Cilik's Beach Garden

North Bali


Coming here is like visiting your rich friends, albeit ones with good taste. These custom-built villas, 3km east of Yeh Sanih, are large and have extensive private gardens. Other accommodation is in stylish lumbung (rice barns with round roofs) set in a garden facing the ocean. The owners have even more remote villas further south on the coast. Good cafe.
