Bawah Reserve
Anambas Islands, Indonesia
Why Bawah Reserve is one of The World's Best 100 Resorts 2026.
Bawah Reserve spreads across six islands in Indonesia’s Anambas archipelago, making seclusion feel expansive rather than isolating. Overwater suites, jungle villas, clear lagoons and a strong marine-conservation framework create a complete island rhythm. The logistical difficulty of reaching it becomes part of the privilege.
