Many of the private villas at Sumberkima Hill have their own pools, and all have outrageous views. Each villa is different, so choose a one that suits your sense of style.
If a pool is important to you, be sure to book at The Menjangan's Monsoon Suites, which are a short drive from the beach. The Beach Villas have the ocean, not a pool.
The swimming pool is a real bonus at this quirky budget hideaway. Located at at the far eastern end of sandy Yeh Sumbul beach, it feels wonderfully wild here.
This resort was built on sacred land that was once exclusively the bathing area of local royalty. There are pools fed by a hot spring, as well as a cool pool, with views of the bay.
