Accommodations
The eleven palapa-style private bungalows are the perfect antidote to the chaos of everyday life. Each is designed and built by hand using traditional materials. Following the subtle influence of Zen, while also honoring the exotic qualities of intercontinental design, the guest rooms are tastefully furnished in Mexican tradition with a queen bed, organic cotton bedding topped with colorful duvets and handwoven pillows, all tied together under a romantic canopy of cream-hued linen. The rain disk shower heads gently cleanse, while local ocean stone flooring massages your feet. Every unit boasts an inspiring view of the sea, a private deck and calming meditation garden used for personal reflection. The thatched palapa and antique tile roofs lend an authentically indigenous quality, reflecting the ancient style of Balinese and Mexican old-world construction. All rooms have easy access to the pool, beach, and dining.
