Hotel information
Built along the contours of two beautiful headlands, this elegant resort mirrors the flowing natural setting, with tropical groves sloping down to an idyllic beach.
Mount Agung provides a dramatic backdrop for Amankila (peaceful hill), a secluded cliff-side beach resort overlooking the Lombok Strait in East Bali. Situated in Karangasem, Bali’s most traditional regency just 90 minutes by car from Denpasar Airport, the resort offers 31 stilted suites with spectacular ocean views. Amankila’s freestanding suites subtly reflect their East Bali surroundings with particular reference to nearby Taman Soekasada Ujung, the Royal Water Palace. Twelve suites, including the Kilasari and Indrakila Suites and the twobedroom Amankila Suite, feature private swimming pools. All are connected by elevated walkways to the resort’s entrance pavilion and restaurant areas.
The resort’s signature restaurant, Sandikala is located above the resort’s signature three-tier swimming pool overlooking the ocean and serves both Western and Indonesian cuisines. Adjacent is Amankila’s Bar, also offering views out to sea. The Terrace, set back from the main swimming pool, serves a selection of Asian and Western fare. A simple menu of salads and pizzas is available at the Beach Club.
Located below the resort, the Beach Club is set back from the beach in a peaceful coconut grove. Surrounded by coconut palms and partially shaded by a frangipani tree is Amankila’s largest swimming pool, overlooked by the Beach Club terrace restaurant. Eight secluded lounging bales line the beach.
Amankila’s additional facilities include the Fitness Pavilion and the Massage Pavilion. Two teakwood massage tables are hidden in the coconut grove alongside the Beach Club, and yoga classes can be taken in the coconut grove or in-suite. The Library overlooks the top tier of Amankila’s main swimming pool, while the Boutique and Gallery showcase Balinese art, crafts and antiques.
Amankila offers a range of activities including water sports, cooking classes, snorkelling excursions and sunset cruises. Guests keen to explore farther afield can enjoy guided treks and cycling tours or visit local craft villages
