3. Covid-19 related protocols a) e-HAC Stands for Electronic Health Alert Card, e-HAC is a mobile app that functions just like its name: a health alert identification for screening and monitoring purposes. This app is made to be used especially for all domestic and international travelers who travel to, from, and within Indonesia during the pandemic with the means of minimizing the risk of transmission by travelers. The e-HAC system was developed by the Indonesian Ministry of Health, specifically the Directorate of Surveillance and Quarantine Health of the Directorate General of Prevention and Disease Control. The Indonesian government requires the public to fill in the data in the e-HAC app as an effort to detect, prevent, and control public health emergencies through entry points (airports, harbors, and land border posts). Currently, based on the Circular of the Minister of Health No. HK.02.01 /Menkes/847/2021, e-HAC has been integrated with the PeduliLindungi app. Therefore, you can now get your e-HAC by downloading and installing the PeduliLindungi app. b) PeduliLindungi PeduliLindungi is an official mobile app designed by the Indonesian government that relies on community participation to share location data with each other for contact tracing purposes. The user of this app can get the information of COVID-19 distribution zoning
area (red, yellow, green) according to the chosen location. Furthermore, the user can also get a notification if they are entering a red zone area, which then will help them take better preventive measures. This app can also contain the user’s data from the government related to COVID-19, such as health status, vaccination cards, and eHAC, which according to the Circular of the Minister of Health No. HK.02.01 /Menkes/847/2021 has now been integrated with the app. PeduliLindungi app can be downloaded and installed from Google Play Store (Android) or App Store (iOS). The user can simply register using full name, e-mail, phone number, and ID card number (NIK). Meanwhile, foreign nationals who got their vaccine from their country of origin can verify their identity at vaksinln.dto.kemkes.go.id to register on the PeduliLindungi app. c) CHSE Certification In order to prevent further spread of COVID-19, the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy enforces the practice of cleanliness, health, safety, and environmental sustainability (CHSE) protocols across the tourism industry as mandatory precautions. Businesses in Indonesia that are tourism-related will be given CHSE certification as a proof of their proper implementation of the protocols. There are specific criterias required for tourism-related businesses to be given CHSE certification. Those criterias are: • Cleanliness Aside from routine cleaning with disinfectant, business owners must ensure the provisions of complete handwashing facilities for the visitors. Owners must also make sure that the place is free from disease-bearer animals. • Health Business owners need to pay attention to the health of both their workers and visitors by implementing body temperature checking, strict obligations of wearing a mask, and practicing social distancing. • Safety To maintain security and safety, business owners need to arrange rescue procedures to be conducted in emergency conditions. • Environmental Sustainability
Every tourism-related business owner needs to ensure the environmental sustainability aspects within their facility, such as the use of eco-friendly equipment and materials. Right now, there are approximately 1,009 tourism-related businesses that have been given CHSE certification. It is targeted that there will be 6,500 by the end of 2021. You can find all the tourism-related businesses that have been given CHSE certification by visiting https://chse.kemenparekraf.go.id/ d) COVID-19 Vaccine Certificate Since the COVID-19 vaccination program started targeting the general public, the government launched the initiative of granting COVID-19 vaccine certification to those who have received the vaccine. Embedded with a QR Code, this certificate is also integrated into the PeduliLindungi mobile app for ease of access. Based on the Instructions from the Minister of Internal Affairs No. 42 of 2021, COVID-19 vaccine certification has become a mandatory requirement for those who want to visit certain public places (malls, cinemas, restaurants, etc) in the cities or regencies with Level 2-3 Community Restrictions. e) A Variety of COVID-19 Tests The Indonesian government also made many varieties of COVID-19 tests available for the public. Those are molecular fast test (TCM), polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test, and rapid test. Molecular fast testing methods use phlegm with cartridge-based nucleic acid amplification. SARS-COV-2 is identified on the RNA which uses a special cartridge. The results of this test are quite fast, which only takes approximately two hours. This test can be done in 132 appointed hospitals and public health centers. The PCR test method uses mucous samples from the nose or throat. The active SARS-COV2 will display an RNA genetic material, which is amplified by the PCR test. Unlike TCM, this check method takes longer to get the results because it goes through two processes, namely extraction and amplification. Unlike the two types mentioned above, the rapid test uses blood samples, which is used to detect immunoglobulin: a type of antibody that is formed when the body experiences infection. Rapid tests can be done anywhere and it takes a relatively short time to get the result, which is only approximately 15-20 minutes.
