I have no issue with lizards Ericka, I guess you have CedricGerald story in mind at Amanusa

We did see a snake close to the main pool but wildlife is ok for me except spiders
To reply to all questions:
- no work evidence of beach club extension for the moment (didn't even know it was planned)
- housekeeping issues may be consequent to the high occupancy rate indeed. It was not a real issue anyway, just something that I didn't expect at an Aman property.
- when comparing with Amanbagh the main difference is the size, meaning that in a small property it is always the same people who take care of you, and personalization is at its best. They set up a special dinner on top of the library once, they organized a special ceremony after another dinner, etc. At Pulo everything was more 'normal' and anticipations/expectations are more standard to any high end resort. It was still great, but may be I was expecting too much. Guests staying in villas have probably a different feeling.
The GM confirmed Aman Playa Grande would be open by November
