Hidden Paradise

All inclusive King Fisher Resort The Resort, located directly in front of world class wave Lance’s Left, is made up of three traditional
style luxury beachfront bungalows all handmade by Mentawai craftsmen as well as one modern luxury suite with a private
plunge pool, AC and hot showers.

Set against a lush jungle backdrop, each private bungalow is positioned on the palm fringed white sand beachfront with panoramic views of
the spectacular wave Lances Left. You can literally step from your bungalow terrace onto the sand and into the ocean within seconds. The
design of our bungalows combines the best of the local look and feel with the rigor and comfort that most Western travelers enjoy. The result
is an elegant yet strikingly exotic experience. The bungalows, designed for breathtaking views of the bay and wave, each have a big spacious
terrace with comfortable lay back chairs that induce dozing off to the sound of the ocean and birds of the jungle. Maximum privacy is
assured thanks to the natural landscape and property design. A fully furnished living room area inside the bungalow creates a homely feel.
Each private bungalow can accommodate up to four people.

BEACH AND BAR SWIMING POOL
The pool is surrounded by a massive outdoor wooden deck which connects to the beach bar. The beach bar is open daily serving
healthy smoothies, fresh juices, coconuts and more!
