On my last trip to Bali, I visited this dreamy, colourful, insta-worthy place located at Nusa Ceningan, Le Pirate Beach Club.
When I first saw it on Instagram, I couldn't believe how pretty it was! And the best part is, it's as pretty as the pictures! ?

//GETTING THERE//
We wanted to stay there for two nights, but it was fully booked so we decided to make it a day trip instead. A day before our flight, we called Le Pirate to arrange our transportation from the airport to Le Pirate, and back to the airport again.
Upon arrival (around 8am), we stored our luggages here at the airport (cost IDR 50,000/day). Then, we met our driver at the designated place at 9am. Now off we go to Sanur beach to take a speedboat!
It took around 45mins, and we were greeted by this shell-less mermaid statue.
Here's the complete list of the boats. Ours was the bottom left (speedboat to Nusa Lembongan - Mushroom Bay).
You will pass through this colourful alley before reaching the pick-up point.
Sampai! We took the 11:30am boat.
Waiting, waiting...
Enjoying the beach view for a minute.
Yay! Our boat has arrived!
We must first took off our sandals... to keep the boat clean, I guess? They will give them back to you once you reach Nusa Lembongan, don't worry.
After a 30-minute boat ride, we arrived at Nusa Lembongan! Look at the clear water ?
Then our guide got us a rental car to get to Nusa Ceningan. You can also rent it yourself there (either a car or motorbike).
The bridge was so cute, it would be a sin not to take a picture.
Picked up by Le Pirate staff on a motorbike at the end of the bridge.
If you can ride a motorbike, you might as well rent one at the boat drop-off point to explore the island.

Yesss! We finally arrived at this gorgeous place!! Aaand my camera ran out of battery. So, we headed straight to the restaurant to charge the battery and ordered ourselves some fried bananas and banana pancakes! Not tasty, I must say...
But they got beer, so it's all good :D
After my battery was fully charged, we went straight to shoot! We only got time until 3pm, so we must be quick! (3:30pm was the pick-up time)
The pool ?
Uber cute parasol!!
The clich� pose lol.
Freaking love the colour combo here!!!
I wish I could take this beach chair home with me!
Some of you asked where did I buy this heart sunglasses. I bought it at one of the stores on Takeshita Street, Harajuku, Japan :)
Braided my hair to "survive" the flight, boat, and motorbike rides, lol. *I'm so thoughtful*
Here's the "Beach Boxes" where you can spend the night, SO CUTE I KNOW! And they only have 10 boxes in total, TEN! That's why you need to book in advance. The sooner you book, the bigger your chance of getting a room! Note that a minimum stay period of 2 nights is required.
Btw don't expect a spacious room here. This one is for 1-2 persons (IDR 700,000/night):
Yup, that's it! But it's equipped with air conditioning, so I guess it's comfortable enough.
? This is the Bunk Bed type (max 4 persons) - IDR 700,000/night
? Private outdoor bathroom with shower, wash basin and toilets (no hot water).
? Freshened up a bit with this pi�a colada from the cocktail pool bar.
Again, not so tasty, but fresh enough and insta-worthy, lol.
This dress ?
Spending our last few minutes at The Lounge ?
Changed outfit again! And I love these culottes like a lots!
Messy braids?
Happy day is happy! (???)?
Went back to the boat pick-up point on a motorbike again, and saying goodbye to this view ?
Arrived at Sanur beach, and look at all the sandals ?
Just don't wear your favourite sandals or shoes ok!
Overall, I love how beautiful, private and secluded Le Pirate is. Perfect for those who need to take a break from all the hustle and bustle. :)

Oh anyway, as I said earlier, we arranged a pick-up and drop-off from Le Pirate Beach Club including: airport pick-up, car ride to Sanur beach, speedboat ride to Nusa Lembongan (Mushroom Bay), car&motorbike ride to Le Pirate Beach Club then back to Mushroom Bay, speedboat ride back to Sanur beach, car ride back to the airport; all of them for IDR 1mil for 2 persons. It would be cheaper if you go there by yourself, of course. Good luck! And if you have any questions, just leave a comment down below :)
