with themselves and with nature. Surrounded by jungle cliffs and sweeping ocean views, Amanera offers a sense of space, serenity, and stillness that is rare and deeply restorative.

Accommodations include sleek casitas and private villas, each featuring expansive ocean views, private pools, and a refined blend of contemporary Caribbean design. The atmosphere throughout the property is quiet and intentional, allowing the mind and body to reset.

Culinary offerings follow the same philosophy—wellness-forward, locally sourced, and full of vibrant Dominican flavor, served in elegant, open-air settings.

Wellness at Amanera is both immersive and intimate. From jungle spa pavilions and holistic healing rituals to ocean-view yoga pavilions and personalized wellness journeys, each experience is curated to nurture balance and inner peace.
