BLESSING WEDDING CEREMONY AT DAJUMA BEACH

/in

Last Thursday, we had the pleasure of hosting a beautiful blessing wedding ceremony for our valued guests at Dajuma Beach. Our repeat guests from Germany, Sonja and Achim, arranged this special occasion for their daughter, Alisa, and her husband, Daniel. Having already celebrated their official wedding in Germany, the couple wished to experience a meaningful blessing ceremony in Bali. The ceremony was gracefully led by a priest from Pekutatan Village and followed by an intimate private dinner to commemorate the joyous event. The celebration was attended by a small circle of ten family members — the bride and groom, their parents, and close relatives — creating a warm and heartfelt atmosphere. A gentle drizzle blessed the evening, as if nature itself joined in witnessing their love and commitment. Our sincere congratulations to Alisa and Daniel, and to their proud parents, Sonja and Achim!

Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Mr. Reinout Joannes and his wife to Dajuma Terrace for a six-night stay. Eager to delve into the secrets of Balinese cuisine, they chose to participate in our traditional Balinese cooking class. During the session, they were introduced to a rich array of Indonesian spices, seasonings, and traditional cooking techniques. The menu featured several classic dishes, including our signature Sate Lilit Jukut Ares—a flavorful satay made with banana stem and aromatic herbs—as well as popular Indonesian favorites like spring rolls and a hearty Rendang bowl. Guided by our talented Chef Suta and his team, the couple showed great enthusiasm and curiosity. They asked thoughtful questions, carefully followed each step, and especially enjoyed the hands-on process of shaping the satay, which deepened their appreciation for Balinese culinary traditions. At the end of the class, Mr. Reinout and his wife were delighted to savor the fruits of their labor. They expressed sincere satisfaction and gratitude to our team, making it a truly rewarding experience for everyone involved.

WEDDING ANNIVERSARY AT DAJUMA BEACH

At Dajuma, we love to see our guests turning their precious moments into unforgettable memories. Last week, a family from Germany chose our Beach Garden as the setting to celebrate a wedding anniversary, and it was nothing short of magical. As the sun slowly dipped into the horizon, our gardeners had transformed the garden into a charming, flower-filled venue, perfectly blending with the surrounding nature. Eric, acting as butler for the evening, ensured every detail was just right. From the first toast to the last smile, he accompanied the family with attentive and heartfelt service. It was a simple yet deeply moving celebration, a reminder of how special togetherness can be when shared in such a serene place. At Dajuma, we feel honored to host these unique milestones. Each celebration is a story in itself, and we are grateful to be part of them.

VISIT OF PUPUAN SAWAH PRIMARY SCHOOL

/in

As part of our eco-policy and our commitment to sustainability, we offer our guests various activities that connect them with local villagers—mainly farmers at Dajuma Terrace and fishermen at Dajuma Beach. One of the most popular experiences is the village walking tour, which allows guests to engage with the community, visit private houses and temples, explore the rice field irrigation system, observe prahu (traditional boat) construction, and, as a highlight, visit the local school. Last week, our guest Roland from Germany, had the opportunity to enjoy this enriching experience. Touched by their visit, he generously decided to gift a parcel to each pupil at the Pupuan Sawah school. Our colleague Gusti on the photo was in charge of conveying the parcels on behalf of Roland after his departure from Bali. Judging by the radiant smiles in the photos, it’s clear how meaningful this visit was for everyone involved!

On October 17, under a golden sunset, the couple exchanged heartfelt stories of their love, surrounded by the warmth and joy of their loved ones. The evening blossomed into an intimate dinner beneath the moonlit sky, with the gentle sound of waves adding to the magic. It was a truly unforgettable celebration, cherished by all who attended this special day. Our sincere congratulations dear Anny and Daniel!

SCHOOL GUESTS

There is also another way to discover Bali: simply by visiting the villages and more precisely the village schools. By talking to villagers, teachers and students, you can learn a lot about social life in Bali today. This is what is offered to our guests in a tour entitled “Village life and rice farming”: after a long bike ride in the rice fields and a rice farming exercise in real size, they are invited to visit a village and its primary school. A very interesting moment of sharing. As the photo shows, 4 of our guests made it last week and came back absolutely delighted!
