Tugu Bali, Canggu

Tugu Bali is a very unique place. Part art gallery, part antique collection and all comfort; it is located amidst lush gardens in Canggu.

Tugu is like no other resort we’ve ever seen. Everything about it is unique, including the communal areas and each individual room. The rooms were designed from scratch by the owner, and each contains a collection of art and antiques. Some rooms pay tribute to artisans associated with Indonesia over the years. As each room is quite distinct, we recommend discussing the options with your travel consultant prior to booking.  

Indonesian heritage is not only a design theme but is fundamental to the whole ethos of the resort. During your stay, you can learn to cook Indonesian style, practice yoga, or enjoy a spa treatment based on Indonesian traditions. Dining here is an experience in itself, and the menu has been expertly crafted to demonstrate the complexity of Indonesian spices.

It is quite difficult to categorise the standard of Tugu in the usual sense, though it is certainly intended to be a high-end resort and has the comforts and service you would expect at that level (including a swimming pool). In the same way that a home full of antiques is not to everyone’s taste, Tugu Bali will not appeal to all. For those who prefer sleek modern design and clean lines, the resort might feel a little cluttered, and we suggest looking elsewhere. However, if you like art and antiques and enjoy quirkiness, then Tugu Bali is about as unique as you’re likely to find anywhere in the world!
