Culture & History
Set in Bali's cultural heartland, Amandari's emerald-green grounds are sacred to local communities, with religious processions and colourful dancing. Look out for the stone tiger left centuries ago by a Hindu priest, while a short stroll brings you to Ubud village, bulging with galleries, museums, art studios and craft stalls. Longer treks lead to more artisan settlements, selling all manner of handmade keepsakes, and ancient shrines, statues and springs speckle the landscape, interwoven with paths and plunging rock walls. Watch history unfold on a tour of local temples, some dating back to the 8th century, or seek out Ubud's cultural calendar for extravaganzas of music and Balinese dance.
Romance
The location alone is magic enough to make any stay romantic - the sumptuous thatched villas, with their sunken outdoor baths, private walled gardens and constantly amazing views encouraging an even more romantic ambience. Delve deep into this spellbinding region, an adventure to share on foot or even atop an elephant, dine a deux in a rainforest wilderness of swaying coconut palms and terraced paddy fields, in a secluded picnic spot with gourmet hamper, the location skilfully hidden by the natural curving of verdant slopes, or book a private chef for dinner overlooking the gorge, with piles of petals and glowing candles adding to the romantic scene.
Spa Breaks
Amandari's Spa is located at the end of a winding river stone path and offers two open-air bales, a beauty room, sauna and marble steam room. Surrounded by a lotus pond, it seems to float peacefully above the water. A selection of body and beauty treatments are available here, in the privacy of guest suites or in the bale overlooking the Ayung Valley. Body treatments include massage and scrubs using traditional, natural Balinese ingredients chosen for their soothing, healing properties. Facials, manicures and pedicures are also available.
In Addition
For an exhilarating Indonesian experience, white-water raft down the Ayung River or trek along the rice paddies. This relatively easy, child-friendly trek is exciting and informative, with the Ranger explaining the various flora and fauna as you go.
