villa looks great, not sure how pool suites compare
Amanbadu is located in northwestern Jordan on the fringes of the Dibeen nature reserve and close to the historical city of Jerash. The buildings forming the resort have been carefully placed within the existing forest of Aleppo pines. The design has been supported by an extensive arboreal effort to conserve the natural landscape.
The resort comprises 30 suites, 24 villas, and guest facilities including a dining room, a library, a meeting room, a pool care, a heated pool, and a destination spa. The architectural form, while contemporary, is inspired by the cubist forms of Jordanian buildings. The limited palette of materials and colours is derived from the region's landscapes and archaeological sites, making extensive use of local stone for exteriors and interiors.
The interiors are kept simple and homogenous in harmony with the calmness of the forest. Floor coverings and accessories have been designed in collaboration with local weavers to reflect the varied and rich indigenous craft.
The individual villas are arranged around a central courtyard and a 50 square meters outdoor heated pool Each comprises three hotel suite modules together with a living and dining room and a dedicated service building. The manner in which these spaces are combined varies to suit the topography, maintain privacy, and maximize views of the forest.
