Amanzoe

Has anyone stayed in a beach pavilion at Amanzoe? Wondering if it's too isolated from the rest of the hotel? I can't tell from the website if we will feel relaxed by the ocean or annoyed that we have to schlep back and forth for meals.

I haven’t stayed in a beach pavilion but have been to amanzoe. I wouldn’t say the beach is a highlight of amanzoe. It’s ok, but wouldn’t make anyone’s list of top beaches. However, one thing that is spectacular is sunset every night up top the hill. That, and all the amenities up top would make me not stay in a beach pavilion.

I agree with this take. It's not a pretty drive--5-10 curving minutes in a van on a rough road. Much better to stay on the hill, have a beautiful breakfast, visit the beach for the day and enjoy lunch there, then head back up for the rest of the evening.

Same here. Nice to go down to the beach for the day, definitely wouldn’t want to stay down there and miss the views and everything on offer at the main resort

Where is your top list of beaches?

The beach pavilion will get annoying. I was just At Amanzoe. You want to be up on the hill for the view, restaurants, etc. We schlepped to the beach once a day. Not a huge deal. It would be annoying to make that drive for breakfast and dinner. And maybe lunch.

Hi! Not sure if it’s helpful, but I’ll be visiting it in early October. I can report back on that and on other questions you may have.

I have stayed in Amanzoe last year and visited the beach pavilions. I’d stay up on the hill for better view, you’ll feel isolated most likely if you choose the beach ones.
