A Francophile’s fantasy in Indonesia, La Reserve 1785 Canggu Beach is the former home of Mademoiselle Henriette Reboul, reimagined by its new owner-architect with characters from the Marvel Universe, tomb-like (in a good way) spa-treatment rooms, a signature scent and traditional tropes from East Timor. The high-ceilinged suites take you back in time, with stationery sets encouraging the penning of a letter home in lieu of a social-media post. It’s so peaceful, even the birdsong stops when it’s siesta o’clock.

Food and Drink

Top Table

Enjoy a drink and a leaf through the library books in the open-air lounge, or admire the temples in the Purity Garden from Le Café Rouge.

Dress Code

French fancy.

Hotel restaurant

Not to be mistaken for a certain restaurant chain, Le Café Rouge is far more stylish than its high-street counterpart, designed in homage to Henriette’s red boudoir (but not quite as saucy as that sounds). French-Asian fusion dishes include curveball Nordic tartines and burrata, chicken-fried rice and mezze platters.
 

Hotel bar

There’s no separate bar, but drinks are served in Le Café Rouge and at the library.

Last orders

The restaurant is currently open for breakfast and lunch, from 7am until 3pm.

Room service

Food can be served in your room during restaurant opening hours.

Indonesia

La Reserve 1785 Canggu Beach is on the Indonesian isle of Bali, close to the village of Canggu on its southern shores.

Planes

From Bali’s main Ngurah Rai international airport, the drive time is 45 minutes. Hotel transfers start from IDR 490,000 each way for two passengers.

Automobiles

Scooter is the preferred mode of transport in these parts, but if you have come by car, there’s street parking available nearby.

Worth getting out of bed for

The hotel is a short distance from the sand, with helpful shuttles on hand to take you to Pererenan Beach and back between 10am and 5pm. It may be tricky to mount a surfboard onto a scooter, but some of the best surfing spots in Bali are within two minutes away on two wheels. The team will also be able to sort horse-riding, diving, trips to surrounding rice fields or the Hindu temple of Tanah Lot, and yoga, meditation and Pilates.

Local restaurants

For more beach-club options in Canggu, try Café del Mar or Finns. You may be in Indonesia, but it may as well be Italy at Cibo, which is where to head to fulfil any gelato and pasta needs; or pay homage to everybody’s favourite oversized ape over barbecued squid, seafood towers and lobster ravioli at Kong.

Local cafés

Wholesome breakfasts await at Woods on Pererenan Beach, with cocktails ready for as soon as it’s decent.

Local bars

Stick around long after sunset on Pererenan Beach for shenanigans and stiff drinks at secretive cocktail parlour the Shady Fox.

By Mr & Mrs Smith

Every hotel featured is visited personally by members of our team, given the Smith seal of approval, and then anonymously reviewed. As soon as our reviewers have returned from this boutique hotel in Indonesia and unpacked their board shorts and Buddha statues, a full account of their beach break will be with you. In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside La Reserve 1785 Canggu Beach in Bali…

A hotel particulier but all the way in Bali? Literal Francophile’s dream La Reserve 1785 Canggu Beach was created within the former home of an (obviously chic) French lady, who moved here with her Dutch-governor lover. Mademoiselle Henriette Reboul once rubbed shoulders with Coco Chanel and Picasso, and was a close friend of Paul Cézanne. As well as being a collector of antiques, she was a (so Bali) ‘love priestess’, inviting her esteemed acquaintances from all over the world to her heavenly hideaway near Canggu Beach. The property’s new architect-owner first met her when she was a student in Aix-en-Provence and would visit Mademoiselle Reboul to hear her stories over tea. Today at La Reserve, Henriette is still the honorary châtelaine, presiding over the temples, gardens and fountains of this serene sanctuary. It is, we’d wager, the only place in Bali where the decor includes Marvel characters on show alongside traditional East Timor touches. It’s time to eat, pray, love (and surf).
