Amanemu
Amanemu embraces the ancient Japanese bathing tradition of onsen, using nutrient-rich thermal springs to provide a contemplative and restorative retreat set among serene natural surroundings.
Nestled within the landscape with scenic views out to the bay or gardens, the Suites are abound in elegant simplicity. Each of the 24 Suites measure 99 square metres (1,065 square feet) and feature a private onsen. Generous terraces provide maximum enjoyment of the natural surroundings in all seasons.
With a light-filled atmosphere and emphasis on natural materials and soothing hues, Amanemu’s Villas each feature two bedrooms spread across 366 square metres (3,940 square feet). Woven textile shutters can be opened to embrace the outdoors, and each Villa features a private onsen, kitchen and powder room.
The hills above Ago Bay are the serene setting of Amanemu, situated close to the holy Shinto site of Ise Grand Shrine. The UNESCO World Heritage-designated Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trails can also be visited. The region’s natural beauty takes centre stage as the seasons change, offering opportunities to discover cultural treasures and witness the pearl rafts and oyster divers in the bay.
Centred on Japan’s centuries-old onsen tradition, the 2,000-square-metre Aman Spa embraces the theme of water. Designed around a large onsen and its natural mineral-rich waters, the Spa also features two private onsen pavilions, a watsu pool, four treatment suites and a fitness centre.
The Restaurant, with pearl rafts and forests in sight, focuses on Japanese cuisine, while some Western food is also served. Thanks to the varied microclimates of Mie Prefecture, local suppliers provide delicate fruits such as Nabari melons, an array of vegetables, as well as the renowned Matsusaka beef and a variety of fresh seafood.