Those are 5 health protocols that are implemented in Indonesia. Make sure to fully understand them all for your future holiday preparations. All these protocols are made because, as being expressed in the spirit of InDOnesia CARE, we do care for your safety and convenience the most. Therefore, we also kindly encourage you to stay safe and practice healthy habits such as wearing a mask in public, implementing social distancing, and washing your hands frequently with soap and running water. 4.

Beaches a) Blue point beach Located at Ungasan area approximately 15 minutes from the resort. Blue Point Beach, otherwise known as Suluban Beach, is hidden behind rugged limestone formations in Pecatu, near Uluwatu. Admittedly, getting here is something of an oceanic obstacle course – you’ll access the sand via steps and log ramps that traverse slim slits in the rocks – but that just makes the eventual dip in those waters more satisfying. You’ve probably never been to a hard-to-find Balinese cave-beach before; change that here. Thanks to its vigorous waves, Blue Point is well suited to surf sessions (less so to swimming and sunbathing); it’s also a popular spot for camping and sunset bonfires. b) Geger Beach
Located at Nusa Dua area approximately 10 minutes from the resort. Touted by some as southern Bali’s most beautiful beach – quite the title, given the competition – Geger is deliciously secluded, just the right level of quiet, and home to calm, safe waters. This beach is perfect for swimmers, families and slower-paced ocean adventures; if you want to try your hand (or legs) at watersports, you’re also in the right place. Keen golfers could tie in a visit to the Nusa Dua Golf Course. Nudity-loving sunbathers, take note; you can peel off your bikini top here. c) Pemuteran Located at Buleleng area approximately 3,5 hours from the resort. Underrated, understated Pemuteran is in the northwest of the island, in an area usually overlooked by tourists – and all the better for it. The village is backdropped by jagged mountain ranges; the beach is secluded and scenic. Pemuteran is a prime spot for scuba diving, but thanks to its peacefulness and photogenic good looks, it also over-delivers on R&R. d) Bias Tugel Beach Located at Karangasem area approximately 3 hours from the resort. This small and kneeweakening lovely beach is set in the quiet village of Padangbai, in East Bali. You’ll do a short trek from the main road past the cape to get to the beach, but it won’t be in vain. Buy drinks and snacks from one of the local vendors and rent snorkels and fins to explore underwater (the eastern end of the reef is ripe for prime sealife spotting). The journey here is richly rewarded by powder-soft sands, rock pools and azure waves. e) Seminyak Beach Located at Seminyak area approximately 45 minutes from the resort. One for the hedonists, this sparkling, five-kilometre stretch of golden sand in Seminyak is scattered with buzzy beachfront bars, boutiques, restaurants, five-star stays and watersports companies promising adventures – all of which attract an upscale crowd. Extending from the outskirts of Kuta all the way up to the coastal corners of Canggu, Seminyak Beach offers plenty of choices when it comes to sun loungers and sunset spots. During the day, it’s a sceney surfer’s paradise. f) Kuta Beach
Located at Kuta area approximately 45 minutes from the resort. Kuta needs no introduction, but here’s one anyway: Bali’s most famous/infamous tourist hotspot pulls in the crowds and continues to redevelop its beachfront with wild abandon. Discerning travellers could jet into the Ngurah Rai International Airport in Tuban and – having conquered passports and security – be on Kuta Beach in mere minutes. Everything’s here for the taking: swimming, sunbathing, surfing, sailing, beachside drinking and dining, paragliding, partying and more... g) Karma Kandara Beach Located at Uluwatu area approximately 30 minutes from the resort. As nicknames go, ‘Billionaire’s Row’ doesn’t sound too shabby. That's the moniker given to the patch of Bali’s Bukit Peninsula where you’ll find the ravishingly beautiful (and achingly hip) resort of Karma Kandara, home to a celebrity-seducing beach. If money is no object, bed down at the resort; otherwise, guests can buy a day pass to the beach club and lap up the luxury with an on-loan sun lounger and umbrella. To spot visiting off-duty A-listers, naturally. Plus, it happens to be a total tropical haven. h) Balangan Beach Located at Jimbaran area approximately 35 minutes from the resort. Balangan Beach is easily reached from Kuta, with many local hotels offering a handy shuttle service. It’s also just a kilometer away from another Balinese beach icon: Dreamland. When you arrive, refresh yourself with ice cream and/or ice-cold beer from one of the beachside warungs. Boasting more natural beauty than your average Brazilian supermodel on a good day, Balangan has an eye-popping, half-kilometer stretch of caramel-colored sand, shielded by a greenery-clad limestone cliff that snakes into the water like a lounging crocodile. 8. Temples a) Pura Besakih
