Waka Gangga

The natural rejuvenating energies of the Indian Ocean surf, the gently sloping rice terraces and the invigorating sea air make this a sanctum for a complete 'get away from it all' destination — restful quiet, excellent food and total comfort.

The ten bungalows perch on gently sloping rice terraces which fringe a sparkling black sand beach on the edge of the Indian Ocean. Local stables provide horses for a mystic ride (US$29pp per hr) on the seemingly endless beach and the famous Tanah Lot temple is only 15 minutes away. The style in the same as the other Waka Resorts. You are surrounded by the textures and colors of nature; dressed slate; tiles; smooth unpainted wood; soft homespun fabrics; intricately worked copper; fragrant alang-alang grass roofing; natural bamboo; rough cut stone; flowers and foliage.

As with all Wakas there are no TVs, no music, and no phones. The resort also boasts a small spa and swimming pool while the sea on this wild coast is not for swimming.
