Culture & History
Overlooking Laos' former royal capital, Amantaka is a gateway to intriguing cultures, ancient establishments and timeless landscapes. Join guided walking and cycling tours of Luang Prabang and discover heaps of colonial architecture, thirty golden-tipped temples and the Pra Bang Buddha statue, the city's namesake. Return after dinner for the night market, then rise early the next day and offer alms to streams of saffron-robed monks, meet Ban Chok's chief and family in a traditional hamlet or charter Amantaka's riverboat and explore the Mekong's Pak Ou Cave, littered with statues of Buddha.
Romance
Amantaka offers spellbinding scenery, regal history and deep-rooted spirituality - a winning formula for romantic adventures. Stroll the city's age-old streets and enjoy private temple tours of works of genius, such as Wat Xieng Thong, visit the elephant sanctuary, then climb atop for a bird's-eye plod through lush jungles or visit another sanctuary looking after Asiatic black bears, with the chance to plunge into a magnificent tiered waterfall afterwards. How about floating along the Mekong River, especially wonderful at dusk, as the sun's last rays glow across the rainforest, cocktails and canapés included.
Hotel Experiences
In addition to the daily sunrise tak bat, (Alms Offering when monks and novices walk through the main street to accept alms) Amantaka's Floral Temple Offering gives guests a chance to observe local artists demonstrate their craft, shaping and designing religious floral decoration - guests can also assist in the creation of an offering (Vanh-Cornet) for the monks at a nearby temple.
Spa Breaks
Treatments, such as massages, facials, scrubs and exotic wraps, incorporate Southeast Asian techniques and Aman Spa's range of organic products. Try the traditional Laos massage in one of four spacious treatment rooms, accompanied by the soft lilt of therapeutic music. Alternatively, enjoy the comprehensive spa facilities, including steam rooms, saunas and hot and cold plunge pools.
