Amankila Hotel, Candidasa - Bali Indonesia

AMANKILA HOTEL

- Bali is located at the heart of the Indonesian archipelago. Its north coast faces the Bali Sea while the southern coast is lapped by the Indian Ocean. The island is just two kilometres off the eastern tip of Java. Bali is one of the most accessible destinations in Southeast Asia with daily flights from most major cities in Asia and Australia. Travellers from the United States or Europe tend to fly via Singapore or Hong Kong. There are also domestic flights from the surrounding islands and ferry connections. Amankila is one hour from the airport, Amanusa 15 minutes, and Amandari 45 minutes by complimentary transfer. Helicopter transfers to Amankila are also available. Air transfer from the airport is only 15 minutes.

Amankila (which means peaceful hill) opened in 1992 set on a cliffside overlooking the Lombok Strait in East Bali. Below the resort is its private stretch of sand and beach club. From the intimate, airy lobby, the views are already very much in evidence. The resort is close to Manggis, Candi Dasa, Tenganan and other villages in Karangasem, Bali’s most traditional regency.

Amankila’s suites are elevated to take advantage of the spectacular views to the sea and surrounding hillsides. The 34 free-standing suites, with their alang alang roof thatching, are fashioned as beach houses with a twist. They reflect the lines and flow of their East Bali surroundings, in particular the royal water palace just outside Amlapura, the district’s capital. All suites are connected to the reception and restaurant area by stepped walkways.

Garden Suite:
Each suite features a large bedroom with wide window views, a canopied, king-size bed and a writing desk. The bathroom is divided, with a window-side divan, a soaking tub and separate shower and toilet rooms which give way to coconut-shell dressing areas and double terrazzo vanities. The suite’s outdoor terrace is furnished with a daybed, coconut-shell table and rattan chairs.

Ocean Suite:
These are identical to Garden Suites but have better Ocean views.

Pool Suite:
Private swimming pools, enclosed within walls are featured in nine of the suites, three of which can be connected to deluxe suites and one to a superior suite if a family or group of friends wish to have more privacy.

Kilasari Suite:
The Kilasari Suite, which takes its name from Amankila’s main temple, is perched high on the hillside, with views overlooking the sea and its own 12-metre infinity pool.

Indrakila Suite:
Named after the green hill upon which Amankila sits, this suite enjoys privileged sea views past the temple point and far up the East coast, its own lounging bale and private pool.

Amankila Suite:
This suite includes two separate pavilions opening onto a large terrace with a private aquamarine-tile pool, two lounging bales, sun beds, lily ponds, limitless views over the beach and Amuk bay and includes private butler service. It is ideal for guests who want complete privacy or for two couples who wish to stay together.

Other facilities & Services
Beach Club:

Snorkelling equipment, windsurfers, boogie boards, kayaks and hobie-cats are located at the Beach Club.

Eight private lounging bales are set in the sand, each secluded amongst the foliage for added privacy. Drinks and light meals can be enjoyed here.

Swimming Pools:
Aside from the Beach Club pool, Amankila’s signature three-tier pool dominates the landscape just below the lobby. Set into the cliff-edge, the blue-tiled pools face the sea and flow one into the other, stepping down like terraced fields. The main pool is 41 metres in length.
