8/10 Good

The Amara is the perfect location to enjoy Ixtapa: on the beach, multiple pool options, outdoor bar with drinks and snacks, gym, friendly staff and right across the street from markets and restaurants. There is a 20 USD per person fee for this though, contrary to the listing that there are no hidden fees. The unit was perfect for us as a family. Great bedroom and bathroom set up, fairly well equipped kitchen although missing a few of the amenities listed: toaster, paper towels, spices and note that you need to supply your own shampoo and toilet paper. The large balcony has an amazing view, we enjoyed coffee there every morning, and a drink at the end of the day. Overall a great stay, we would definitely come back. The rating was only downgraded due to limited communication with the host (attentive when there was a maintenance issue but not for the assistance we needed with wifi, taking advantage of the meal prep offer and a request re late checkout option).
