Jemeluk is a beach and bay within the wider Amed coast in Karangasem. For a holiday with repeated visits to the bay, accommodation on the Jemeluk stretch gives you a more useful starting point than a general Amed address farther along the coast. Two local choices offer quite different room layouts: individual timber cottages at Amed Lodge and garden or sea-view rooms at Sama Sama.

Match the cottage layout to your needs

Amed Lodge by Sudamala Resorts has individually named cottages whose arrangements differ considerably. Its Jemeluk cottage has a sea-facing private terrace and sofa bed. The Amed cottage is upstairs with a private balcony, while the Tulamben cottage places its bedroom upstairs and bathroom downstairs.

Those details matter for a family or anyone who wants to avoid changing floors during the night. Choose by the actual cottage layout, rather than taking the place name in a room category as an indication of which beach you will be staying beside. Its Tirtagangga cottage has a private terrace, sofa bed and direct pool access for time between bay visits.

Garden rooms or a sea view beside Jemeluk Bay

Sama Sama Amed describes its bungalows as steps from the Jemeluk snorkelling spot, with a restaurant on site. Its room list distinguishes a Deluxe Room with Sea View from a Double Room with Garden View and a Budget Double Room.

For a pair travelling together, Sama Sama's Deluxe Sea View room has a king bed, while the Garden View double has a queen bed. Choose the sea-facing category for an outlook over the coast, or the garden-facing room when that setting suits your stay.
