Open in maps →Eighteen loft apartments in a garden compound in Berawa — palms, shared pool, and the beach 2 km down the road. Each loft: king bed on the mezzanine, kitchen and living room below, fast Wi-Fi throughout. Tamora Gallery and Riviera are a three-minute scoot; Finns is 1.8 km. The lofts come in a few sizes — pick by how much floor you like between you and your suitcase.
Soft-industrial apartments in the middle of Berawa — concrete done warm, local art on the walls, king beds in both rooms. Every unit gets a full kitchen and a private pool; Bounce Bali is 450 m away, the beach 2.6 km. Built for a crew of four who plan on doing Canggu properly. Top floor, top of the list.
Ten townhouses out in Cemagi, where the rice fields still outnumber the cafes. Each comes with a private pool, a full kitchen, king beds, and room for four to six depending on which you pick. Canggu is fifteen minutes away when you need it; mostly you won't. This is the green side of the island — mornings here go long.
