Barefoot luxury in a pristine piece of paradise
Halfway between Singapore and Indonesian Borneo lies the Anambas Archipelago: 200 small islands with just 45,000 inhabitants. Forgotten green specks in the ocean, pristine and pure, with an especially rich biodiversity. As you approach the six private islands of Bawah Reserve by seaplane, hues of crystal-clear sea water betray where the coral reefs lie. There, in a bay of crystal clear azure water, the aircraft landed. Only after arriving will you feel the wonderful temperature of the sea water and how fine the almost white sand is. Welcome to paradise! Here you can forget for a moment that the rest of the world exists. The accommodation is surrounded by nothing but nature, the walls breathe, there is a lot of privacy. Outside lies the pristine world of Robinson Crusoe, but inside you have every imaginable comfort. Barefoot luxury par excellence, just blissful.
