Nice for a renovated resort

Amara Cay Resort is very nice renovated resort but I feel the price & all the extra charges such as resort fees are excessive.

10/10 Exceptional

The resort was lovely and all the staff friendly and helpful. Our room was nice but our ocean view looked over the parking lot and I would ask for a “poolside” view next time as that also gives an Ocean view.

Linus, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice stay for family activities

Great access to the joint hotels by water taxi with access to all the resort entertainment and outdoor activities. We enjoyed kayaking and the pools every day. Downsides: very slow service at the bars and restaurants mainly because not enough workers. At the bar it was almost like they are doing you a favor serve you, picking and choosing who they want to serve first. The bathrooms have nice lights but toilets were badly maintained.

8/10 Very good

The outside bar menu had several beers listed that they didn’t have for the whole weekend. Lucky for me bad for you, I was able to get them at other places. The manager didn’t seem to care when I asked on the first day if they would have them for the weekend. He didn’t!!!
