1. A Warm Welcome, Candi Bentar
Start your photo journey with the iconic Candi Bentar, a traditional Javanese and Balinese symmetrical split gate that exudes a sense of cultural charm, surrounded by a lush greenery garden that welcomes you as soon as you arrive. You can capture photos with different poses from a distance or videos by walking away from the Candi Bentar, filmed moving backwards to capture the warm welcome’s beauty and feeling.
2. The Soothing Koi Pond
Move from the Candi Bentar to the Lobby area. Find the soothing Koi Pond with the vibrant hues of the Koi fish swimming gracefully, and add serenity to your photographs. Step onto the deck, and you can capture from these three favourite angles: besides the couch in the Lobby, precisely from the centre of the hallway leading to the lobby courtyard, and on the opposite side from the hallway towards the building. You can feed the fish too, and get closer to them when it’s feeding time!
3. Balinese Authentic Bale Kulkul
The next one is located just behind the Koi Pond stands Bale Kulkul, a building that may pique your curiosity as you enter our Lobby during your visit. It boasts a traditional Balinese design with an iconic golden carved door. You can sit on the stairs, descend them, move away from Bale Kulkul, and capture photos from either the front or side angle.
4. Stairs amidst a garden

You can explore and create stunning photos from various angles: whether it’s from the upper side, the lower side, or near The Puhu Restaurant on level 4, where you can truly encapsulate the vibrant green ambience of the Lobby courtyard from above.
5. Breathtaking panoramic view from The Puhu Restaurant
Everyone’s favourite spot from the deck of The Puhu Restaurant. Make everyone jealous with your moment while enjoying your breakfast and sipping a hot cappuccino.
