Frequently Asked Questions

Everything You Need to Know, All in One Place.

We’ve gathered a few quiet answers for you to help you understand Nusa Penida and what it means to arrive at The Orca Sanctuary.

What is included in the stay?

Your stay includes full villa access, daily breakfast, a welcome spa ritual, one sound healing session, tea ceremony, use of the jacuzzi, and a private dinner on your last evening. Aromatherapy, sleep tools, and curated amenities are prepared before your arrival.

There is no menu to order from. Everything has already been considered.

How do I get to Nusa Penida?

By fast boat from Bali — most commonly from Sanur Beach or Kusamba. The crossing takes 30–45 minutes depending on sea conditions.

Once your booking is confirmed, we'll send you a complete arrival guide with our recommended boat operators, current schedules, and your personal transfer arrangement from the port. You won't have to figure any of this out alone.

What is the cancellation policy?

 

Cancellations made 30 days or more before arrival receive a full refund. Cancellations within 14–29 days receive a 50% refund. Cancellations within 13 days of arrival are non-refundable but we're always happy to discuss rescheduling where possible.

If something unexpected comes up, reach out to us directly. We'd rather find a solution together.

Can I pay by credit card?

Yes. We accept major credit cards, bank transfer, and selected digital payment methods. Full payment details will be provided at the time of booking confirmation.

For international guests, payment in IDR is standard. We're happy to assist with any questions about currency or transfer.

What languages does the team speak?

Our team speaks Bahasa Indonesia and English.

Is there WiFi?

Yes, WiFi is available throughout the villa.

That said  we'd gently suggest using it less than you think you need to. The things that feel urgent from here rarely are.

Are children allowed?

The Orca is designed as a private sanctuary for couples. We welcome two adults per stay and are not able to accommodate children or additional guests at this time.

This is not a rule for its own sake  it's what makes the experience what it is.

What is the check-in / check-out time?

Check-in begins at 2pm. Check-out is at 11am.

If you'd like an early arrival or a later departure, let us know in advance and we'll do our best to accommodate. Your last morning here deserves to be unhurried  just like every other one.
