Anda Amed Resort
Anda Amed Resort is situated in the north east of Bali facing out across the sea towards Lombok. The Amed area is often referred to as the “REAL” Bali. We are only a two hour drive from the hustle and bustle of Kuta and Denpasar but the difference is remarkable. Amed is just a 2 hour drive from the airport and Kuta. The road follows the east coast, through the terraced rice fields of Tirta Ganga before arriving here at the Anda Amed Resort.
Time is not measured in hours and weeks here but by the setting and rising of the sun and the appearance of the full moon. By the gentle sea breezes of the dry season and the monsoonal downpours of the wet season. Here life continues onwards as it always has done - with a calmness and tranquility that leaves the mind and body soothed and peaceful.
