The Bali Cottage is even more beautiful than it appears in the pictures. A true work of art with dappled light coming through the antique tike panels. At first I though it was a bit dark, but I quickly came to appreciate it very much. I generally endorse the other glowing reviews. The only thing I would disagree with is I didn’t think the bugs were bad at all. It’s the tropics! Yes, there were bugs around, but none bothered us. I don’t think I got a bite all week, and some were quite pretty. We wholeheartedly recommend the place, especially for honeymooners.

There is no sandy beach here, its all cliffs and rocky shorelines with just a tiny sliver of a river rock beach at the south end. A bunch of people were hanging out at the Monument, and I believe they hiked down from the cliffs. We docked between the Captain Cook Monument and the high cliffs of the bay. The waters were super clear and calm; so clear that I could see the reef just below my feet.
