Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Amagi Aria Airport Transit Hotel is often chosen for its convenient location near the airport. Guests frequently appreciate the spacious and clean rooms, many of which offer great views of the lagoon. Some guests have noted that they found some areas to need more cleaning, but the hotel's BBQ dinner is usually considered superb, and the rooftop breakfast at Moya offers stunning views. The hotel also offers unique amenities such as a swing and floating ferry on the lagoon.
This hotel was really good! The lagoon tour that the front desk arranged showed many birds and wildlife. Captain Rohan was super knowledgeable. I really appreciated the polite tuktuk driver Asim (he even gave me a mini tour!). Breakfast had an excellent buffet too!
The road to the hotel is narrow. Cars must back up if another is trying to leave.
