I stayed 5 nights at the Amata and was very pleased with just about everything; the location, the food, my room with a very comfy bed and especially the staff that was so nice and provided the best service. Also I would like to mention their eco-friendly policy, with for example no plastic straws. I would especially like to thank May Thazin Hmway at the reception and restaurant manager May Thu Nyunt Aye who both made my days exceptionally enjoyable. I really hope to return some day,
Great location, lovely beach, plenty loungers, daily cocktails good variety for breakfast. Very well kept gardens, friendly staff. Large walk in shower which had good pressure and nice hot water. Room was large with plenty of storage. Beds were a bit too soft, rooms and bathrooms need refurb. Bathrooms need another light, chairs on balcony were very difficult if not impossible to get out of. Daily Happy hour, lovely pool although more decorative. Plenty interior and exterior seating for breakfast. As with most hotels in this region, the exterior is lovely but an ongoing maintenance scheme needs to be put in place for the rooms.
I stayed with some friends for 4 nights at Amaya. It is a lovely resort, not exactly a 5 European stars, but very nice. We had transfer from the airport and we were received with a welcome drink. The staff was very friendly and helpful and made their best to accommodate us even if we got to the hotel before the check in time. The staff was also helpful when I asked for a change of room. The rooms from the row next to the street are very noisy so if possible avoid them. The resort has a nice pool and a beach front with beach chairs. The restaurant has a good international meniu but you can find nice local restaurants just a few steps away on the beach. The breakfast was very good and varied.
We stayed there for almost a week and pretty much enjoyed Ngapali Beach. The destination is really nice and no surprise that many tourists end their Myanmar roundtrip there. The Amata Resort most likely used to be a great spot 10 years ago, but in the meantime it is really aged. The villas are pretty dark and also old. We also had problem with the sinks. There are much nicer places beachfront along the beach. Staff was nice so, but this was the case at any other place we stayed as well. For dining we can recommend the Sunset View Restaurant a bit up the road/beach. The prices there are maybe a third or less only. And food amazing.
We spent 3 nights in Amata resort. The resort itself is fab. Friendly staff (except manager of resort). On departure he was standing behind us and didn't even ask how was our stay. We felt very unwelocemed. Speaking of the hotel. We stayed in room no 701. I have to say it is the best room of the whole hotel. It has 2 balconies and one of them facing the sea. The view is amazing. You should ask for room 701. Hotel offers very good breakfast. You will never be hungry after having breakfast at Amata resort!! :). To sum up our stay. We loved it! And we would go back to Amata. The only one thing I should say... during our stay there was something going on as there were so many people staying from Nivea. There was a big group of young people, who took the whole beach for themselves.... all the tables at restaurant. Felt like just 2 of us were staying there and the big group of people from Nivea. …
