I really liked the Cliff Pool and the terrace at the Central Pavilion. The Beach Club is very nice too, but a little hot and bright in the morning and mid-day.
The terraces of the Pool Pavilions are a bit small, but the pools are a good size, and the views are great. Overall, very comfortable.
I spent quite a lot of time talking with Susan. She's really nice and a great manager. Same is true of everyone there.
IMHO, Amanoi has the best service of any Aman I've been too, but I should caveat that by saying I was probably the "first" real guest and the only one there for the first few days so I'm sure everyone was on their best behaviour.
