Indiana Kenanga

The second time we came to Indiana Kenanga. Great pool, the most fantastic view on the Beach and sunset. The garden is beautiful. The breakfast, lunch and diner is top quality. I hope in the future you can eat the lunch menu also for diner. There is not so much choice of diner when you stag a longer time. For lunch there is plenty of choice, When we come back to Lembongan we are definetely stay in Indiana Kenanga. We really love this place. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Fantastic location, right on the beach, a number of beds reserved just for residents which was a nice touch. The rooms were clean, spacious had a private garden. Breakfast wasn’t included but we ate there once and it was decent. The only negative (which is personal preference) is that the room had a very strong scent. The hotel asked housekeeping not to use the spray again but it was still evident in the room.

We took the Sekar Jaya Fast Boat from Kasumba to Jungut Batu beach. Indiana Kenagan Boutique Hotel is located in central Jungut Batu right on the beach. You will need transport from the ferry taxi (mini trucks are used) which will cost IDR100,000. The hotel reception is about 50m down a narrow path way and then onto the villas. This means no road noise from motor bikes.  The Spa area has a larger pool and then another 70m to the second pool, restaurant and beach.  The villas are air conditioned with high thatched roof and very tastefully done. Super king sized beds, a little firm for me, but still comfortable. Super sized bathroom and shower. We stayed 5 nights but only got hot water on the first day. Not a problem when in the tropics ☺️ We got a trundle bed in the room for our adult sized 12 year old.  It is a laid back atmosphere and music whilst relaxing by the pool or beach.  We arranged to go on a snorkeling tour through the reception. We had a private boat 'Safari' which left from the beach directly out the front of the hotel. IDR800,000 for 3-4 people. Our boat captain was Wayan who was lovely.  It only took about 15 minutes to get out to Mangrove Point. From the moment we jumped in to the crystal clear waters we were in a spectacular wonderland of colourful corals and abundant fish life. It had a current so we could drift along without effort. Then the tide changed and we could drift along in the other direction. We live in Cairns and snorkel on the Great Barrier Reef and have been doing some incredible diving here in Amed, Tulamben, Manta Point and Crystal Bay and were very impressed by this snorkelling experience.  We took a taxi over to Mushroom Bay where we stayed last July cost IDR150,000 each way. You can snorkel straight off the beach, but unfortunately the visibility was not good and there were cold currents so we didn't stay in the water for long. The staff at Indiana Kenanga are very sweet and accommodating.  There are lots of restaurants and warungs around the hotel, but be sure to grab a drink in a beanbag or bed on the beach at sunset. We loved our stay at this property and would definitely recommend it.
