quotes from the media

"I return to my suite leaving my muddy runners outside the door but next morning they have disappeared. As I open cupboards and look under the bed, the doorbell chimes and there, on a silver tray, are my shoes - at least I think they're mine as there's not a hint of mud anywhere and I admit I am impressed. It's all part of the outstanding service at Amandari."

"Balinese-style gateway lead to thatch-roofed suites, all in individual walled courtyards. From my spacious suite, I can see villagers going about their daily life, working in the rice fields, playing with their young children or heading to the temple. The villagers use the hotel's pathways to access their rice fields while their children practise traditional dances in the resort's open-air lobby, which is designed like a wantilan - or village meeting place." 

"At Aman’s three Bali properties, Amanusa, Amankila and Amandari, the above and beyond luxury includes complimentary transfers to and from the airport in a luxury car by a staff driver with cold towels and refreshments at the ready, a small snack and your choice of music for the ride. Poolside guests are delivered scented cold towels, iced water, sunscreen, woven fans and an occasional treat from the kitchen. Your shoes, if left outside your door, are cleaned nightly and returned within 24 hours. Fresh fruit trays are delivered daily to the rooms. The complimentary Aman tea service is served at around 4pm daily at every Aman resort around the world with local teas, coffees and sweet snacks. Room servicing occurs when guests are away from the room requiring much coordination on the part of the staff. In fact, the delivery of this kind of seamless service at any resort only happens when there’s a high staff to guest ratio..."

“I suggest trying one of Amandari's offerings: they will give you an in-depth perspective on the wonders of the island. End your day with one of the best reflexology massages on the planet and you will count the days until you'll be back.”

“Two decades on, Amandari has some of the best cultural programs of any resort; it’s been here long enough to cultivate lasting connections.”

“Still the most atmospheric place from which to feel the island’s soul.”

“Amandari is a stunning example of the contemporary adaptation of traditional values.”
