Lali Jiwa is a private, absolute beachfront villa on 1200m2 of tropical land in Tulamben, East Bali. Large, open living spaces and three bedrooms accommodates six people comfortably. When you first enter the property, you’ll see a large, honey mango tree. The Balinese consider it special and call it “Lali Jiwa", which translates literally as "don't forget your heart/soul”. That’s how the villa got its name. Located on the spectacular East coral coast, away from the hectic side of Bali, Lali Jiwa is the only independent, absolute beachfront villa in Tulamben. It has a traditional Balinese feel being built from teak and slate. Its elevated position allows for stunning views. Renovated and upgraded in 2021, with over 200 square metres of light-filled spacious accommodation surrounded by lush tropical gardens, plus an 8m x 4m infinity pool, the villa is all about embracing Bali’s laid back way of life. It has uninterrupted ocean views from all over the property, extensive grassed areas, alfresco dining, large gazebo and many pockets to sit, relax and watch the glorious sunrises. It’s nestled away from busy roads, but close to everything you’ll need during your stay.

Tulamben is a quiet fishing village, but what lies beneath its sea makes it a destination for many people from around the world. Coral reefs are right in front of the villa and strung along the coastline, but it's main attraction sunk over 60 years ago. The USAT Liberty was torpedoed during WWII while crossing the Lombok Strait, making its way to Bali but breached off Tulamben and sank. It's among the best and most popular snorkeling and dive sites in Bali, even for beginners. It's lies just 30m off shore and starts at 5m deep. Much of the huge 125m long wreck can be seen from the surface. Travelling to Lali Jiwa from the airport, you will pass extensive rice paddies, monkeys in the wild, beautiful scenery, many attractions and see traditional Balinese life. A sign on the road, just north of the centre of Tulamben, clearly marks Lali Jiwa's location. Within a short walk, there are all the main services you'll need during your stay and nearby is an ATM, medical services, money exchange, many restaurants and a nearby morning market. Being away from the main tourist area, there are no hawkers. Tulamben is a wonderful place to base your holiday.
