Tandjung Sari is precious original. One of Bali's best kept secrets,
Tandjung Sari Hotel was opened in 1962 as four - bungalow
extension to his family by Indonesia Proprietor Wijo Wawo-Runtu.
Tandjung Sari Hotel is located in Sanur, Bali as the forerunner
of boutique hotels in South East Asia. The hotel has 28 bungalows,
evolved from traditional Balinese architecture, constructions and
techniques and material.

Tandjung Sari is more than a hotel. It is gallery of the
fabled Balinese artistic genius, the product of a quarter-century
creative partnership with the same group of craftsmen, across two
generations. Priceless antiques, both Balinese and Dutch colonial,
are also exhibited throughout the property. Like Bali itself, the
hotel is an easy in beauty dedicated to the gods. The management
sees itself as the guardian and patron of the highest possible traditional
standards in the art.
The separate bungalows were built in native style and set in opulent
gardens. Among them were discreetly placed small stone temples with
the traditional pagoda shape and black thatch roof, Statue of gods
and goddess appeared in niches. The room, with its split bamboo
walls, mats, rafts, poles tied together with bark fiber, gave off
vibrations which I can only describe as similar to those one fells
in a forest, as if natural materials never lost their power to conduct
life. It had the quality of refuge which so few hotel room have...."
Every Tandjung Sari bungalows is as individual and special as the
guests themselves. Each Balinese- style unit has its own private
garden, some the sensual freedom of an open-air shower. All provide
top quality modern conveniences from air-conditioning, king-and
queen-size beds, baths and bidets, to telephone with International
Direct Dialing facilities, refrigerators and hair driers. Fine Indonesia
cuisine and the sunny courtesy of Balinese service at the hotel's
beach side restaurant and bar round off the Tandjung Sari experience.
These includes a library and a 50-foot lap pool.
