The location
Nusa Penida's icons, on foot.
Day-trippers spend an hour on the road and arrive with the crowds. From Raja Lima you are at the Treehouse in 2 minutes and on Diamond Beach or Atuh Beach in 10, early in the morning or late in the afternoon, when the crowds are gone. For sunrise, our ocean deck has the best view.
Tip: Diamond Beach faces east, so go early. Atuh Beach stays sunny all day.
Welcome to Raja Lima
A quiet corner of Nusa Penida.
Raja Lima is a small village of wooden bungalows on the cliffs of Nusa Penida's east coast, run by a warm local team. Here, on the unspoiled side of the island, your days are filled with the ocean, the palms and the gentle sound of the waves.
Days here start with sunrise over the Thousand Islands and end with a slow dinner on the terrace. Here, slowing down comes naturally.
What you'll find here
- Peace and space. An ocean view to wake up to every morning.
- Made for couples and solo travellers. Perfect for a honeymoon, a slow holiday or time on your own.
- Room for your group. Friends, birthdays and retreats are all welcome.
- The island's icons on foot. Diamond Beach and Atuh Beach are a short walk away. Go early in the morning or late in the afternoon, before and after the crowds.
- Time for yourself. Rest, read, practise yoga and enjoy a massage at shi•ra spa.
- Good food with a view. Long meals and quiet evenings on the terrace.
- Little visitors. Geckos are a symbol of Bali and help keep flies and mosquitoes away. You may sometimes hear their sound in the garden or around the bungalow roofs. They are completely harmless.
What you won't find here, and why we love it
- No parties or nightlife. Evenings here end with stars, the sound of the waves and an early night, ready for sunrise.
- No busy social scene. It's a quiet place to slow down, read, and talk with the people you came with.
- No busy restaurant street. Just a few nice little local restaurants and a mini-mart next door. At Raja Lima, our own restaurant serves food from 7 am to 10 pm.
- No TV in the room. The view is your screen: sunrise over the Thousand Islands every morning.
- No fridge or minibar. Fresh coconuts, juices and cold drinks are always ready at our bar, a short walk away.
- Hand showers. Running water is not yet available on this side of the island, so we bring fresh water in by truck every day. That is why we keep showers short.
Hotel views
Watch the sky and the ocean change, from sunrise to sunset.
Every morning the sun rises over the Thousand Islands and the Lombok Strait, right in front of our ocean deck, a few steps from your bungalow. From then on, the view never stays the same.

Rest · Rooms & bungalows
Wooden bungalows, ocean air.

“Exceptional experience,” says Kai.
Our massage is an invitation to slow down, soften and reconnect with yourself. Our experienced local women therapists do not follow a fixed routine: they listen to your body and adapt every treatment, at your preferred pressure.
Heart-led treatments
Skilled local women therapists.
Every treatment is customised to your preferred pressure, by therapists who truly listen to the body.
Evening · The restaurant & bar
Eat well and enjoy the view.
