Seminyak Hideout: The Amala and Bamboo Restaurant

One of the most important elements in life is balance: a balance between work and play; nature and nurture; simplicity and complexity; and so on. Balance provides us with the ability to appreciate contradictory things at two ends of the spectrum. This idea is literally translated by The Amala, where the completely peaceful villas are providing a balance to the hustle and bustle of the lively Seminyak.

Stepping inside The Amala makes you wonder whether you’re truly in Seminyak. The area is identical to rows of cute cafés and modern hotels, but The Amala gives you bamboo trees, pretty gardens, lotus ponds—everything natural. Enter your own private villa, and indulge yourself in a luxurious tropical hideaway right in the middle of Bali.

While there are no shortage of dining options in the area, definitely give the in-house Bamboo Restaurant a try. Its open air design is guaranteed to refresh your mind and make you appreciate the relaxing atmosphere of the entire space. Bamboo Restaurant offers a variety of healthy food—using organic and raw ingredients whenever possible—in Indonesian, South East Asian, and Western flavours.
