Canggu is Bali in microcosm. A charming village blessed with a rural landscape of verdant rice terraces that extends to a stretch of coastline with a legendary surf break.
Canggu is a tranquil area where travellers can escape the pressures of modern living, but still be close enough to enjoy shopping and dining out in the neighbouring Seminyak shopping district.
Canggu Beach has ample facilities for visitors
The Bali travel Guide at Wikitravel introduces “Bali, the famed Island of the Gods, with its varied landscape of hills and mountains, rugged coastlines and sandy beaches, lush rice terraces and barren volcanic hillsides all providing a picturesque backdrop to its colourful, deeply spiritual and unique culture, stakes a serious claim to be paradise on earth.”
Wikitravel goes on to say “with world-class surfing and diving, a large number of cultural, historical and archaeological attractions, and an enormous range of accommodations, this is one of the world’s most popular island destinations and one which consistently wins travel awards. Bali has something to offer a very broad market of visitors from young back-packers right through to the super-rich.”
Bali comprises 6 diverse regions North Bali, East Bali, West Bali, the Southeastern Islands, Central Bali and South Bali where Canggu is located.
South Bali includes Kuta, the Bukit Peninsula, Denpasar, Jimbaran, Legian, Nusa Dua, Sanur, Seminyak, Tanah Lot and of course Canggu. It is by far the most popular part of the island for visitors.
Canggu is located just north west of Seminyak in a semi-rural area that still features local farming communities and the famous Bali rice paddies.
Canggu offers a combination of local history, tradition and charm with a fantastic beach and facilities for visitors such as the Canggu Club. Seasoned travellers from all over the world are now discovering the privilege of staying in a luxury Canggu when visiting the island of Bali.
There is simply no longer the need to put up with a confined hotel room and all the trappings of mass tourism when a villa alternative offers space, privacy, home comforts and a personalized level of gracious Balinese hospitality and service.
