A paradise garden with lovely people From the warm welcome you immediately feel at home while enjoying a nice welcome drink. The bungalows with beautiful flower names such as Lilly, Cempaka and our Bougenville are all spacious and have a large bathroom. The voluminous bed wonderful mattress. The bungalows have a spacious veranda from where you can view the beautiful garden in peace. The plants, trees and flowers are of a diversity that you don't often see. It exudes tranquility, partly due to the nature sounds of the birds, the chikchaks, the geckos and many more species. You can also take an invigorating splash in the beautifully designed infinity pool. With Nyoman and Gede we did all kinds of trips that were offered to us for a small fee: hot water tubs, trackings through rice fields, to the various waterfalls. Everything is allowed, nothing is necessary. My wife also participated in the Yoga a number of times, both yin and yang. Nyoman offered us to undergo a ritual in the Hindu faith, a purification ceremony performed by an authorized man and a woman from Sesandan, the village. It was a privilege to experience this and surprisingly felt very liberating. We also relaxed a lot in the garden. Highlights we found the 3 meals that were served to us every day. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Cynthia, Made and Tania keep preparing imaginative deliciously scented dishes. Tastefully prepared vegetables, lalapam, various satays, ajam dishes, tuna prepared in different ways, always accompanied by a delicious soup. And everything homegrown, including the rice, like we've never eaten it before, so tasty. Cynthia makes stimulating and several types of sambals for enthusiasts. I would almost forget the fruit with every meal. It was always a pleasure to go to the table. That was also due to the good humor of our hostesses and gentlemen. We have laughed a lot. They are such nice and lovely people.
