“Secluded and peaceful amidst the heavy construction work.”
Personal and secluded. It’s a perfect spot between big resorts and it felt like returning home when being out and about. Gardens are very attractive and maintained. The restaurant has excellent position and there are chairs and tables on the boardwalk which we used every day. Better off than the majority of larger resorts during the redevelopment because the pool is set back and within a closed-in garden area, but you can still see out to the ocean. The photos are accurate. We ate at the family-run Warung Budi Ayu. The duck betutu and hospitality are worth a stop in Candidasa.
The massive redevelopment project means heavy equipment all along the shoreline. It will be fabulous for the area in a couple years' time, but for now if you just want to lay on the beach in front of your accommodation.. go to another area with your hard-earned holiday time and money. Tiny bit of sand at very low tide and a no swimming sign?? The property looks lovely but is in need of some brightening up on the timber work.
