I feel this experience at Villa Monkey because it is located just across the street from the beach Batu Karas . No, not in a crowded part of the beach and many hotels . If we see from the direction of Pangandaran and Batu Karas beach at the T-junction , turn right is part of a crowded beach . For Villa to Monkey , you turn left .

 

Monkey villa consists of a main house and three small bungalows ( and probably will increase again ) . The main house is the residence of the owner's family plus two rooms for rent . All buildings in Villa Monkey walled and thatch roofed concrete yet many open areas , so that it feels natural nuance . Very convenient because it was a light breeze , no mosquitoes , and sunshine greeted with a friendly in the morning .
