Mutiara Beach Resort

#bintantrip We stayed 7 nights through Christmas and had a very restful and relaxed vacation. This place is indeed a gem, we liked that the place blended well into the native locale. Beautiful naturally ventilated traditional huts set amongst unspoilt grounds. Stayed in River House 12. Truly embraced the experience of living in harmony with nature! (Tip: lights attract beetles so switch off the lamps overhead the bed.) We didn't miss air conditioning or hot water heater at all! The verandah faced the breezy sea and we were lulled to sleep at night by the waves lapping up the beach. The sea and beach front is the tiara! The sandy beach and gentle gradient allowed us to swim all day whatever the tide. Also explored the beach and stumbled upon local fishing community nearby. The Warung restaurant is amazing! Menu was extensive for all our meals throughout our stay. Prices are reasonable and commensurate with the on-call service till late night. Ingredients were fresh and dishes cooked on order only. The food reflects the native lifestyle deliciously, we tried almost everything on the menu! Service was impeccable and the staff were ever ready to do their best to make our stay comfortable and memorable, at the same time affording us absolute privacy. Met with Marc who is very welcoming and shared with us about the efforts of the resort collaborating with the locals such as the nearby Kampung Telokdalam who were invited to the resort for a performance by an Indonesian troupe on Christmas day. Marc mentioned that next year 2025 would mark the resort's 20th anniversary! Thanks Marc and staff of Mutiara Beach Resort for a most memorable and enjoyable vacation stay!
