Canggu is no longer a sleepy surf village. It’s a sprawl of beach clubs, cafés, coworking spaces and villas, and the road between them can crawl at sunset. Where you sleep decides whethver your trip feels effortless or exhausting.

For most travellers, the answer is Batu Bolong.

Why Batu Bolong works

You can walk to the beach. Batu Bolong and Canggu Beach are a short stroll away, so you can leave the scooter parked. 

The essentials are around the corner. Spas, convenience stores, pharmacies and cafés are all within a few minutes walk. It sounds minor until you need sunscreen at 9 pm or a massage after a surf session. 

Beach clubs and sunsets are close. The Lawn Beach Club is a short walk away so you don’t have to stay in traffic just to catch sunset.

It’s central. Need to shop? Go to Love Anchor. Need a munch? Warung Sika gives the perfect local experience. Need a coffee? BGS is known for their almond milk and coffee. 

Perfect for adventurers. Echo Beach is a short ride or walk, Tanah Lot Temple is about 12 km away, and Seminyak is roughly 4 km. 

A quiet retreat in a busy area

Gang Bonton, the lane where La Rose Villas & Boutique Camp sits, is close to everything but set back from the main road. No need to wake up early just to take a picture at Gigi Susu with its distance a short walk away. Guests describe it as a hidden gem tucked into the buzz of Canggu. 

You can choose between:

  • Two private-pool villas, Villa Aku and Villa Kamu, each with three bedrooms, suitable for families and groups that want to explore Bali for the first time.
  • Ten boutique camp suites, with premium bedding, a desk and laptop workspace, air conditioning and a smart TV, for couples and solo travellers.

Every stay includes free WiFi, a 24-hour front desk and a complimentary croissant-and-juice snack box each morning.
