Amanusa Resort is well sited for starting or ending a tour of
Bali as it is only 25 minutes south of Denpasar
International Airport. It is also an ideal base
to explore the nearby beaches of Sanur, Legian
and Kuta, which have the most established shops
and restaurants on the island.
Amanusa (which
means “peaceful isle” and opened in 1992)
enjoys a commanding position on a garden hillside
in southern Bali just above the Bali Golf and Country
Club.
Views run from the adjacent Indian Ocean
shoreline to sacred Mount Agung that dominates
the far horizon on a clear day.
The entrance to the lobby is a colonnaded open-air
hall lined with baskets of white tuberoses.
Framing
the foyer is a teak sculpture illustrating scenes
from the Ramayana, one of the two great epic poems
of India.
Amanusa has 35 thatched-roof
suites set behind foliage and mossy paras stone walls
for added privacy and linked by paved walkways.
All
the suites have four-poster beds and round tables
for private dining, a sunken indoor bath, outdoor
shower, a garden courtyard and a terrace with a spacious
canopied day bed.
Deluxe Suites:
These suites have extensive views of the
golf course or the Ocean.
Pool Suites:
Eight suites have private swimming pools
and a spacious terrace.
The Terrace offers sweeping
views of Bali, embracing the golf course, the
Indian Ocean, Nusa Dua and the Bukit, which is
Bali’s southern peninsula. During the day
it is open for breakfast and lunch, serving a
variety of Asian and Continental dishes, while
in the evenings it offers a range of Indonesian
and Thai dishes. Just below, the Restaurant specialises
in Mediterranean cuisine, which is served in
an elegant room with high ceilings or in the
outdoor courtyard surrounded by flowering frangipani
trees which overlook the pool.
Swimming Pool:
The large 24m blue pool is bordered
by a bougainvillea-covered trellis, flowering
frangipani trees and a high paras-stone wall.
Boutique and Gallery:
Balinese and Indonesian craft and antiques as
well as other gift items are available.
Tennis:
Amanusa's two, all-weather tennis courts
are floodlit for evening play. Attendants are
available as playing partners or ball boys.
A bale is located between the courts for shady
breaks of iced chrysanthemum tea and refreshments.
Massage and Beauty Treatments:
Amanusa's resident
masseuses mix traditional Balinese massage
with Swedish massage and acupressure. Massage
is available in the privacy of your suite,
in the specially-designated massage suite or
on one of the Beach bales. Body treatments
as well as facials, pedicures and manicures
are also available. Amanusa's reiki master
is on hand to redress any energy imbalances
and a reflexologist is available once a week.
