The Grand Experience
Perched on an escarpment high above the sacred Ayung River Gorge in the cultural heartland of Ubud, Amandari ("peaceful spirits") is designed in the timeless architecture of a traditional Balinese village. Hand-carved Paras stone gateways, alang-alang thatched roofs, and winding river-stone walkways link 30 standalone walled pavilions and villas nestled among coconut palms and lotus ponds. Overlooking tiered emerald rice paddies and the misty river gorge, the resort features a signature curved green infinity pool mirroring the terraced valleys, open-air teak dining, an intimate Aman Spa surrounded by tranquil lotus ponds, and deep spiritual immersion into the artisan rhythms of Kedewatan village.
Conceived by master architect Peter Muller to harmoniously coexist with the surrounding community, Amandari honors sacred ancestral walkways where local villagers still process to ceremonies at riverside shrines. Guests enter private walled courtyards through authentic stone shrines, unwinding in open pavilions featuring sunken marble bathtubs, hand-woven coconut wood furniture, and daybeds framed by panoramic jungle canopies.
