NusaBay Menjangan by WHM

Formerly Shorea Beach Resort, NusaBay Menjangan is now managed by WHM, a uniquely Balinese management group that combines contemporary, rustic style with warm and friendly Balinese hospitality. Nestled on the shores of Tanjung Kotal Bay, NusaBay Menjangan brings the natural beauty of West Bali National Park to a small number of guests at a time, with only 14 Lanai Cottages and 2 private villas. One of the most significant natural treasures on the island of Bali, Menjangan, just 10 minutes boat ride away, offers world famous diving, unspoiled white sand beaches, crystal clear water and nature at its most pristine. West Bali National Park is a protected national heritage area. NusaBay Menjangan is the only resort located within the astoundingly beautiful national park’s Prapat Agung peninsula, sharing Menjangan island’s blue ocean and its rich marine life. It is the ultimate getaway for nature lovers, divers and those seeking a serene getaway.

Contemporary yet beautifully crafted accommodation that combines the elegant traditions of Balinese architecture, the Lanai Cottages and Villas at NusaBayMenjangan have undergone a total transformation. Eco-friendly materials are introduced into this pristine environment to work with the elements of nature that surround the resort. The resort offers 14 Lanai Cottages and two stylish beach front villas, all nestled within the trees for privacy and comfort. Infused with natural colours and materials native to the island, they feature natural stone, wood, home-spun natural fabrics, bamboo, terracotta tiles as well as copper work from local artisans. The result is a play on light and the sense of being surrounded by nature.

More than simply a restaurant the Waka Beach Club Bar and Restaurant is a sanctuary surrounded by nature offering fresh food and refreshments throughout the day. Overlooking the pool and the crystal clear sea beyond, the Bar and Restaurant are housed within a renovated ‘Joglo’ where beautifully presented dishes sparkle with freshness and highlight a local approach to dining. Fresh seafood is the focus for dinner while during the day an international menu is offered as well as a selection of signature mocktails and cocktails, fresh juices and local favourites.

A 20-minute boat ride from Labran Lalang Jehy brings you to the private enclave that is NusaBay Menjangan, accessible only by boat. The resort is located on a private bay, sharing Menjangan island’s crystal clear waters and world famous coral gardens. Activities at the resort all center on the nature that surrounds from relaxing on perfect beaches where the only footsteps are your own, to snorkeling off the reef, hiking through the national park or simply enjoying the peace and privacy. Menjangan island and its surrounds are home to seven world class dive sites, named among the best in the world. The clear, calm waters create idyllic conditions for the protected coral to thrive. For both divers and snorkelers, the conditions are ideal to discover both shallow reefs and deep vertical gardens.
