Our thoughts

Amankila is a haven of seclusion, with its stunning cliff-top position overlooking the Lombok Strait. Chic and understated, it is designed in the traditional architectural style of the region and is definitely one of the most romantic destinations in Bali. The property is close to Manggis, Candi Dasa, Tenganan and other villages with a rich craft tradition to discover.
