We stayed at Amara for a big family reunion of 25 people.The house was perfect for such a large group of people, we all felt we could have our own space when we wanted some down time and there was something for everyone. The spa, pool and sauna was the main highlight for both the children and adults. Very comfy beds, kitchen stocked with everything you need to create lovely meals and exceptionally clean. We found the actual area was the only downfall, being on a very busy main road (which you can’t hear from the house), meant not much opportunity for walking or pleasant exploration.It was a really great house and we had an exceptional time. Thank you.
