East Java
This lovely resort-style hotel is a peaceful place to stay. Its huge, well-kept rooms and traditional-style cottages are dotted around a sprawling tropical garden, shaded with coconut palms and extending to the sea. The 18m pool is big enough for laps, and has a small bar for pool-side cocktails. It’s 2km south of the ferry terminal.
With various family rooms available and a playground, it's a natural choice for travelling families.
