We believe that every visitor can support a more sustainable form of tourism, by not only spending money here but spending responsibly, rewarding the businesses that are concerned about Ceningan, its environment and its people. It’s always our choice whether we are part of the problem or part of the solution.

Numbers of health facilities are very limited. Mostly are only small clinics serving locals.
