10 Small Resorts to Visit in the Dominican Republic Right Now

Amanera, Rio San Juan

Guests at this luxuriously private Aman resort will have the remote Playa Grande beach pretty much to themselves when they’re not seeking solitude in one of the 24 casitas and villas spread along the beach and up in the hills overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Some villas have private pools, but the infinity-edge main pool is no slouch, either. Restaurants and bars are all on the beach, which is also the site for moonlight yoga sessions, spa treatments, and a natural fitness circuit.
