Welcome
to Santai Bali Hotel - Bali luxury resort in Amed, Karangasem - Bali.
Santai Hotel Bali ( formerly known as Gubuk Kita ) is located on the East coast of Bali, in verdant tropical gardens and with Mount Agung rising in the background. It is a 60 minutes drive North of Candi Dasa and 3 hours from Denpasar International Airport.
The word 'Santai' means relax and that is just what you can do here. The drive to Santai Hotel Bali is picturesque and takes you along the coastline, through local villages, alongside rice fields and close to many places of interest. The Amed coastal area itself is off the beaten track and is a delight to explore either on foot, by motorcycle or car.
Santai Bali Hotel have six individual Indonesian style bungalows, three Ocean View and three Garden view.
We describe Santai Hotel as a boutique hotel that caters for the traveller who wants to get away from it all and stay in 'local' high quality accommodation with the comforts of home.
The detached bungalows are built in the Sulawesi style with thatched roofs and local timbers. We have where possible used local natural materials to create a Balinese ambience.
The bungalows, fishponds, restaurant, and 16-metre architect designed swimming pool are surrounded by lush green gardens, full of the fragrances of frangipani and flowers of the East.
For those quiet times you can relax in the gardens under the shade of the pagoda and read a book from our library or just watch the ocean gently lapping the shore.
THE BUNGALOWS at Santai Bali - Amed
Simplicity is the key to the understated elegance of the rooms. Each room is individually furnished and decorated using hand made products from local villages.
The three Ocean View bungalows are slightly larger than the Garden view bungalows. Otherwise all have the same floor plan and facilities including mini bars.
Each bungalow has a large front deck with comfortable lounge sofas and chairs, just right for having breakfast on or taking an afternoon snooze.
There is sleeping accommodation for four people, with either a large double or queen size four poster bed on the ground floor and a double or twin beds in the open plan mezzanine loft style room upstairs.
The 'open air' style bathrooms have hot water showers, with w.c. and vanity units set in an indoor garden.
All the bungalows have individually controlled air-conditioning.
