Sanak Retreat, Bali, Indonesia, Asia
Sanak Retreat, Bali
Sanak is a luxurious retreat nestled right on top of farmed rice paddies, just 10 minutes from Munduk in the mountainous north of Bali, just 10 minutes from Munduk. The Western Mountains sit to your left and clove plantations to your right, with a wide sweeping valley spread out in front with endless rice paddies – to say the view is sensational is an understatement. This is a true eco retreat, built in harmony with its surrounds, supporting the local community, giving work to the people in the local village.
Highlights
Sleep
Accommodation consists of 10 charming wooden bungalows, some with two bedrooms and one Three Bedroom Private Villa all lovingly finished with luxury in mind from thick fluffy white towels and natural handmade bathroom amenities. Think smooth timber lines, natural fabrics and views to die for with all the creature comforts of home.
The One Bedroom Rice Paddy Bungalows sit in verdant rice fields with uninterrupted views of Java. Surrounded by tropical foliage, these cosy teak and batik bungalows are designed with modern finishes & handpicked decor. Super King Bed with luxe linen, bathroom made of wood and stone, opening to a lush tropical garden. Enjoy breakfast on your private terrace. Set back from the main retreat, the Three Bedroom enclave provides multiple living spaces. Spread over 2 floors, is a private pool, sun deck, terraces, indoor/outdoor living, dining area and private Meditation bale.
