An immersive and authentic
experience
Away from the busy tourist regions, Wyndham
Jivva Bali invites guests to explore the area
of Klungkung where roads once led to sacred
temples, ancient villages and the royal palaces.
Now guests can immerse themselves in
authentic Balinese experiences with cycling trips
through rice plantations providing an insight
into the local way of living, or Batik workshops
showcasing the traditional technique for dying
textiles. The resort is also in close proximity to
the Klungkung palace and art markets for guests
to gain a deeper cultural understanding of the
region.
For those seeking a historical experience,
Kerta Gosa palace and Pura Goa Lawah temple
are a short distance from Wyndham Jivva Bali.
Relics of the Klungkung kingdom, considered
to be the highest and most important of the nine
kingdoms of Bali from the late 17th century to
1908, these monuments give an insight into the
island’s rich past.
An ideal destination for beach-goers and
experienced surfers, Wyndham Jivva Bali
stretches out onto a dramatic black volcanic
sand beach for lounging all day in the sun and is
a ten-minute drive to the world-class Keramas
surf break. Known for its powerful right-handers
and barrels, Keramas attracts surfers from
around the globe and even offers floodlit night
surfing. Not for the fainthearted, the break is
also home to a beach club where spectators can
relax with a Bintang and watch the action.
Other attractions within easy reach of the
resort include Bali Safari and Marine Park,
Taman Nusa Cultural Park and Nyoman Gunarsa
Museum of Classical & Modern Art, while day
trips can be arranged to Tegenungan Waterfall
in Kemenuh village, Amed and Tulamben dive
spots, Ubud, Seminyak, Nusa Penida, Nusa
Lembongan and Mount Batukaru.