The holiest of all temples in Bali, the "Mother Temple" of Pura Besakih is located some 3,000 feet up Gunung Agung in East Bali. This sprawling complex consolidates 23 separate temples, some dating back to the 10th century. The temple's main axis aligns with the peak of Gunung Agung, the tallest mountain and holiest site in all of Bali. b) Pura Gunung Kawi Located about a mile south of Tampaksiring, Bali's "Valley of the Kings" is located in a ravine between ricefields. The Pakerisan river flows through this ravine, and the cliffs flanking the river feature shrines carved into the stone honoring kings and queens from the 11th century. The Balinese - big believers in the holiness of water - believe that the river sanctifies Pura Gunung Kawi. c) Tirta Empul The sacred spring that feeds Tirta Empul provides holy water for priests and bathing for ordinary Balinese, who believe that a dip hereabouts can bring good fortune and health. An offering must first be made at the temple before you can climb into the long main pool to bathe and meditate. The temple pond has a spring which gives out fresh water regularly, which Balinese Hindus consider to be holy or amritha where Balinese Hindus go to for ritual purification to cleanse their souls and ward off evil. This tradition still continues almost unchanged, and today, aside from worshipers, tourists from all over the world also come to this place to marvel at its beauty, and bathe in its refreshing blessed water.
Participating in a bath ritual here means either a spiritually rewarding experience. Or a simply refreshing bath on cold mountain water. Either way, it's just interesting to be part of this religious ritual. So, queue to get in the water and follow the examples of Balinese in front of you. To perform Melukat ritual, one needs to dress in traditional sarong wrap around the body. d) Pura Luhur Lempuyang Obscurity aside, the temple of Pura Luhur Lempuyang is one of Bali's most important religious places: it's one of the six sad kahyangan ("temples of the world") dedicated to Sang Hyang Widi Wasa (the supreme God), and it's also one of the island's nine directional temples that "protects" the native Balinese from evil spirits. e) Goa Gajah “Elephant Cave” Known as the "Elephant Cave", Goa Gajah seems strangely free from elephants until you realize it takes its name from its proximity to the Elephant River. (Which is also strangely lacking in elephants.) Goa Gajah's key attraction is the menacing entrance to the cave - the surrounding rock has been carved into a face, mouth agape. f) Pura Tanah Lot
Tanah Lot stands on a rock some distance from the shore, towering over the sea. Access to the temple is limited to low tide; even so, this picturesque temple is barraged by visitors.The temple's construction was supposedly inspired by the priest Nirartha in the 15th century; after spending the night on the rock outcrop where the temple now stands, he instructed local fishermen to build a temple on that site. g) Pura Taman Ayun Built in the 1600s by the King of Mengwi, Pura Taman Ayun survives today as a beautiful example of a royal public temple. The descendants of the Mengwi royal family still sponsor the temple, which also serves as the clan kawitan temple (a temple dedicated to the worship of the deified ancestors, in this case the previous rulers of the Mengwi royal family) h) Pura Ulun Danu Bratan This temple on the shores of Lake Bratan is second only to Pura Besakih in significance, but for rice farmers in Bali, this temple is the foremost on the island. Pura Ulun Danu Bratan is the primary temple in the many temples and shrines that punctuate thesubak irrigation system popular in Bali. The temple is dedicated to the worship of the goddess of lakes and rivers, Dewi Batari Ulun Danu. i) Pura Goa Lawah
The temple of Pura Goa Lawah in East Bali is centered around a cave inhabited by thousands of bats. A black-sand beach nearby makes Goa Lawah a popular site for postcremation purification, for the Balinese families that can afford it. 9.
