Amanpulo - One Bedroom Villa
I found some footage on my iPhone from my stay at Amanpulo last year and edited it into one video.
I was staying in a One Bedroom Villa (actually a two bedroom villa with one of the bedrooms blocked off). Originally, I booked a beach casita through AMEX Platinum Travel Services (highest category that can be booked in Sabre) and paid the price differential to upgrade to the villa (the resort does not upgrade further from a beach casita).
If I remember correctly, this may have been Villa #23.
Note: This video includes the flight to/from Amanpulo as well.

My experience is that weather forecast during rainy season shows rain all the time no matter what. In reality there are a couple of strong showers (go in for a massage, take a nap, read or whatever) and then the sun comes out again very soon and you can enjoy even more. Also even when it rains, the temperatures are so nice that it is nothing like the rain at home. I hope and believe you will have a great time!
