And don't forget the delicious meals, they don't only taste very good, but are presented in a very beautiful way too. We loved the entourage of the... More

the front gate didn't look like different than other modern boutique hotels, but when you enter for checking in, you will find a nice small pond with flat wood bridge to go inside the lounge. The lounge is serene in the morning and I felt like home when I came back to there in the afternoon. My friend used the... More

Beautiful, Indonesian style rooms and garden. Extremely kind and helpful staff. I recommend trips organised by the hotel as well. Very good breakfast and other meals. On request breakfast possible even very early (for ex 4.30a.m.)! Very comfortable, safe, romantic. Strongly recommended!
