Close to everything you need. And far enough to be away from the crowds. Surrounded by jungle

It is a bustling spot for locals, business owners and tourists alike, who visit in the early morning to get their hands on the freshest seafood around. With the traditional colorful boats crowding along the shore in the clear morning light and the lively flock of sellers and customers, it’s a spectacular sight.
If you arrive at around 6 am, you can see the incredible sight of these vivid Jukung (traditional Balinese canoes) returning to shore after a night at sea. The market is made up of three sections: a wholesale area, an area for selling to the general public, and directly on the beach you can find local fishermen selling their wares.

La Baracca is my favorite one in the neighborhoods. You will require a mean of transportation to get there. It is just before the entrance to Uluwatu paving lane (to the Single Finn) on the right hand side of the road to Uluwatu from the villas.
Italian food but not only pizzas and pastas (although those ones are really really god) Service is quick, which is pretty unusual in Bali, and most of the time everybody is getting its plate at the same time. Scooter 10 minutes.
Relax
Affordable prices

They hope their philosophy can impact every customer and team member to know that you’ll only see whatever you want happening
if you first truly believe it will.
