What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of Canggu? The beach? The hipster cafes? Yup, from sipping coffees to suntanning on the beach, Canggu definitely has something for everyone!

The perfect vacay here starts from waking up to a beautiful beach view from your room, and heading down to the coolest cafes nearby for your favourite avo-toasts and Instagrammable smoothie bowls. Trust us, your entire day will practically fly by with a small dip in the ocean and snapping #foodporn photos from chic cafes!

Of course, that’s not all that this up-and-coming trendy spot in Bali offers. By night time, Canggu will transform into a party area where social butterflies can meet tons of friendly locals and surfers while bonding over drinks so grab your friends, dress up, and pop by one of those lively beach clubs and bars!

Canggu has so much to offer, but it can be tiring to travel back and forth to the different places. To make the most of your time, we recommend staying at one of these hotels in Canggu that are close to the beaches and cafes. This way, you won’t have to waste time traveling.

Note: This list of stays has been curated based on the hotels’ locations and proximity to the beach and trendy cafes.

The prices reflected below are the low season rates for the hotels and they exclude tax and service charges. Accommodation rates often change with room availability, and low or high seasons. We recommend double checking for the final prices before confirming your booking.

1. Get your fill of Canggu’s beach with Santorini vibes: LV8 Resort Hotel

Water you doing in Bali if you aren’t at the beach? At LV8 Resort Hotel, you don’t just get to take photos of Bali’s spectacular beaches, but also experience a touch of Santorini, the absolute beach paradise, to fulfill all your Instagram fantasies!

Lazy travellers like me would rejoice for the fact that Berawa beach is right in front of the resort so you don’t even need to get out of the hotel to see the beach for yourself. Just soak up a little sunshine by the pool facing the ocean and indulge in a cocktail (or two!) for the ultimate beachfront experience!

In Canggu, night time means party time ;). Here at the onsite beach club where international DJs occasionally make a special guest appearance, you can dance the night away without having to step out of the hotel so you can simply head back to the comfort of your room right away after the party!

When it comes to the room options, our favourite is definitely the One Bedroom Suite (with pool) that comes with all the necessities and your own private pool to let you chill and relax comfortably so do give it a shot if you’re looking for a luxe Canggu stay, and don’t mind forking out a bit more for the suite!

Otherwise, you could also drop by the restaurant itself to fill your tummy, where you can enjoy a comforting meal while admiring the abundant rice fields! Definitely worth a visit, if we must say 😉

To be honest, nothing makes the trip better than experiencing a bit of local hospitality! Here, the warm owners, Nicole and Wayan, stay on the premises so they are always available to help you out, and they might even be up for a short chat about what’s happening in Canggu!

This place is called The Hideaway, but it’s not an obscure place that’s cut off from civilization. In fact, you would only be a short 15-minute walk away from the beach with quite a few cafes in the area so there’s plenty of exciting things for you to see once you step out!

With all the hustle and bustle of Canggu, and chill vibes within the stay, The Hideaway seems to have successfully combined the best of both worlds – just send us there already!!

TripCanvas Tip: This place offers car and bike rentals as well, so you have more transport options to explore Canggu (in case you’re not into  walking ;))

9. Stunning oceanfront infinity pool with unique pool deck COMO Uma Canggu

As you enter the master bedroom of this luxurious three-bedroom penthouse, slide the door of the pool deck and you’ll be greeted by a sunlit infinity pool, overlooking panoramic views of the Indian Ocean.

Isn’t this celeb-worthy suite simply the ideal luxury nest for a very special getaway?

Notice that the arc-shaped pool deck makes the perfect frame for sipping cocktails on lazy afternoons, and we think this is arguably the best feature of the penthouse – COMO Uma Canggu’s latest addition.

The penthouse is designed and furnished to please and excite the most fastidious of you – spacious, bright, with nods to both traditional and modern!

Aside from the usual dining options, the resort features a healthy grab-and-go juice bar- no excuses not to keep up with your New Year’s resolution! Healthy drinks, snacks and salads are all you can find at the Glow Juice Bar.

Experiences at the COMO Uma Canggu are endless. They include surfing classes, golf, tours at nearby attractions but also soothing moments at the resort spa.

And when your vacation stay is one that includes services from a private butler, you know it is one to consider!

10. Bask in Ubud’s views while having fun in Canggu’s cafe and beach scene: Canggu Beach Inn

Rumour has it that back in the old days, Canggu and Ubud had a lot in common and attracted a somewhat similar crowd. Fast forward to today, Ubud has turned into a yogi community while Canggu is now a paradise for surfers and hipster cafe lovers.

However, at Canggu Beach Inn, the homey stay gives a different spin to the usual Canggu street scene by offering a quiet respite with bits of old Bali. You’ll know what we’re talking about when you get there, as you walk down the corridor with a view of Bali’s iconic rice paddy fields!
