Amanwana’s privileged site sits East of Bali, on the island of Moyo, at the western end of the Nusa Tenggara islands, which begin with Lombok and end in the east with Timor. Moyo is just 350km², and the vegetation varies with verdant intensity from Savannah to jungle. The tropical island is caressed by the crystal clear, aqua tinted, Flores Sea.

location & map


Just east of Bali lies the nature reserve of Moyo Island that plays host to Amanwana. Fifteen kilometres off the coast of Sumbawa, Moyo is at the western end of the Nusa Tenggara islands, a grouping that begins with Lombok and stretches some 1,300km east to Timor. Bali is the international gateway. It is one of the most accessible destinations in South-East Asia with daily flights from most major cities in Asia and Australia. Travellers from the United States or Europe tend to fly via Singapore or Hong Kong. There are also domestic flights from the surrounding islands and ferry connections.

Guests may fly from Bali to Moyo Island in a turboprop jet engine floatplane which lands in the bay directly in front of Amanwana, weather permitting. Scheduled flights are available three times a week between May and October and over the Christmas holidays. Flying time is approximately one hour and guests need to check-in at Denpasar airport only ¾ hour before the flight. The eight-seater Cessna Caravan amphibian floatplane has a strict baggage allowance of 15kg per person. The cost of transfer between Bali and Moyo Island is US$400 nett per person each way. See flight schedule for details  read more 

Guests may also charter the Cessna Caravan at a one-way cost of US$3,500 including taxes, weather permitting. Flights are subject to availability and rates quoted are subject to change without notice.

A second option is via Trans Nusa which operates a 52-seater plane from Bali to Sumbawa with a short stop-over in Lombok. Flights are available three times a week, year-round and guests are picked up from Sumbawa airport and transferred to Amanwana by a leisurely cruise. Total transfer time is three hours at a cost of US$150 nett per person each way. See flight schedule for details  read more 

Guests may also choose to fly by helicopter. A helicopter landing area near the camp allows for direct access to Amanwana from Bali and helicopter pads are conveniently located close to the Bali resorts Amanusa, Amandari and Amankila. Bali Helicopters operates a Bell 206B Jetranger that accommodates two passengers with a maximum payload (passengers plus baggage) of 190kg. The cost of a one-way transfer is US$5,350 nett.
