Don't Miss These Hidden Gems in Canggu

As those cooler temps start to sneak in, our minds begin to drift straight to the sunnier shores of our favourite tropical paradise – and the idea of spending those endless arvos lounging poolside. And, where better to head than Bali’s most iconic neighbourhood – Canggu? 

From surf-ready waves and lush rice paddy fields to cool health-conscious cafes and plenty of hot new bars, this once-sleepy town has something to offer everyone. So, it’s no surprise that this buzzing destination has officially secured itself on every island itinerary.

But if you’ve only got a few days to spare, and you're not sure where to begin, it helps to have some insider knowledge. So, to help you get on your way to paradise, we asked the experts at Ini Vie Hospitality to give us the lowdown on how to spend a magical weekend in Canggu… 

STAY

Canggu Cabana: Luxury Cabana Living in Bali

Located in the heart of buzzing Canggu, the dreamy Canggu Cabana is the place to stay for good vibes and five-star service. Set against a backdrop of epic ocean views, you’ll spend your days exploring some of Bali's trendiest spots, blissing out with authentic massages and enjoying some me-time in the privacy of your luxurious suite – each featuring large deep soak tubs and some seriously stunning interiors. Designed exclusively for couples, get involved in a unique rooftop yoga session, take a plunge in their infinity pool and eat your way through a mouthwatering menu at the popular Seabird Restaurant. And, when you’re ready to get out and explore, you’ll find Canggu’s hottest bars, beach clubs and shops just minutes from the hotel.

EXPERIENCE

Svaha Spa: Revitalise Your Senses

No trip to Bali is complete without a relaxing spa treatment, and while we love a cheap walk-in massage, sometimes it’s nice to really spoil yourself.

They have facials, healing packages and massages, plus extras like romantic open-air bath rituals and traditional Balinese body scrubs.  With a focus on relaxing both your body and mind, the experienced staff will take care of you from the moment you arrive, ready to lend a helping hand in ensuring each treatment is truly blissful. 

Plus, you’ll save up to 40% when you book with us and score $60 spa credit for just $40, or $100 credit for just $60.

EAT

Shichirin Canggu: Japanese Gastronomy at Its Finest

Get amongst the burning embers and smoke at Shichirin – an immersive Japanese Izakaya in the heart of Canggu. Merging authentic Japanese cooking techniques with iconic Balinese flavours – here, you’ll get to watch your food grilled before your eyes in an intimate setting. The experienced chefs at this brightly lit restaurant come armed with open-flame hibachi grills – which are put to use to create dishes such as enoki maki drizzled with teriyaki and yakiniku. The rest of the show is equally dazzling: think authentic Teppanyaki and Gyukatsu – paired with expertly crafted cocktails and sakes. We’d recommend trying a Shochu Highball or a Sake Rika – you can thank us later. 

And, if you book here, you’ll score a huge 35% off your bill and enjoy $60 credit for just $35, or $100 credit for just $60.
