Reached via a suspension bridge over the Mo Chhu River, the Amankora Punakha Lodge incorporates a traditional Bhutanese farmhouse. The eight Suites are identical in design to those of Amankora Paro, with views across an orange orchard and rice terraces. This three-storey structure , features vegetable-dye wall paintings and houses the Dining room, Courtyard and the Tea pavilion on the ground floor and intimate relaxation areas and a traditional altar room for prayer and meditation on the first floor.
There are 8 suites at the Amankora Punakha, located in three buildings set in an orange orchard with views across the rice paddies and up Punakha Valley. Identical in Bhutanese-inspired design to those of Amankora Paro, each suite features a combined lounge and bedroom that is furnished with a king-size bed, banquette window-seat and reading chair. In one corner is the traditional bukhari, a wood-burning stove.
The living room and dining area are located in a traditional Bhutanese farmhouse which once belonged to the queen mother. There is also a delightful sun terrace for dining out or just relaxing in the pristine surroundings. Yoga, massage and a steam room are all provided to make your stay as relaxed as possible. A private dinner in the queen mother’s farmhouse is a must.
