When we found ourselves in Phoenix, Arizona as part of a family Thanksgiving, we couldn't resist a stop at Amangiri. We self-drove 4 hours from PHX to the Grand Canyon, staying at the historic Buckey O'Neill cabin directly on the edge of the South Rim. We drove the remaining 2.5 hours to Amangiri using the directions provided by the resort which made it easy to find. Staff members buzzed us onto the property and we were immediately blown away by the beautiful valley, the entrada sandstone and the vastness of the place.
This was our 17th Amanresort, and we found it to be the most striking of all. We normally don't appreciate very contemporary architecture or decor, but the resort blended so well with the landscape. As most of the resort's activities were geared towards the outdoors, people were dressed in hiking and workout clothes giving Amangiri a very comfortable, casual feel.
