is right in the central area of Lovina.Lovina is very spread out along a 8 km coastal strip & made up of many villages.We prefer basing ourselves in Kalibukbuk because you don't need transport all the time,many places are within walking distance.You can enjoy quiet times in your hotel & be a stones throw away from everything. We have stayed out further & felt very isolated.
Rambutan cottages is very centrally located.It is 1 street back from the main road of Kalibukbuk (where the dolphin statue is)It has rooms to cater for all tastes from budget to deluxe rooms & villas.A cooked breakfast is included in the price.Other food & drink prices are reasonable.It has 2 pools,beautiful gardens & the staff are great.There are many very nice cafes in the same street or a short walk away.A few nice places for massages,supermarkets,bars,chemists shops,local market & shops where you can anything you want.
We have stayed there many times & loved it & so have many other forumites.If you look in the archives you will find many reports.
Richard (Expat Aussie & a forumite)& his lovely wife Tini are the owners.Contact them via their web site & mention BTF.I am confident you would be happy there.
If you need a local driver we know one with a brand new car who speaks perfect English.
