Stayed at Canggu Cabana & Spa by Ini Vie Hospitality and overall, it was a lovely boutique experience. The property features around 12–15 rooms in a mix of configurations, offering a quiet retreat just 3 minutes' walk from Nelayan Beach. It's set slightly away from the main tourist buzz, making it peaceful—aside from the loud music from a nearby club that can carry on late into the night.
I stayed in one of their duplex units, which has a unique layout: the bedroom on the upper level, and the shower, bathtub, and toilet on the lower level. While the design is visually interesting, it can be rather inconvenient having to go up and down stairs for basic needs like using the mirror, tissue, or the restroom—especially at night. It would be helpful if the hotel duplicated key items like tissues and a mirror on both levels.
The room itself is cosy, though a bit tight in space and lacking a proper desk, which makes working on the go difficult. Only two power outlets in the entire room, which is insufficient for today’s charging needs.
That said, what the property lacks in practicality, it makes up for in warmth and hospitality. The staffs are incredibly attentive, and they set up a WhatsApp group chat upon check-in for seamless assistance throughout the stay. It honestly felt like coming home at the end of each day.
Breakfast is a la carte, with a nice variety of choices, and pre-ordering the day before is recommended. The pool is small, but perfect for tanning or a relaxing dip.
