Escape Canggu's loud party scene at COMO, a beach club sanctuary known for its peaceful vibe and stunning sunset views. With a chic, minimalist design, it’s a photogenic paradise for relaxation. But is the high price tag justified? This honest review dives into the hit-or-miss menu—from must-try pork ribs to weak cocktails—and shares essential tips on booking, costs, and what to expect before you go for a truly tranquil experience.
The beach clubs in Canggu are insanely competitive now, with the music getting louder and louder. Trying to find a quiet place to Nongkrong on the weekend is practically a luxury. I heard that COMO is a breath of fresh air, its main vibe all about peace and quiet, so today I'm checking it out for you guys to see if it's really worth the money.
A"Sanctuary" Hidden in the Hustle and Bustle
The moment you walk in, the whole world instantly goes quiet. It's a completely different world from the wild party scenes next door, with no deafening electronic music, just the sound of the waves and the occasional soothing live music. The design is the high-end minimalist style that I love, with off-white and natural wood tones. Every corner is super photogenic, and the atmosphere is maxed out[1].
We came in the afternoon, just in time for the stunning sunset. The entire sky was painted in shades of orange and pink, so beautiful it left me speechless. It felt like my soul was being healed. The people who come here are mostly couples or families looking for some peace and quiet, and it's very kid-friendly—they even have a kids' club[2].
Food is Like a Mystery Box, Drinks are a Bit"Watered Down"
The ambiance is Mantap, but what about the food? I can only say it's like opening a mystery box.
The Pork Ribs[3] we ordered were definitely the star of the show, so tender they fell off the bone, with a rich sauce that wasn't too sweet. So delicious I'd come back just for them! My friend's Chicken Satay[4] was also on point; the meat was tender and the peanut sauce was fragrant and delicious. The pizza is also said to be very good[5].
BUT! There were quite a few misses too. Another fish dish we ordered was pretty unremarkable, with a very bland flavor[6]. And I have to complain about the cocktails here—we ordered a few different ones, and they all felt like drinking sugary fruit juice. The alcohol content was basically zero[7], Anjay! Girls who want to get a little tipsy can save their money.
Honest Talk & Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls
Honestly, the biggest selling point here is the environment. If you want to find a place in Canggu to just lie down, watch the sea, and space out without being disturbed, this is a top-tier choice. But if you're coming for the food and value for money, you might be disappointed.
Here are a few heartfelt tips for you:
Overall, this place sells its environment and atmosphere. If you think of it as a"day spa" where you pay for peace and quiet, rather than a culinary destination, you'll have a much better mindset. Would you come here? Let's chat in the comments
- Wallet Warning: It's not cheap. If you want a daybed on the beach, there's a minimum spend of 500,000 IDR per person[8]. It's easy to go over that with just a few items.
- Book and Be on Time: You must book in advance, and don't be late! They only hold the table for 20 minutes[9], and you know how Bali traffic is—be a little late and your spot will be gone.
- How to Get There: The entrance is super hard to find! It's easy to get confused on your first visit. You can enter from the beach or through a narrow alley next to the temple nearby[10].
- Allergy Alert: Friends with food allergies need to be extra careful! I saw a review saying a dish marked as"vegan" on the menu actually contained dairy[11], which is totally unacceptable!
- Lokal Friendliness: A little incident to note, a friend mentioned that the security guards seemed to question Lokal visitors more intensely. Hopefully, it was just an isolated case[12].
- A high-end minimalist sanctuary in off-white wood tones. Enjoy waves, soothing Live Music, and stunning orange-pink sunsets[1].
- Don't miss the fall-off-the-bone pork ribs! Rich, not-too-sweet sauce – irresistibly delicious[2]!
- Tired of Canggu's EDM? This top-tier chill-out haven is for seeking quiet. Kids' club for peaceful family time[3].
