Bali,
the star jewel of the fabled Spice Islands, is a masterpiece of
nature. Age old community rice farming blends carefully manicured
terraced rice fields with the lush Tropical forest. Towering volcanic
peaks afford spectacular views of the deep ravines. Puri Bagus Manggis
is located directly in the center of the traditional village of
Manggis, the easternmost district of Karangasem, allowing first
hand insights of this island paradise. Holding sites of diverse
touristic interest, such as the historic remains of the Royal Water
Palace at Tirtagangga, and the village of Tenganan, a walled-in
borne to the original Balinese, the Bali Aga community just a few
minutes drive from the botel. Natural landscapes of Sidemen and
Iseh are a source of artistic inspiration. Trekking through the
terraced rice paddies in the very region of of Manggis and L nearby
world renowned diving site at Tulamben where the USS Liberty sunk
during WWII are experience not to be missed
Puri
Bagus Manggis is a haven of tranquility amidst true Balinese village
life. Built in traditional architectural style, this original family
compound has been transformed into 7 exquisite guestrooms. The thatched
roof of the dining room blends with the natural scenery allowing
views of the rural life and the ever present colourful religious
ceremonies.
The swimming pool, set amongst the rice paddies and orchid garden
along with the unobtrusive hospitality of the Balinese staff completes
this ultimate experience.
