A Local Reflection of Candidasa: Bali’s Hidden Paradise

As someone who grew up in the heart of Candidasa, I’ve always known this area to be more than just a place to live — it’s a destination that effortlessly captures the true essence of Bali. When I was a child, I remember playing by the ocean, breathing in the fresh sea breeze, and feeling surrounded by the peace and beauty that Bali is known for. Over the years, Candidasa has grown, but the charm of the place has remained untouched.

Candidasa is the quiet side of Bali, offering a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of the more popular tourist spots. It’s a village steeped in culture, where traditions are still honored and shared. From the local temples to the beautiful beaches, there is always something that feels authentic and untouched.

As part of the team at Ramayana Candidasa Beach Resort, I’m fortunate enough to share this beauty with the world. The resort’s location is perfect — nestled right along the coastline, offering panoramic ocean views, with lush tropical gardens surrounding it. Guests can wake up to the sound of waves and enjoy their morning coffee while soaking in the natural beauty of the area. I’ve always thought of our resort as a peaceful sanctuary that perfectly complements the serenity of Candidasa.

 

 

Just a short distance from the resort, guests can explore iconic spots like the tranquil Blue Lagoon Beach, known for its crystal-clear waters, perfect for snorkeling and diving. The famous Ujung Water Palace, with its rich history and stunning architecture, is another must-visit, offering an insight into Bali’s royal past.

For those interested in cultural experiences, the island’s numerous temples, including the awe-inspiring Pura Goa Lawah (Bat Cave Temple), provide a glimpse into Bali’s spiritual heritage. Many of these sacred sites are still actively used by locals for daily offerings and ceremonies, offering an authentic connection to Balinese culture.

Candidasa is also a gateway to explore some of Bali’s best diving spots. Just a short drive away from the resort, Amed and Tulamben offer incredible underwater experiences, with colorful coral reefs and vibrant marine life waiting to be discovered.

At Ramayana Candidasa Beach Resort, we aim to provide our guests with a glimpse into the Bali I know — the Bali that is about slowing down, appreciating the beauty around us, and reconnecting with nature. It’s my hope that every guest who stays here feels the same sense of peace and wonder I’ve felt growing up in this extraordinary place. Whether you’re here for a romantic getaway, an adventure-filled holiday, or simply to unwind, there is something special about Candidasa and the surrounding area that will leave a lasting impression.

We invite you to explore this magical part of Bali, where you can enjoy the quiet, beauty, and warmth of the island, while embracing everything this culture-rich region has to offer.
