PB hotel design editorial

Carved into the vertiginous jungle cliffs of Bali's eastern Karangasem regency, where the island faces Lombok across the Lombok Strait, the fifty-four suite Amankila opened in 1992 as one of Ed Tuttle's most assured statements of site-responsive tropical architecture. Tuttle, the Paris-based American designer responsible for much of the early Aman vocabulary, answered the near-vertical terrain by cascading a series of thatched-roof pavilions down the hillside in tiers, each stepping lower toward a triple-level infinity pool that dissolves, on clear mornings, into an unbroken horizon of turquoise water. The massing borrows the alang-alang thatch and carved timber column capitals of traditional Balinese architecture without attempting literal reproduction — instead distilling vernacular form into something more elemental and geometrically precise. Inside the suites, the language holds. Hand-carved teak columns with lotus-capital detailing support steeply pitched alang-alang ceilings, while pale polished stone floors and cream-linen built-in daybeds absorb afternoon light filtering through louvered timber panels. The dining pavilion, open on all sides to the hillside and sea, anchors a mature tree within a massive carved stone urn at its center — flanked by cane-and-teak chairs and dark lacquered table surfaces, lit at dusk by brass column torches against the woven bamboo ceiling above. The restaurant terrace frames the bay of Amuk below in a view that the architecture appears to have been arranged, quite deliberately, to make inevitable.

"A beautiful escape from the daily grind. My wife and I spent a long weekend here. Pickup from the airport was smooth in a luxury car, with a knowledgeable and professional driver. The resort is nestled away in some cliffside jungle with beautiful architecture. We were greeted by the manager and shown to our room set in the jungle space with elevated bridges between rooms and facilities. We only left the property for one day on a guided tour by the driver, the rest of the time we relaxed by the pool or at the beach in the service cabanas. We were fortunate enough to be upgraded for 2 nights to their top villa which was enormous. Right on the cliffside overlooking the water. The only downsides to the trip, due to changes in shipping routes there were 6-12 large vessels anchored in the view at any one time. Some of them you could hear the hum of their engines. There was also construction at the property, heavy machinery digging into the cliffs for new villas. While the noise was extremely noticeable in the villa, we hardly heard it by the water at the beach. Overall a thoroughly relaxing resort to do nothing but eat drink swim and relax."

"Away from the hustle and bustle Amankila is a peaceful haven with lovely villas and breathtaking views. The Aman brand does not fail and this one is another gem worth visiting. The food is high quality, may it be Asian or Italian. The service is top of course as what is Aman famous for. The pool area is an architectural piece and a great place to lounge after a day at the beach. We usually take our afternoon tea there and just chill before watching the cultural dance they present once a week. Breakfat is a delightful time, great menu and great service. We also attended a Hindu blessing which is a first for us. Its such a lovely experience and we would like to thank the staff, chef and manager for this unforgettble experience."

"This was our first stay at an Aman property and it did not disappoint. The room was a little outdated, but the amazing service and beautiful view completely made up for it. We opted to do a trip to Tenganan and were lucky enough to have our driver show us around the village - definitely recommend if you want hand crafted local souvenirs. This stay made our honeymoon so memorable and we cannot wait to get to our next Aman resort."
