Located at the foot of sacred Mount Phousi, Amantaka is a tranquil oasis in the heart of Luang Prabang, Laos. Radiating serenity across its manicured lawns, bamboo gardens, and towering palms, the property exudes the calm of a Laotian temple. Across the property, a collection of russet roof French colonial bungalows embodies Indochine minimalism. Think: limewashed walls, French doors and windows, soaring ceilings, courtyards, shutters, four-poster beds, and cane accent chairs. There are 24 suites at Amantaka, most boasting a private pool and garden.
When your appetite stirs, head to The Restaurant where breakfast, lunch, and dinner are all served. Beneath lofty ceilings, take a seat in a rattan chair for Laotian specialties and French-influenced dishes. For more casual fare, the al fresco Pool Terrace serves a confluence of Lao and Western plates for lunch and dinner. After dark, sip a signature Makkam cocktail (a ginger and lemongrass spin on a mojito) in the candlelight of the Lounge.
Don’t leave Amantaka without sampling a sublime spa treatment. Housed within a contemplative space that includes a steam room, sauna, cold plunge, and a yoga studio, four unfussy treatment rooms offer a menu rooted in Lao well-being that grounds, purifies, and nourishes. Services range from arrhythmic oil-free Laotian massage to herbs poultices and crystal theory.
Amantaka is Luang Prabang’s most exclusive accommodation and will appeal to reclusive guests who want a refined, discreet stay.
