Amanera, a Clifftop Retreat Above the Dominican Republic's Playa Grande

Amanera enjoys a panoramic clifftop perch on the Dominican Republic's pristine north coast, overlooking the golden sands of Playa Grande. Set above one of the region's most celebrated beaches, the resort offers a low-density, high-seclusion alternative to the country's larger all-inclusive developments.

The setting comes with unparalleled access to the Playa Grande golf course, a dramatic clifftop layout, alongside watersports and back-to-nature experiences. The resort's casitas, many with private pools, frame views of the Atlantic from their position on the bluff, and its design draws on the surrounding landscape.

The Dominican Republic's north coast remains far quieter than its resort-heavy east, and Amanera has proven the appeal of understated luxury in the region. It has become a pilgrimage for travelers seeking seclusion with a world-class golf course at hand.
