If you are searching for a unique experience full of Indonesia culture, wealth and heritage, then look no further. All you could wish for, and more besides, is found at the exotically charming Hotel Tugu Bali. Situated on the stunning coastline of the seaside village of Canggu, near Kuta which has retained all the natural beauty of the Bali of yesteryear, Tugu is a outstanding example of dedication to detail.
Filled to the brim with antiques and artifacts from accross the archipelago, Tugu has become a masterpiece as well as a a home from home for the discerning traveler who loves something unique.
Each of the 22 suites has been lovingly finished with handpicked items, two of which are dedicated to the late Bali residents, Belgian artist Le Mayeur and artist/photographer Walter Spies, pioneers of their time.
There are several thematic restaurants, once again packed with cultural artifacts detailing Indonesia's past. You may choose to eat wherever and however you choose.
The 'Waroeng Tugu' offers its dinner a 'lifetime experience' of how the Javanese and Balinese ate in their own homes or in a 'waroeng' (a simple traditional hut for lunch and dinner). The simplicity of both the ambience and of the fare (you will be served on simple dining wares and banana leaves as well as be encouraged to eat with your barehands), lends to the authenticity of the menu that has been relived from hundreds of years of history.
Therefore, for those of you on the hunt for the inimitable Indonesian experience, definitely visit Hotel Tugu, and don't forget your camera! |
