"The isolation and expansiveness of the hotel may frustrate more social travelers, but you'd be hard-pressed to find a resort more perfectly configured for a couple's escape."

"Amanpuri aptly reflects the tranquility and peace after which it is named. This luxurious pavilion and villa complex, nestled within coconut groves, overlooks a white sand beach."
Star Service

"This all villa property is on a steep hill just south of the main resort, and aims directly at the romantic getaway market with its secluded, luxurious pool villas; in fact, no children under 12-years-old are allowed to stay here"
