Bawah Reserve
Bawah island, Indonesia
Surrounded by clear turquoise waters, blue lagoons and coral reefs, this pristine and previously uninhabited marine conservation area caters to outdoor adventurers with an appetite for indulgence as well as paradise seekers looking for relaxation. Bawah offers the true meaning of sustainable luxury.
The Bawah narrative is nothing short of a love story: an island paradise, at risk of destruction by illegal dynamite fishing, rescued with a desire to protect it and see it to flourish. The owners have created Bawah with a passionate commitment to preserve it as an ecological utopia. The 6 islands are now a designated marine conservation area, making it illegal to fish in its waters. The design and build of the resort was planned to avoid damage and erosion, and prevent the destruction of the mature island flora.

The suite’s tented ceiling canopy stretches across the veranda for a shaded daytime reading spot on the five-metre daybed. Open the canopy to the elements or close the sides as you prefer.

Infrastructure
Singapore architect, Sim Boon Yang, was tasked with creating a holistic design, using sustainable sources of bamboo, found and recycled woods, and “A design ethos of optimum comfort while also minimising energy requirements and having a light impact on the environment.” Melding contemporary taste with indigenous craftsmanship, he has delivered exquisite, exotic structures built on footings that require minimal interference with the natural terrain. His inspiration for the soaring, organic curves of the roofs of the public pavilions, which cascade down the hill, was the shape and silhouette of the islands themselves, presenting a refreshing alternative in architectural style and five-star flair.
