Java Cove Beach Hotel

JavaCove Beach Hotel

Designed in simple tropical-minimalist style, this small surfside hotel is located in front of a long righthand pointbreak in the relaxed village of Batu Karas, West Java, Indonesia. Come discover somewhere special.

Batu Karas is a place for people in search of a laidback holiday where you can do as much or as little as you like: surf fun warm water waves peeling through a sandbottom bay; explore a national park teeming with jungle life; cruise in a canoe through emerald green river gorges; swim in crystal clear waterfalls; take in a shadow puppet show in a quaint village setting. Or you might prefer to just kick back in a hammock with a book...

Surf Spots

THE POINT at Batu Karas

Righthand pointbreak that rolls through a sand bottom bay in front of the hotel for up to 400 metres.

The takeoff is up to you: fast and hollow beyond the point, or slow and easy at the shoulder section. After takeoff the wave mellows out with workable walls through to the far end of Batu Karas bay. This second section is a 'longboard heaven' and ideal for beginners.

THE REEF at Batu Karas

Righthander with an easy takeoff that leads into fast walls unraveling over a lava reef. This spot can turn on some real quality with down-the-line speed and barrels on offer in the right conditions. Breaks from waist high to overhead.

There's also beachbreaks nearby, and 40 mins drive from Batu karas is a lefthand barrelly reefbreak that works on small swells.
