Our swimming pool is without a doubt one of the best in Bali. Not only because of it's beach front position and negative edge / infinity design, where you feel you are swimming out and over the ocean. But because you will never be exposed to chlorine, bromide or salt. This is Indonesia's first ever pure water swimming pool system. We do it for our guests enjoyment, and to make sure we do not polute the sea / damage the coral offshore.

How do we do it? First, water is recirculated. Over the negative edge onto small rocks (to retain any large objects and to help filter out algae!), then through sand box filters to remove smaller particles. Bacteria and algae are killed by the specially designed, British manufactured UV (ultra violet) sterlization system. Then finally, the water is fed back into the pool through specialist magnets, imported from the USA. These agitate the minerals in the water help achieve a satisfactory pH.

Our pool man keeps an eye on the mineral content, adjusting it as necessary. And every so often, we have to filter the phosphate out of the water (phosphate is what algae lives on). Of course, you may never see all the mechanics of this happening. But you will feel it. Soft, almost drinking quality water that does not sting your eyes, or make you cough. We do have to periodically add shock chlorine to combat algae, but we only do this at quiet periods and then run the UV system for 24 hours (which breaks down the chlorine until it is totally gone).

The free form pool has a maximum depth of 1.85 meters, a central frangipani tree island theme and a children's area. The surrounding palm shaded sun deck area is ideal for our sun lounges / deck chairs. It also doubles as a stage for evening cultural performances to entertain guests in their private dining Bales. At night, the pool area is lit by flood lights high in the palm trees. Children's floatation devices (water wings, etc.) are available. Snorkeling lessons also can be provided. Our staff, of course, provide a pool / beach towel service.
