“Penida Paradise”
I was blown away by how gorgeous, tranquil, and welcoming this place feels; the boutique hotel on Penida Island’s north coast offers oceanfront rooms and suites—suites just have a separate bath and shower plus an impressive high ceiling—right beside a beachside pool that’s almost in the water. The ocean view spans to mainland Bali, and on clear days you can spot Mount Agung; the gardens are lush and tropical, and the rooms combine traditional wood with striking sea‑blue accents, with beds that are truly top‑quality. The tiny restaurant serves exceptional meals made from fresh ingredients, and the breakfast fruit is plentiful and delicious, while the unique “nachos” are a must‑try. Tidal waters give a fantastic snorkeling spot, and a quick swim over the reef drops you into an amazing natural aquarium. What really sets this resort apart is the staff—maintenance, housekeeping, restaurant crew, and reception all went above and beyond during our four nights, and I’m sad to leave such beautiful people. Suksma, Suksma, Suksma, all of you at Sankara Beach Resort Penida, sampai jumpa…we’ll be back. Grant and Trudy 😎🤙🇮🇩🇿🇦
