Amangiri

Aman resorts are generally the best of the best, but this one is just not the best of what Aman has to offer, thus 4 stars. Arrival was less than stellar, GPS does not direct one to the hotel so when you call the staff should know this and be able to direct you from the GPS location (they couldn't). The bellman took us to the front desk where we couldn't get the room we wanted and the front desk woman was rude about it. I said I would wait outside because we had a dog and to come get me when the room was ready, they never did and it was swelting hot there in summer. This is not normal Aman service. Additionally, the patio outside our room was full of cigarette butts, which the cleaning staff should've attended to when cleaning the room. Inside the room itself and the other resort staff was lovely, what was to be expected when one is paying $445 hour to stay at this resort. Needeless-to-say, the local is stunning, the food delicious and worth the visit if you can afford it.

Truly an unparalleled experience. To be honest I came in skeptical ready to be underwhelmed and I found instead that the staff and facilities exceeded my expectations in every way. I am a convert and am already planning another stay within the aman resort family.

I went here with my mother recently for two nights and this place was definition of serene, private, and peaceful. Everything is choreographed behind you that when you are ready to do anything, there is an abundance of staff ready to accomplish your goals and whether it be dining, excursion, spa, or anything else, you can pretty much do anything here on their truly vast property or they have exclusive suppliers and vendors that can achieve anything you really want off property too. if you can absorb the price point, it is worth every penny.

Blending seamlessly into untouched red-country, the 34 modernist suites of Amangiri and 10 tented pavilions. Surrounded by the majestic Colorado Plateau by stunning wilderness of Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park. A selection of suites offer outdoor lounges, sky terraces, and private pools. Hike the resort's 12 miles of designated trails, practice yoga on the rocks, have decadent spa treatments and end days with dinner at the main restaurant.

A magical place - the stunning scenery is really spiritual. Food is great and service is attentive. Sadly we have been priced out. Their rates have zoomed up to where even well-off people will pause. (Jared and Ivanka were photographed there a few months ago so you get the price level.). If money is no object, this place is for you - and it IS very special. We miss it. (Note: This site only lets you go back to January, we last stayed at least 3 years go.)
