Amari to enter Indonesia with its first resort in Bali
Thailand-based ONYX Hospitality Group has been appointed to operate the first Amari-branded resort on the Indonesian island of Bali.
The 435-room Amari Pecatu, a joint venture between STA Group Property Division and PR Bali Pecatu Graha, is scheduled to open in 2015.
Located on the southern peninsula of Bali, Pecatu is known as a surfer's paradise with limestone cliffs and beautiful, secluded beaches.
The new property will be part of the 400-hectare Pecatu Indah Resort, an integrated development with planned facilities including a shopping mall and conference venues that can accommodate up to 12,000 people. It is already home to an 18-hole golf course, designed by golf architect Ronald Fream.
Amari Pecatu will feature 385 luxury rooms, 10 junior suites and 40 villas ranging from 54 to 400 sq m (581–4,305 sq ft) in size. The design concept for the resort is a collaboration between Bangkok based Open Air Studio and Broadway Malyan.
The resort will house a Breeze Spa, fitness centre, two destination restaurants, a lounge and bar, sea view swimming pool, as well as a retail area within the central reception area.
ONYX President and chief executive officer, Peter Henley, said: “This will be the first Amari property in Indonesia, and as such, a significant milestone for us. We look forward to the exciting times ahead as we work closely with our partners to support the on-going development of Pecatu as a vibrant tourism destination in Bali.”
