About Amanwana

Insider tip

Take the river excursion that includes swimming in emerald waters under gentle waterfalls. If you're really adventurous (and physically fit), hike to the bat cave. –David Lowy, Renshaw Travel

There are few camps more remote than Amanwana – just 12 tents spread along the jungle shores of Moyo, a far-flung private island in the Indonesian archipelago. With no other human habitation, privacy is unparalleled. Start your journey with a relaxing night at Aman Villas at Nusa Dua, then step into a natural Eden on arrival at Amanwana. Book five or more tents for three or five nights to experience the island’s abundant natural treasures exclusively, as well as full board, jungle treks, massages, snorkelling, waterfall visits and more.

Amanwana (peaceful forest) a wilderness hideaway and eco-initiative on the nature reserve of Moyo Island east of Bali, on the western edge of the Nusa Tenggara island chain. Lodging is in luxury tents, with wall dives directly offshore, jungle treks to waterfalls and limestone pools, as well as spa treatments, among the activities. The sheltered waters of the Flores Sea around Amanwana are ideal for game fishing, cruising, snorkeling and scuba diving, from beginner to advanced levels. Amanwana's dive operation and fleet of sea-going vessels opens up for its guests a unique experience of one of the world's most pristine marine environments.

Amanwana's 12 luxurious air-conditioned tents are 58-square-metres, partially enclosed by a solid wall. There is a soft waterproof external roof and a separate canvas interior. A coral-stone deck surrounds each tent. Inside, the air-conditioned tents feature banks of windows, Indonesian island artwork, a sitting area with facing divans, king-size bed, a writing desk and a large bathroom. There is hardwood flooring throughout.

The Dining Room and Bar are located in an open-air pavilion facing the sea. Indonesian hardwood flooring and solid coconut pillars support the tropical structure. A selection of Asian and Western food is served at breakfast, lunch and dinner. In season, a regular alfresco barbecue is available as are Campfire dinners.

Located at the far end of the camp, a few metres from the shoreline, the Music Pavilion is a forest sanctuary. Here, you can listen to music, order picnic lunch and a bottle of wine, enjoy afternoon tea or a sunset cocktail.

There are five Aman resorts in Indonesia and five distinctly different resorts and surroundings to experience - Amanwana, Amandari, Amanjiwo, Amankila and Aman Villas at Nusa Dua.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does booking through Rialto cost more than booking with the hotel?

No - VIP rates under Virtuoso always meet or beat hotel's public, flexible rate, and provide valuable amenities and possible upgrades. Rialto also provides the hotel's non-VIP and corporate rates, so you can compare with full transparency.

What is the value of the VIP benefits?

Daily breakfast for two plus the $100 hotel credit come with every stay at this hotel - adding $100-200/day in value. A room upgrade could also be worth a substantial amount, in addition to early check-in / late check-out benefits when available.

How does this compare to other programs, like through AMEX Fine Hotels & Resorts, or Chase Edit?

Using a hotel's own VIP program may provide higher upgrade priority, additional VIP benefits and promotional rate offers, and a direct relationship with the hotel for special requests. Rialto offers more VIP hotels than any credit card program. In addition, Chase Edit rates can be substantially more expensive as they rarely run promotions whereas AMEX rates are often comparable but do not offer programs such as Upgrade at Booking.

Can my AI assistant book this hotel?

Yes. Connect Rialto to Claude or ChatGPT and ask for rates. You finish the booking on a secure Rialto page. Card details are not sent through the AI chat, so either you would approve the final checkout step and reconfirm all the information, or if you authorize your agent with Computer-Use permissions, it can fill out the checkout form as well.
