Amanwana opened in 1993 on Moyo Island, off the coast of Sumbawa in the Indonesian archipelago. The property runs 17 luxury tents on a private beach, each with direct beach access. The tent format — canvas walls, teak floors, open-air bathrooms — was unusual for luxury hospitality in the early 1990s
