a hidden gem filled with surprises

We never expect to find such a refine place at the very southern tip of Belitung island. A very creative and delicate cuisine, sustainable practices to save energy or natural fogging, an attentive service, large villa with private pool, 800m of white sand beach and beautiful landscape. Only recommend to people who appreciate quiet beauty!!!

World class diving…the staff was friendly, accommodating, and excited to share any knowledge about marine life or surrounding area. The food was fresh and plentiful while offering a nice variety. Beautiful resort with paddle boards, kayaks, snorkeling, scuba diving, and spa services. Having air condition over the beds at night was comforting and being able […]

Impressive modern Malaysian cuisine

I had a dinner here on the christmas night. Impressive 10 course meal with additional snacks and dessert. It’s a marathon dinner of almost 3 hours with variety of food items to try. Each dish is unique and burst of flavours. The chef uses local herbs and spices creatively in each meal. You will think […]

Flawless and one of a kind.

“Tugu is absolutely soaked in colonial era charm. It comes through in the way they support you throughout the visit. It’s in the architecture and extensive art collection. It’s all through the menu in the restaurant. It’s in the amazing choices of furniture and design. We were given the exact suite we asked for. The […]

Very unique and relaxing

“My family and I stayed at the castle for three nights and spent Christmas there this year. It was wonderful, and a great place to slow down in between more hectic Indian stops. We entirely enjoyed the brief camel wagon ride to a small and under-visited Indian village. A great stop in between crazy and […]

Great place to stay, almost perfect

“Great environment, nice bungalow, beautiful setting, amazing view on the sea and fabulous sunset. The staff is very nice and helpful from the waiters to the manager. Few bungalows so you really feel being in a protected place with not many people and a beautiful nature. The only critics would be about the restaurant (not […]

Excellent service in picturesque ambience, what more could you ask for?

“Stayed in the Devata Room for 3 nights and we had one of the best family vacation ever. Room was spacious, decor was magnificent with all the antiquities around. Plenty of photo spots. The whole hotel always smelled faintly of jasmine and tuberose flower. There was nothing too troublesome for the staff to make you […]

Worth the journey

There is no way round it, this beautiful hotel is remote, it took us 5 hours to get there and the same to leave. However, the location is beautiful. The hotel is so well run, every detail is perfect. We loved the food as well.

Fantastic relaxing place

We stayed for 10 days and had a peaceful experience. Staff are very friendly and helpful rooms are beautiful and spacious. Loved taking the kayak into the bay. We stayed with two teenage daughters who loved it too- highly recommend this if you are looking for somewhere quiet as not much near to do, but […]

A truly magical place

“Ubud and its surroundings are full of Swanky five star hotels and retreats but if you want to experience something truly magical head to Sandat, you won’t regret it! Set amid the rice fields this quixotic resort that defies definitions is truly stunning: you’ll be able to choose among some luxury tents (more on this […]
