On the south eastern coast of Bali, Sanur has a 1km long white sand beach protected by a coral reef.  The surf is gentler here than other areas of the island which makes it the ideal place to relax, enjoy the sun and go snorkeling.  It is also an excellent place to watch the sunrise.

Sanur is a very mellow town that embraces tourists yet retains the pace of old village life.  The first resort developed in Bali, Sanur maintains Bali’s largest traditional village and only a stones thrown away from the beach, ancient temples stand as solemn as they have centuries past.

It is a place of remarkable contrasts: a golden mile of gorgeous hotels that attract paradise seekers every year, yet, nestled within the grounds of the 11-storey Inna Grand Bali Beach Hotel (a war reparation gift from the Japanese) sits the sacred and special temple of Ratu Ayu of Singgi.
