TAMAN SELINI, new hideaway bungalows in the quiet, unspoiled fishing village of Pemuteran, on the northwest coast of Bali. We are a small group of pioneer developers in Pemuteran who have tried to implement "sensitive tourism" from the outset, by working closely with the village on every level and making sure that local environment and MARINE RESERVE are always looked after. Pemuteran will therefore be protected not only for the benefit of visitors, but also for future generations within the village community.

In the northwest of Bali, the TAMAN SELINI bungalows are located between the mountains and warm sea. The mountains are the colours of mossy green and the sea is luminously blue and safe unlike any seas anywhere, blue blue blue,, reflecting the sky of Pemuteran which is dry-climate with brilliant blue skies. The nights are unbelievable full of stars above in the sky. Taman Selini is few kilometers from the West Bali National Reserve. The untouched forest full of monkeys and deer as well as many birds and other species peculiar to the northwest part of this island.

Traveling from the airport and to the villas is in itself an explorative excursion and easily organized in combination with luxurious hotels near the airport or near the shopping paradise of Kuta and Sanur. The bungalows are three hours drive up north from the general Bali buzz past terraced rice fields and spectacular scenery. Tall tamarind trees line the last part of the trip before you arrive at the hotel.

There are 11 air conditioned bungalows; Bougainvillea, Jacarandas, Frangipani and Japonica overflow, luxuriantly from the gardens of each bungalow with comfortable indoor and outdoor living space around a landscaped courtyard and secluded outdoor shower. The bungalows are furnished with antique day beds, heaps of white cushions, with white flowing curtains of gardenias and frangipani and draping from the outside stone wall the bougainvillea adding brilliant colors.
