Amanusa Resort Nusa Dua, Bali - From its hilltop location in southern Bali, Amanusa (peaceful isle) is blessed with tropical island views. The Bali Golf and Country club unfolds immediately below Amanusa. From the rolling green hills, the view runs north to the sea and beyond to volcanic Mount Agung. On a clear morning, the horizon is full with Bali's mountains. To the northeast, the island of Nusa Penida is visible. In the east, just a few hundred meters away, the sea is cut with a barrier reef made for surfing. 

Despite its exclusive setting, Amanusa resort may be Amanresorts most central hideaway. Bali's international airport and the beach world of Kuta are both about 20 minutes from Amanusa; Denpasar, the island capital, is 30 minutes from the resort.
