We just spent a week with our family (With 2 children of 11) at Pelan Pelan with the surf package and loved it! The place, gardens and bungalows are gorgeous, all of the staff are so personable and made us feel immediately at home; the food is great and the atmosphere with such a diverse group of people amazing. Young, older, families, singles, couples, 8 nationalities in the time we were there; it all felt super relaxed. People mingling (or not if you didn’t feel like it). Emma and Putu, the hosts really created something special. Close to the hustle and bustle and beach clubs of Canggu (15 min drive), but a very peaceful, quiet, relaxed and beautiful place in itself.
The surf lessons were the highlight. All of the surf coaches were amazing; Rino, Alit, Silla, Komang and of course Putu were really super involved; helping with timing, technique and that little extra push when needed. We learned all of the basics and catching/riding a wave ourselves in a week and had time every afternoon to explore the area, make trips or just relax. Absolutely recommend it and we’ll be back!
