Sowen Beach

Great location! Away from the hustle bustle and close enough to great restaurants, sunset venues and beaches. Note there really isn’t a beach out front but plenty of swimmable beaches close by. We stayed in a pool access room - well worth the upgrade as the rooms towards the front of the hotel lack privacy and exposed to late night music. The chilled pool and terraced restaurant are highlights! Staff are incredibly sweet and friendly. Menu is hit and miss. Order the pork belly and sweet potato fries! Bfast every morning is delicious and good people watching. Seriously best coffee! Double shot lattes. Sleeping was comfortable with nightly turn down service and air conditioned rooms. We left doors open and fan on. Roosters and birds are a nice way to wake up around 5am. They also serve afternoon tea with selection of tea, coffee and light bites complimentary to pool villas.

Our stay at Meno Escape was incredible. I spent 2 nights there with my boyfriend, looking for a much needed break from the busyness of Bali. Well, we definitely went to the right place! The island is extremely quiet and a true paradise, with its white beach, crystal clear water and no cars at all! The property is dreamy, we rented a bungalow with private pool and the 3 days we spent there were definitely not enough, as we would have gladly stayed for longer. Everything is spotless clean, and extremely well kept. The true highlight of our stay? The staff. By the time we arrived at Meno Escape, we had already met a lot of Indonesian people and had already realized how lovely they all are, but the guys at Meno Escape were even lovelier (if possible!!). Welcoming, warm, always ready to crack a joke, and at the same time super professional and very well organized. Too bad we live on the other side of the world, otherwise we’d go there on a regular basis! Totally recommend this place, if you’re looking for somewhere to unwind and enjoy nature.
