Reasons To
Visit Indonesia

  • Volcanos

    Heading up Krakatau is like trekking over Mars and as the guides tell you once you get half way: "No further or our boots melt". The basic nature of camping out on the island is outshone by the fact you will probably be the only people staying overnight and will be sleeping just metres from the ocean in the shadow of a volcano. A beautiful coral reef around one side of the island offers excellent snorkelling and the views over to the peak of the smoking Anak Krakatau are superb.

  • Beaches

    The most obvious choice for a beach destination in Indonesia would be the island of Bali. Places like Seminyak, Sanur and Jimbiran are idyllic retreats.

  • History & culture

    Indonesia is scattered with many temples and ancient monuments. Perhaps the most famous is the vast pyramidal structure of Borobudur, considered to be one of Southeast Asia’s greatest religious relics. Hundreds of Buddha images stare impassively out over the plains and the detailed galleries and terraces that lead up to its central stupa tell tales of ancient gods and battles.

  • Weather

    There is never really a 'bad' time to go to Indonesia and the weather is good during the British summer months unlike many other Southeast Asian destinations. Even during the wet season, the rain won't dampen the enjoyment of your holiday as it falls in short downpours and it means that the scenery around you will be lush and colourful.

  • Wildlife

    Indonesia is home to some incredible wildlife and the national parks in Kalimantan and Sumatra are some of the best places to see it. Trek through jungles, rivers and waterfalls on foot or by elephant to discover the wonders of nature from the orang-utan to the world's largest flower.

Alam Shanti

Ubud

Alam Shanti is located just outside Ubud along the tranquil rice fields of Nyuh Kuning village.

Three traditional Balinese homes provide for six spacious accommodations with wonderful rice field or garden views. The surrounding area is extremely rural which makes for a peaceful experience where only the wind chimes and bird life break the silence of Balinese countryside.

The swimming pool is located towards the rear of the property and also has stunning rice field views. This family run hideaway provides breakfast in your room and locally run Cafe Wayan can offer authentic Indonesian cuisine for lunch and dinner.

Alam Shanti also promotes the plethora of high quality dining options in central Ubud and offers courtesy transport for its guests.

Along with the sister Alam properties, these are some of our favourites in Bali, but with just ten rooms in each, they book out a long way in advance and first choice of room types are not always possible.
