Location
Villa Voyage commands prime position on a small, sandy cove in the south-west corner of Nusa Lembongan. Other than Nusa Dua on mainland Bali, from where a string of lights sparkle across the sea at night, the nearest landfall from here is Australia! Voyage is part of a small, exclusive community comprising a handful of private villas along the beach and a few raised up on the cliff. Next door is the Sandy Bay Beach Club, with its charming, quiet, beachfront restaurant. Across the bay is the spectacular rock formation of Devil’s Tear, scene of crashing waves and plumes of white-tipped foam. A pleasant ten-minute stroll along the clifftop path – populated by pandan plants and the occasional cow – is Dream Beach, great for swimming. A fifteen-minute walk in the other direction leads you to the restaurants and bars of Mushroom Beach.
Nusa Lembongan is a purer, less crowded version of Bali. The same iconic surf, and endless strips of sand lend themselves well to undisturbed holidays spent appreciating the beauty of nature, minus the cacophony. The team of staff will be happy to share a wealth of information about nearby places of interest and will help arrange transport and make any bookings required. Do chat with the staff about the local area, to gain interesting insights into some of the fascinating aspects of life on Nusa Lembongan and neighbouring island Nusa Penida.Nusa LembonganStroll along the beach and across the rocks to Devil’s Tear, a craggy limestone outcrop on the southern tip of Sandy Bay; on a clear day you can see Bali’s sacred volcano Gunung Agung looming in the distance to the north.Cruise the coastline by boat with an experienced captain. Visit deserted beaches such as Gamat Bay on the neighboring island Nusa Penida, enjoy a spot of snorkeling (fins and masks provided) or ask the staff to organise a spot of scuba diving with one of the recommended dive companies on the island. The surrounding waters are spectacular and you can snorkel or dive with the Manta Rays and at certain times of the year, the incredible Mola Molas (sunfish) can also be spotted. Head for Dream Beach, a 10-minute walk southwards along the cliff path, for a swim in a cove of shallow sloping sand set on the clifftop above the beach. Visit the deserted beaches and blue lagoons of Nusa Lembongan’s tiny neighbour, Nusa Ceningan, and experience island life unchanged over the centuries.Adrenaline junkies visit Mahana Point on Nusa Ceningan and hurl yourself off the clifftop into the sea. Or order a cold Bintang beer from the café and watch the surfers cresting huge rollers below.Take a leisurely scooter or golf buggy tour of the island visiting temples, mangroves, beaches and the villages of Lembongan and Jungut Batu. Stroll into Mushroom Bay one evening for a romantic beachfront dinner at Bali Hai. Or pop next door to the Sandy Bay Beach Club for an evening cocktail and barbecue of fresh fish and meats. If you want to venture further afield, many restaurants offer complimentary pick-up and drop-off service. Visit the Underground House in Lembongan Village, a labyrinth of caves excavated from the limestone rock by local farmer and priest Made Biasa using only a hammer, chisel, and 15 years patience and hard work.Climb the steps to Pura Puncak Sari, a sacred hilltop temple which commands fabulous views over the neighboring islands and Bali’s east coast.Nusa Penida – Perfect for a day trip from Nusa LembonganDon't miss the spectacular natural rock arch over the turquoise waters of Broken Beach (Pasih Uug). Hike or bike to get to this amazing cove on Nusa Penida’s north-west tip – and don't forget your camera. Although you can't actually swim here as there’s no access to the water, you’ll be able to cool off at nearby Angel’s Billabong. Angel’s Billabong (Kolam Para Bidadari) is a natural infinity pool of crystal-clear river water flowing into the sea, framed by craggy rocks and cliffs overlooking the ocean. Take a dip with the angels and enjoy the stunning scenery.Watch out as waves hit the rocks and send great plumes of water into the sky at Smoky Beach (Pasih Andus). Just the place for a refreshing shower.Take your mask and snorkel to Crystal Bay (Surganya Pecinta) where the water is clear, the waves are calm and beautiful clusters of coral are waiting to be discovered. It’s a long steep climb down to the white sands of Kelingking Beach but even if you just visit to take photos of the unique T-Rex-shaped cliff formation from the top, your trip will be worth it.Nusa Penida is a wonderful destination for divers. Ask the Elite Concierge to book a few dives with our recommended dive centre for you to get a chance to get up, close and personal with magnificent manta rays at the eponymously named Manta Point or, from late July to November, Mola-Mola, huge oceanic sunfish. For the less experienced diver, there are easier flat reefs and wall dives in the sparkling waters around Nusa Lembongan.
