Amata Resort, Ngapali Beach
Myanmar, Ngapali Beach

Set within five acres of exotic, butterfly-filled gardens, the Amata Resort offers chic accommodation and modern Asian design.

The hotel’s 70 cabanas, bungalows and suites are well laid out so that the property never feels busy. The excellent Superior and Deluxe rooms have similar facilities, the latter has a bathtub. Equipped with private verandas, satellite tv, air-conditioning and comfortable beds, the rooms are spacious and stylish.

Our pick would be the resort’s Cottages – detached, wooden, two-story units surrounded by palm trees. Luxurious and private, the split-level rooms have lounge and bathroom facilities on the ground floor and a bedroom upstairs. Cottages come equipped with small private garden, hammock area and large, airy bathrooms. The top room is the Grand Governor’s Sea View which is similar to the cottages but offers an enclosed garden, lotus ponds and stunning sea views.

The Amata Resort has a bright blue swimming pool overlooking the beach. The main restaurant surrounds the pool and offers an indoor environment as well as an outdoor terrace and cushioned sea view sofas. The restaurant serves excellent food and we particularly liked the breakfast here, especially the fresh breads. Other facilities include a tennis court, bicycles for rent, a business centre and wifi internet.

The Amata Resort offers quality accommodation and excellent facilities to ensure a stylish and comfortable stay in Ngapali.
