About Mulia Bungalow

A quiet corner of Rote Island

Nestled behind ancient trees and steps from the beach, Mulia Bungalow is a small, family-run property in Nembrala — the heart of Rote's surf and beach scene.

Eight individually named bungalows sit in a lush tropical garden facing the ocean. Stone-carved bathrooms, hardwood doors, private terraces, and real Indonesian hospitality. No pretension. Just a great place to be.

Rote Island is what Bali was 30 years ago. Come while it's still like this.

Surf

World-class waves, right at your door

Nembrala sits at the epicentre of Rote's legendary surf. T-Land — one of the longest and most consistent left-hand breaks in the world — is a short walk or scooter ride away.

But that's just the headline. The area is packed with named breaks for every level: from the mellow fun of Saki Mamas and Banana to the heavy barrels of Petrol Bombs and Squealers. Boa, Doo, 1 Palm, Oeselis — every tide and swell brings options.

Surf season: May to September for consistent swells. Year-round rideable waves.
