Batu Karang Resort and Day Spa is located on the small island of Nusa Lembongan, which is situated a mere 20km to the east of Bali. 30 minutes by fast-boat is all it will take to reach this relaxing destination, and it’s a trip well worth taking for traveller’s keen to leave behind the hustle and bustle of the Bali mainland.
The island itself is already well known to avid surfers and diving enthusiasts, though remains largely undiscovered by the majority of tourists who visit the region. Batu Karang Resort and Day Spa is one of only a small number of boutique resorts and is the premier destination for those seeking a 5-star escape.
The resort consists of individual villas that are situated on the northern facing slope of Jungut Batu Bay. Each villa offers truly amazing views of the bay as well as some of the most famous reef breaks in Indonesia including Playgrounds, Lacerations, and Ship Wrecks. The accommodation features open plan bedrooms, private balcony areas with day-beds, and truly unique outdoor bathrooms that offer guests their own personal bathing oasis. Cable television and internet access is also available for those who still want to keep in touch with the outside world.
While being relatively small, there is much to explore on Lembongan Island. A round trip on a scooter or mountain bike can be completed in less than an hour, though will almost certainly take longer due to a number of enticing stops along the way. The Mangrove Forrest, Dream Beach, and Cennigan’s are all amazing settings for travellers to soak in the relaxing island atmosphere. If it’s more excitement that you’re after then packing the surfboard is a must, though a number of small dive schools will help you experience a different aspect of the crystal clear water as well.
Batu Karang allows guests to enjoy their time on the island in a number of ways. Whether it’s relaxing in or around one of the three swimming pools enjoying a cocktail, or indulging in the fine food at the in house restaurant “Muntigs”, the resort offers a true getaway. Lulur, the in-house day spa, also caters to the pampering and rejuvenating requirements of all guests, and even includes a “No-Fuss Facial” for the guys! Be sure to ask about the popular Yoga Retreats that run regularly as well as the Wedding Packages that take advantage of an outdoor wedding pavilion overlooking the ocean to the mystical Mount Agung. There truly is no destination like it.
