This secluded private-island resort unfurls across six untouched islands in Indonesia’s remote Anambas Archipelago, where three luminous turquoise lagoons meet pristine rainforest and powder-white sand. Reached only by seaplane and boat, Bawah Reserve is a sanctuary built entirely from reclaimed and sustainable materials, blending barefoot luxury with a deep conservation ethos.

Guests stay in thirty-six thatched-roof Tented Suites, Beach Villas and Overwater Bungalows suspended above glass-clear water, each designed to disappear into the landscape rather than dominate it. Days unfold around snorkeling coral gardens, kayaking hidden lagoons, diving shipwrecks, and dining on open-air platforms where Indonesian and international flavors meet fresh-caught seafood.

The atmosphere is unhurried and intimate — no roads, no noise, no more than a hundred guests at any time — offering a rare communion with an archipelago few travelers ever reach. It is a destination for those seeking untouched nature paired with quiet, considered indulgence.
