Amarela provides the perfect getaway for singles, couples or families wishing to have a very relaxing, de-stressing break from the daily grind of work. In our case, I and the wife were taking much needed breaks from our hectic schedules and wanted a detox weekend. The food was great and the staff were all very courteous, kind and attentive. The...

This resort has a lot of character. Interesting art including a small art gallery, attractive and clean rooms with furniture and decor that is not mass-produced, are a huge collection of dvds for guests to borrow during their stay. The staff were friendly and generally helpful. The hotel was clean and both the pool and beachfront were well maintained with... More

We went here for our honeymoon, 3 nights. I wasn't wowed at first glance. But after going around the area and noticing that the grounds are very well kept and every single corner was very clean, I immediately felt comfortable. They have this huge collection of DVDs and books which my hubby and I had fun checking out the titles... More

The lush tropical vegetation, the plethora of native art, and the superb and attentive staff, are but a prelude to a magnificent, uncrowded beach, and a spectacular panorama. What more could anyone want? We were a party of five, staying for 7 nights. We were picked up at the airport, and greeted by the very friendly (and capable) front desk... More

This place is a good one! The staff is friendly and polite, the rooms are quiet and clean, they have a wonderful garden with swimming pool and private beach. I liked the Boholano style interior design. They have a huge collection of DVDs and books, including for kids. The place is child friendly.

This place is one vacation dream! It is so homely. It makes you feel so comfortable whichever spot you go. The furniture arrangement, mostly the provincial-type and of different designs lumped together in one spot or around the dining table, is beautifully daring and exudes an aura of unique character. The big wooden doors that guard every entrance of each... More
