2:00pm—Check into Katamama
Tucked away down a long, leafy driveway in Seminyak, Katamama's red earth brick facade looks like something you might see in Morocco. Unlike its neighbouring hotels—which have long banked on more mainstream ideas of "beachfront luxe"—Katmama goes rogue with Bohemian flair and artful touches, be it its cool collection of ceramics and artworks, artisanal in-room amenities or its eco-friendly toiletry kits (bamboo toothbrush included).
Check in is in the privacy of your room, so there’s no need to dawdle around a front desk. All rooms at Katamama are suites, generously-sized and adorned with mid-century furniture complemented by quirky bits and pieces by local artisans; the palette is a spectrum of elegant moody hues lifted by a bright marble bathroom, crisp white linens and lush views of the property’s surrounding tropical gardens.
