The staff wasn't exactly warm, friendly, or intuitive. I got to the spa 15 minutes early, no real welcome, no consult. When I got to the treatment room, I noticed although there was a chair and a foot bath - this was skipped, and this expected aman ritual was entirely ignored.... The same happened to me in Amanwella, so perhaps this is a systematic change or the result of staff changes / lack of training? I don't know.
As with most Aman spas, there is usually a tea and treat offered at the end of treatment; unfortunately, after waiting unattended, I had to ask for tea. I am not sure what explains the ailing spa experiences at Aman lately, but I'm hoping this isn't something permanent.
Simply appalling and I'm sure it cost a pretty penny too. Should not be skipping a foot ritual and should not need to be asking for tea. I know you're an advisor but did you let the Spa Director or GM know about your experience?
