Live'n Lovina Loca
Lovina is a nice quiet place in the North of Bali where the French seem to flock. It is made up of 7 villages, the most touristy one being Kalibukbuk where there is a "town center" i.e. a 3 block radius with 3 mini marts, some restaurants and massage places. It mainly has black sand beaches which around our area were not appealing to swim in. …

Bali's North Shore & Back to Ubud
The journey from Ubud north to Lovina took about three hours, plus a half hour at our only stop, the Pura Bratan temple to Shiva on Lake Bratan. This large complex was packed with devotees. Lake Bratan is a good size and at 1200 m. above sea level, feeds much of central Bali with fresh water. Driving over the mountains involved a lot of slow, …
Chilling in Lovina
... from the main centre of Lovina so there were not many touts to bug us. The moment we stepped out of the resort gate we met our first tout from Bali. He wanted us to go with him to see the dolphins as this is the main attraction of Lovina. Boats that leave at 6am out to the ocean to see the dolphins. We told him we were leaving early the next morning and he offered transport services. We politely declined and walked away. We found a ticket to Ubud and decided to return ...
The unpredictability of travel!
... but to no avail and so we nipped across the road to another homestay, Rumah Roda's, and luckily they rose from their slumber to provide us with 2 lovely rooms each WITH HOT WATER!! It turned out to be a quality little homestay and we ended up spending all our time in Ubud there. Sometimes the best accommodation you just stumble across!
That night, after 12 hours of travel we just wanted to get some food, shower and hit the sack! We did, it felt amazing and ...

“Got a decent deal at this swanky place”
Reviewed Jun 19, 2011
When we bought a bus ticket from Ubud to Lovina we had several hotels written down and were just going to cruise around and try to find the best deal. Suma was on our list and it so happened that they dropped us off there.
The reception guy started taking us to a room and we quickly let him know we were nearing the end of our trip and very low on money, we wanted to know how much the cheapest room they had was. He replied 150,000ird and we went to leave, he lowered it to 100,000 so we agreed to check out the room. It was fine, mosquito net, double bed, private bath- although we had drainage issues to our bathroom was a puddle most of the time, though the toilet is on a raised platform so we didn't care, cold water, and breakfast included. They also had a huge nice pool and wifi, although the wifi was pretty shitty. Breakfast though, that was great. Several choices of eggs, omlette with ham and onions, or nasi goreng, choice of coffee or tea, comes with 2 pieces of toast, butter and jam as well as juice and fruit. After paying 100,000 in Kuta and getting worse internet and just 2 pieces of toast, gross jam and lard for breakfast, this was quite the step up.
It's right on the beach, although the beach in that area is pretty trashy and has a lot of hawkers on it. Very pushy.. This place was great for the price we payed but I wouldn't want to pay much more. The staff is nice but pretty pushy about booking trips through them. Which by the way, do not do, it's much cheaper other places, just walk around and ask.
