I was to stay at the Amanjiwo resort and was met by the Aman representative, Pak Didit, who introduced himself and ushered me to wait in the comfort of the airport lounge while he went off to collect my luggage.

A Serene Haven in Natural Setting at MAYA UBUD RESORT & SPA

The resort’s design is inspired by the ancient Balinese wisdom of orientation.
