At Dajuma Beach and Dajuma Terrace, the celebration of Galungan and Kuningan is a truly special experience, honoring Bali’s rich cultural heritage. During Galungan, the resort comes alive with beautifully crafted penjor (decorative bamboo poles) lining the pathways, creating a festive atmosphere. Our guests are invited to witness traditional Balinese rituals, complete with offerings and prayers, that mark the victory of good over evil. Local dance performances and gamelan music add to the festive mood, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in authentic Balinese traditions. As Kuningan approaches, special ceremonies are held, signifying the farewell of ancestral spirits. The Dajuma Terrace offers a culinary journey with special Balinese dishes, featuring flavors that capture the essence of the celebration. This sacred time is an opportunity for our guests to connect with Balinese culture, enjoy the serene surroundings, and experience the island’s spiritual beauty firsthand.

In the heart of Pupuan Sawah, imagine a gentle morning at Dajuma Terrace which unfolds under the watchful gaze of Batukaru volcano. The sky blushes with dawn’s first light, and the air hums with serenity. You are comfortably sitting next to the emerald rice fields, where dew-kissed leaves sparkle like jewels. The attentive staff moves with quiet grace, setting out a feast of tropical fruits, freshly baked bread, and steaming coffee. The scent of frangipani mingles with the aroma of Balinese spices, awakening the senses. Every bite is a taste of paradise, every moment a gentle reminder of nature’s bounty. As the sun climbs higher, the day begins, but here, time stands still. Welcome!

Last Saturday, the Jembrana government celebrated Negara City’s anniversary with a vibrant cultural parade. The event showcased a dazzling array of participants from each district in Jembrana, along with various local institutions and companies. Pekutatan District, home to Dajuma, proudly contributed to the parade with a distinctive Gebogan display. These traditional offerings, usually made from fruits and cakes, were uniquely crafted this year using local natural products such as cloves, coffee, cocoa, and bananas. The striking Gebogan procession was enhanced by the lively beats of a Baleganjur music group and the spirited performance of a local high school marching band. The parade not only delighted our guests but also highlighted the rich cultural heritage of Jembrana and  celebrated community unity and local craftsmanship.
