The Alam Anda has been an insider tip for many years and today it has almost a cult status with regularly returning guests. Occupying 420m of shoreline and far from Bali's mainstream tourism areas, it was originally built by German architect, Uwe Siegfriedsen, in pursuit of a personal dream to share with his Balinese family.

Uwe has recently retired from managing the place but still live next door and keeps a keen eye on it.

The resort's cottages are all built from natural materials, including palm wood, mahogany and bamboo, and thatched with the traditional Alang Alang grass -- even the varnish is natural -- and are scattered around a generous 2 hectare palm garden, with hundreds of shady coconut and Lontar palm trees, Kambodjas, Eucalyptus and banana trees. On the almost empty, pebble beach you might occasionally meet a fisherman or children playing -- but no sign of tourists other that your co-guests. Here it is still possible to enjoy the real Bali with its local hospitality and culture.

Accommodation

Seaview Bungalow

10 bungalows built on stilts, all with sea view. Generously spaced out, without any frills, therefore purely natural. The combined living room/bedroom is furnished with bamboo and the bathroom in marble. With local shower, warm and cold but ... have you ever heard of the "Mandi". Extra shower freshness, Asian style, is obtained by scooping water from a basin. The conventional shape of the room, copied from Sumatra's old building experts, makes use of the sea breeze as air conditioning and there is a 2m x 2m secluded cushioned "bale" day bed on the veranda too.
