Hotel Description
The resort is built on four levels. Guests are received in a columned,
open-air setting. The Bar and the Restaurant are located one level
below. From there, steps lead down to the library, the Gallery,
the Terrace Restaurant and the three-tiered swimming pool. The Beach
Club, which spreads in and about a mature coconut grove, is down
at the beach.
Room
Facilities
Amankila’s 35 free-standing suites, with their alang alang roof
thatching, respond to their East Bali surroundings, in particular
to Ujung, the royal water palace just outside Amlapura, the area’s
capital. Each suite features a large bedroom with wide window views,
a canopied, four-pillar bed, a writing desk and music system. The
bathroom is divided into two distinct sections. A deep soaking tub
and a divan face each other, each backing on to large, double windows.
A separate shower is located next to the tub, while the toilet room
is adjacent to the divan. A separate space is dominated by double
terrazzo vanities, fitted with seashell-finished taps. Large coconut-shell
dressing areas claim both ends of the rattan terrazzo-tiled room.
The outdoor terrace of each suite enjoys a large daybed, a coconut-shell
table and rattan chairs.
Nine suites, including the Amankila Suite, the Indrakila Suite
and the Kilasari Suite, come with private pools. Three of Amankila’s
pool suites connect to deluxe suites; a fourth pool suite is linked
to a superior suite.
The Amankila Suite includes two separate bedroom pavilions in
an expansive and private compound. The Amankila Suite is graced
with an aquamarine-tiled swimming pool flanked by a bale and a
lily pond at each end of a long, sea-facing terrace. The Indrakila
Suite enjoys privileged sea views far up the east coast. The Kilasari
Suite is perched high on the hillside, with partial sea views
and a separate entrance.
Hotel Facilities
Facilities include a Restaurant, a Library, Beach Club and Shop,
Amankila also keeps a bale in the mountains for picnic breakfasts
and lunches. The thatched-roof hut overlooks hills and valleys,
stands of banana trees, fields of rice and, in the distance, the
sea and Amankila, too.
Others Services
Touring is particularly rewarding in East Bali. Highlights include
the royal palaces of Klungkung and Karangasem and the water palaces
of Tirtagangga, now a public bathing area, and Ujung, a grand ruin.
Countryside trips can be arranged to the many villages and the rural
life that spreads out from Amankila. Two of the island’s most important
temples Lempuyang and Besakih, the island’s mother temple are located
in East Bali. The trekking is also fine, and Amankila keeps six
full-suspension mountain bikes for guest use.
