A BEACH-SIDE HIDEAWAY

OVERVIEW

Amarya Shamiyana, the third installment by the Amarya Group is a cheerful and intimate resort located in the trendy Ashvem area, right on its picturesque beach. The four tents ('shamiyana' in hindi) are luxuriously spacious with high ceilings and wispy drapes to partition individual spaces inside. Each 'tented-suite" is designed around an individual colour code: purple, pink, turquoise & gold. The bathrooms are large with tasteful modern fittings, a generous mirror and a hand-made wooden shower-stall with a fabulous rain-shower.

The service is personal and caring, where the staff goes to every length to cater to individual fancies. The kitchen only serves up a sumptuous breakfast spread and easy snacks, which although simple, use only the freshest produce and finest products. The Amarya has strategically tied up with the popular La Plage restaurant located just beside it for its fine cordon bleu that may be served in the privacy of one's own tent.
