Stats

When we knew we’d have several hours between our seaplane transfer and our departure from Bali, we contacted Amanusa GM Monty and arranged a day rate.

Service

People were very warm to us but not many seemed to know who we were. For a 6 hour stay, how could they? But when we left a full restaurant after lunch, the bill found its way to our account without anyone having to ask for our room number.

Decor and Room

This is a gorgeous hotel and so much fancier and newer than the other Amans on Bali. We loved all of the marble and elaborate stonework. Our room (#15) had two outdoor terraces, a canopy bed, a water garden that wrapped around the tub and outdoor shower, and a lovely bale overlooking the golf course. I’m sorry we weren’t there overnight as I’m sure the architectural lighting is otherworldly.

Dining

We had lunch at The Terrace which was very busy. I suspect local people and tourists from other hotels dine here as well. The food was wonderful and they did a great job with one of my special orders.

Activities

That afternoon, we took the VW Thing to the beach and enjoyed the great service from our beach bale. On the way back, our driver stopped when he noticed a traditional ceremony underway (we won’t discuss the details as it’s not really PC by western standards). When we thanked him for sharing this impromptu moment with us, he told us how much fun it was for him to share. “My job is my hobby. My hobby is my job.” And that pretty well sums up why we try to include an Aman in all of our vacations.
