On the tropical island of Bali, Amanusa has just 35 thatch-roof suites on the property. You'll enjoy tranquility at the pool, on the beach, and the golf course (depending on your game, of course.)
EXPERIENCE
At the intimate, luxury resort Amanusa, they do the little things right: a cold drink and towel when you arrive, treats left on your pillow, friendly staff that know your name. Of course, they do the big things right too: a setting overlooking the Indian Ocean, a beautiful beach, and an 18-hole ocean and jungle view golf course.
Amanusa has 35 thatch-roof suites scattered amid leafy greenery. There's no shortage of places to put your feet up, or cuddle with someone special, between the canopied day bed and your private outdoor garden and terrace. Lounging is also encouraged around the pool and, of course, down at the Beach Club.
Speaking of which, that's the place to go to relax, drink, and dine. And we're not just talking burgers and mojitos. Get romantic with a candle-lit barbecue, or take your breakfast in a private bale as the sun rises. The coral reef offshore keeps the waters calm, and also attracts countless colorful tropical fish, so pack your snorkels or scuba gear.
