Make Puri Bagus Candidasa Hotel your base for Karangasem
Start with Puri Bagus Candidasa Hotel's live prices for your dates, since room rates in Karangasem swing with the season. Then look at activity packages, since the Tulamben wreck dive and the Tirta Gangga water palace are easy to add once your base is set. Finally, price a car: the dive coast, temples and rice valleys are a fair drive apart. The three links below go straight to each.

our review
Puri Bagus Candidasa is a genuine draw for guests seeking a private-beach villa stay away from the crowds of southern Bali, reviewers consistently describe the open-air outdoor bathrooms as a memorable, distinctly Balinese touch that makes the villas feel special. The private beachfront is repeatedly named as the highlight of the whole stay.
The two garden-facing yoga pavilions and included cooking classes get strong reviews for adding real substance to the stay beyond just beach time. Gringsing Restaurant & Bar's sea-view dining is a favourite spot for sunset meals, and reviewers agree the roughly 90 km distance from the airport is worth it for several days of properly remote East Bali.
