Amanwana has redefined “glamping” - with 20 tents set up in secluded locations, guests can choose to stay in a rainforest setting, or on the white sand beach by the shore. All safari-style tents offer an abundance of 21st-century comforts in the wild.
Amanwana is the only resort operating in the protected nature and marine reserves of Moyo Island. Located in the east of Bali, the 350-square-kilometer Moyo Island is surrounded by turquoise waters and untouched coral reefs, making it one of the world’s best destinations for PADI certified professional divers and snorkelers.
