“Incredible. Best ever!!!”

Absolutely Incredible! I don’t even know where to start. We are just leaving the Amandari and have had the best 3 days here. The hotel is amazing in every way but the service is even better.

Absolutely Incredible! I don’t even know where to start. We are just leaving the Amandari and have had the best 3 days here. The hotel is amazing in every way but the service is even better. Everyone was so great to us. The staff thought of everything and anticipated our every need and request. We have traveled a great deal and stayed in some amazing hotels over the years. The Amandari is up there as top 5 ever…and that’s over 40 years or so of travel. Thank you to EVERYONE at the hotel for making our stay so special.

“A peaceful spirit in Ubud!”

There are very few places in the world we return to every single year, no matter how full our calendars become. This is one of them, and we always go out of our way to be here.

There are very few places in the world we return to every single year, no matter how full our calendars become. This is one of them, and we always go out of our way to be here. For us, it ultimately comes down to two deeply compelling reasons. First, the spiritual connection. The land itself feels profoundly special—quiet, grounding, and almost reverent. The grounds exude serenity, while the standalone villas pay beautiful homage to timeless Balinese culture, creating a sense of place that feels both authentic and enduring. Second, the people. This is among the rare places where you arrive as a guest and leave feeling like part of the family, a warmth that cannot be taught, only genuinely felt. The culinary experience continues to evolve meaningfully, improving with every visit and reinforcing our desire to return. We also love the boutique, where a thoughtful curation of in-house brands and works by local artisans strikes a perfect balance—distinctive, refined, and quietly exquisite. Quite simply, this is not just a destination we visit—it is a place we are drawn back to, year after year.

We recently spent a truly memorable evening at Amandari in Ubud, a timeless hideaway tucked into a Balinese village with sweeping, uninterrupted jungle views. The night began with sundowners at the bar, watching the sun sink into the valley as small oil lanterns were lit. Dinner followed in the semi–open-air restaurant — an experience that felt more like being welcomed into a friend’s beautifully kept home than dining at a hotel. The atmosphere recalls the Bali of another era — serene, intimate and rich with a sense of place. The food echoed that spirit. Every dish carried authentic Indonesian character, and the Sop Buntut was easily the best we’ve ever tasted — deeply comforting and absolutely worth ordering. Amandari remains true to its original 1989 design, impeccably maintained and exuding Balinese culture, heritage and old-world charm. A highlight of the evening was our conversation with Pak Erik, the hospitable and knowledgeable Food & Beverage Manager, whose stories about the resort, Ubud and Bali’s myth and magic added an extra layer. An exceptional choice for anyone seeking an exclusive, authentic Balinese dining experience with a true sense of place.

Our stay at Amandari was nothing short of magical. Nestled into the lush Ubud jungle, the resort feels like a serene sanctuary, where timeless Balinese design and understated luxury come together in perfect harmony. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the beauty and peacefulness of the property. The stone pathways, traditional thatched-roof villas, and infinity pool overlooking the Ayung Valley create an atmosphere that feels both intimate and deeply connected to nature. The villas themselves are spacious, elegant, and calming, with every detail reflecting Amandari’s commitment to authenticity and comfort. Waking up to the sounds of the jungle and enjoying quiet moments on the terrace was unforgettable. The service was flawless — warm, discreet, and thoughtful. Every interaction felt genuine, with the team making us feel both at home and completely cared for. Dining was also a highlight, with dishes that celebrate local flavours while maintaining Amandari’s refined touch. Amandari captures the essence of Ubud: spiritual, tranquil, and timeless. It is more than just a hotel; it’s an experience that lingers long after you leave. Truly the perfect retreat for anyone seeking peace, beauty, and classic Aman luxury.
