SPA & WELLNESS

Amidst the beauty of the island’s nature, here one can take the time and space to reconnect with your inner self. Not your traditional spa, Amanwana offers an alternative to the regime and routine. The Spa was conceived and created to blend Indonesian-influenced techniques with the best of the East and the West.

Aman Signature Ritual – Purifying Massage  – The Purifying Rituals are informed by the powers of water, with its vitalising spiritual energy and cleansing ability. Incorporating ingredients such as juniper berry, rose geranium, raw honey and pearl, the treatments utilise their anti-ageing and nurturing characteristics. A powerful spiritual cleanser than lends protection, clears stagnant prana or chi, stabilises the heart and mind and eases restless agitation, it helps let go of unhelpful energies and emotions, providing lightness of step and breathing space for the mind, body and soul.

Indonesian Milk Bath  – After a relaxing 60-minute Amanwana massage, a gentle white rice and white turmeric body scrub exfoliates and prepares the skin before the application of a natural detoxifying mask made from milk powder, white clay and honey. After the mask, enjoy a warm herbal milk bath. This treatment leaves the skin soft and supple.

Javanese Lulur Body  – Treatment This traditional Javanese cleansing treatment starts with a 60-minute Amanwana Massage. Afterwards, a white rice and turmeric herbal body scrub to soften the skin is applied, followed by honey yoghurt. The treatment finishes off with a soak in an herbal bath (lime, lemongrass, cinnamon, ginger) to calm the body and mind.
