A Bit Pricey - But Well Worth the Experience
With a fairly small entrance which is somewhat hidden on the main road, it would be easy to miss this place. But this is definitely something you should not miss - it was the best thing we did in Bali!! The location is incredibly beautiful - really peaceful and serene, and we could have just sat there for hours soaking in the scenery. The grounds are well maintained, beautifully manicured and exceptionally pretty. There are two single swings and one double swing which swing out over the jungle. It's not at all scary - just peaceful and relaxing. The staff are really friendly and will push the swing as gently or as high as you ask, so there's no need to miss out on this because you're scared. It wasn't busy when we went so there was no waiting. The equipment seemed to be in very good condition and they were meticulous in making sure that the safety harness was properly fitted. Each person was given about 5/10 minutes on the swing. After the swings, we sat in the open air cafe area and they brought us the tea/coffee sampler tray which consists of 14 small cups of various flavor teas and coffees, which included the famous Luwak coffee. When you leave, you exit through the "gift shop" where all these teas and coffees are for sale. They are a bit pricey (140000 IDR for a small packet of tea, versus 50000 IDR in the supermarket) but it seems that provided you do buy something, then there is no charge for the sampler tray. The two guides with us both had regular coffee instead of the sampler tray and there was no charge for those either. Not sure how much it would have been had we not bought any tea, as there was no menu or price list around. The charge for the swings was 150000 per person (about $10 USD) which isn't really a lot of money - but it is a lot of money for what it actually is, especially when compared to the price of other things in Bali. But although we probably didn't get great value for money, we really didn't mind paying for the great experience/memories which will last a lifetime. Do not leave Bali without visiting this magical place.
