Agent Tips

  • Try the Mind, Body and Soul journey for a discovery of cultural, spiritual and wellness experiences
  • Definitely opt into to a private temple and village walk. A local guide will take you across the Mekong River to journey into the village where he grew up. There, meet young Buddhist monks for a truly magical experience only Aman could create.
  • For an extra special experience, visit the morning market with the chef to learn about local ingredients and pick out dinner. Then, journey over to the organic farm, where you'll use the market ingredients to partake in a cooking class.
  • Ask your SmartFlyer travel advisor about arranging time with an expert guide – whether you're joining the morning alms-giving tradition, strolling through the UNESCO-protected Old Town, cruising the Mekong River to sacred caves, or exploring the natural wonders of the surrounding countryside.
Rooms + Suites

A former French colonial outpost transformed into a lush garden retreat.

White-walled and green-shuttered, the period building retains all the tranquility of its past. You would never know you’re nestled in the midst of Luang Prabang, a UNESCO protected old town. Each room has its own vibe of calm and comfort with a zen pool anchoring the estate.

Drawing on the town’s Buddhist heritage, Amantaka’s suites are peaceful sanctuaries that feel close to nature. Accessible via a courtyard through louvered doors, suites have high wooden ceilings, large windows, freestanding bathtubs, king-size four-posters and private outdoor areas. Arguably the best part of all the rooms is the myriad of bathing options; guests can shower inside where there’s a huge soaking tub, or listen to nature while standing under a rain shower in their outdoor private terrace.

Pool + Gym

Ultimate relaxation.

The property has a twenty-six-meter main pool lined with beautiful dark green tiles for ultimate relaxation. Or, if guests want to be more active, there's a fully equipped gym and yoga studio which overlook the central pool.
