Stay at Griya Bukit Anyar, a quiet beachside haven that is just remote enough to make you feel like you are miles from civilisation, when in fact you are only 16km from the cultural town of Ubud, 25km from the hip and happening Seminyak, and 30km from Bali’s international airport. There are international restaurants and shops galore just 15km away in Sanur, and fun days out can be enjoyed at Bali Safari & Marine Park (8km) and Bali Bird Park (11km). The villages of Mas (11km), Sukawati (6km), Batubulan (11km), and Batuan (7km) are famous for their traditional handcrafts and are fascinating to visit.
