Bawah Reserve is Indonesia’s leading eco-luxury resort. Only accessible by seaplane a few hours from Singapore, the resort features 36 tented suites, overwater bungalows, and pool villas set across six private islands. Built entirely from sustainably sourced bamboo and powered by a massive floating solar farm, Bawah Reserve puts environmental concerns first and foremost. Its rooms are also gorgeous, with canopy beds, copper bathtubs, and open-air designs that let guests breathe in the pristine beauty of their natural surroundings. 

Guests at Bawah are also pampered with complimentary spa treatments and farm-to-table dining. The resort is located on a 1,000-hectare marine conservation area, so guests can explore the coral reefs, spot nesting sea turtles, and enjoy barefoot luxury, while ensuring the preservation of this pristine ecosystem.

You might say that Aren was destined to become a globetrotter after his family took him to Germany two times before he was four. If that wasn’t enough, a term spent in Sweden as a young teenager and a trek across Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand confirmed that destiny. An independent writer, director, and film critic, Aren has travelled across Africa, Asia, Central America, Europe, the Middle East, and South America. His favourite travel experience was visiting the major cities of Japan’s largest island, Honshu, but his love for food, drink, and film will take him anywhere that boasts great art and culture.
