Starting with a noble to build friendship to all over the world and to make the rural economy stronger, since five years ago Jro Sukamaji pioneered tourism business with a very unique concept in his village .The tourists are not considered as guests but considered as a part of a family that has long been settled out of Bali, now they come back with their family to join and stay in the village with its status as a local resident.
To be a local, you will be guided to follow the activities in rural communities like the good mutual cooperation, rice planting, gardening and others. When you started to interact with the community in making a friendship ,then you will forget the hustle & bustle of your country so that the you feel the new world and will be an unforgettable experience in your life.
Lots of tourists who have visited us crying when going back to their country. They talk to me, “ Jro Sukamaji “, this is an unforgettable memory in my life , especially the friendship. We’ll come again to get closer with you . It is hard to find and hard to forget.
Immediately after landing at Bali’s International Airport, we are ready to drive you to the North for about three hours, passing countless temple, rice terraces, beautiful lake through impressive mountains with its tropical rain forest & hordes of monkeys, reaching to the highest point on the road and descending through coffee and clove plantations with breath taking views of the panorama to the sea until you reach our small oasis at foothill of original village called SUDAJI .
Sudaji Guest House is designed for those who want to enjoy the rare opportunity of the charm & magic of real Bali that seldom can be seen anymore. It is located in non-touristic area where the population and its natural pristine is still untouched by customs western world. Sudaji Guest House is managed by Jro Sukamaji with highly familial concept where guest are treated as a part of Balinese family of Jro Sukamaji.
Jro Sukamaji recommended foreign people to not stay in four or five stars hotel but lived in a native village with the Balinese family. In this way, tourist can automatically contribute in improving the rare economy because the dollars or euros will be spent and earned by the villagers. So tourist channeled money to people who really need it. Unlike staying at luxury hotel in the touristic area like Nusa Dua , Sanur, Ubud, Kuta, etc, the money goes to the rich. That is way, Jro Sukamaji proudly invite you to stay with his family in the village. For Jro Sukamaji, friendship is primary, very little meaning if you are on vocation just to enjoy the luxury hotels, delicious food and drinks.
