"Loved staying here to get away from the ubud and seminyak traffic and experience the eastern part of bali
It was the perfect base for our diving trips, as amed and tulamben USAT are so close by.
A huge shoutout to Dayu at the front desk, who suggested we join the rice fields activity! Walking through the nearby fields, learning about the subak irrigation system, and trying out actual farming activities was such a wonderful hands on experience.
We ended up spending plenty of time hanging out...

Stayed here for 4 days. New Manager and the vibe around the place is very good. The Sky view rooms are excellent and very spacious. We stayed in the Bungalow which was ideal for 2 with a great ocean view. It is part of the older building and could do with a little renovation, but it was ideal for our stay. Breakfast is massive and we were full all day until our evening meal. 250 metres from Candidasa main strip, so everything is local. Great value for money and definately recommended
