Another superb resort in Indonesia, in Ubud, Bali, to be more precise, the Amandari is posted right above Ayung River’s gorge, an hour’s drive away from the International Airport in Denpasar. Travel services from and towards the airport are also available.
The location of this superb hotel enhances its feel, setting it somewhere high above the busy life in the cities. Situated in a forest overlooking Indonesia’s cultural capital, Ubud, it is actually a secluded, exquisite resort, surrounded by forests.
The accommodation includes one opulent villa and no less than 30 luxurious suites, all of them designed in close relationship with the surrounding rice terraces and lush vegetation. The local traditions are pointed within every suite, showing off honesty and tranquility.
An overwhelming sense of freedom welcomes guests, shared by the three-sided ceiling-high glass walls and the sizeable green tropical vegetation that ensures the privacy of each courtyard and pool. In addition, those willing to spend some time here should also know that the fabled Mick Jagger got married right at this location.
Besides the accommodation, a strong point to talk about is relaxation – lotus ponds, an infinity pool that overlooks the sacred Ayung Valley and a whole suite of additional services are waiting to please you. Furthermore, the cultural richness of the location is stunning, Ubud being stuffed with master craftspeople and experienced artisans.
During nighttime, guests can enjoy theatrical performances as well as cultural dances, while the local restaurants actively cater to your needs. For prices starting at $800 per night, it is definitely worth spending a few days here, if not weeks. Amandari will surely be one unforgettable experience.
