The Dwaryawaddy Restaurant specialises in the best Mediterranean and Asian dishes including superbly fresh grilled seafood, while the Kissapanadi Lounge and Bar serves a wide range of drinks from international wines and cocktails to many of Myanmar's excellent beers.

The Amata spa has several treatment rooms where the expert spa team offer a range of therapies including massages, aromatherapy treatments and other wellbeing classics. There is a secluded meditation deck as well.

As far as recreational entertainment goes at Amata, there is a nine hole golf course, fully equipped gym and a tennis court, as well as snorkelling trips and tours to nearby villages. If a more relaxing pursuit is on the cards then we recommend just chilling by the infinity swimming pool, or on the white sandy beach.
