Amandari or ‘peaceful spirits,’ embraces the quintessence of Bali’s ancient striking traditions, reflecting the harmony and inner peace of a people whose lifeblood is a manifestation of a combined dedication to virtuousness, warmth and inner prosperity.
Amandari opened in 1989. It is located five minutes from the art community of Ubud, in Central Bali. The village of Kedewatan lies adjacent to the resort. Designed as a Balinese village. Amandari in Ubud has river-stone walkways and high paras-stone walls.
The open-air lobby was designed after a wantilan, a village meeting place. The pathway that runs through Amandari in Ubud and down the valley to the river below is sacred land.
Every six months for hundreds of years, Balinese people have taken the path down to a pool of holy water. Just above this spring-fed pool sit three modest shrines and an ancient tiger carved into rock.
