Our grounds — Nature as Your Surroundings

75,000 m2 of Lush Indigenous Gardens // Secluded White Sandy Beaches // Bee Cultivation // Vegetable Farming // Local Wildlife // Unique Sunsets // Mida Creek Mangrove Forest

From white sandy beaches to mangrove forests and lush gardens, our peninsula is a thriving ecosystem you share with local wildlife, bees, birds and ancient trees. Sunsets over the creek and quiet mornings by the water create a rhythm of nature that defines Temple Point.

Life is the hardest thing there is. But also the easiest as it just happens to happen all by itself. At Temple Point we are building a place that helps our guests and us to fully live life, challenging the status quo towards a life built on the concept of solar punk. And as much that means to bring technology and nature into a beautiful coexistence, it also sometimes means to let go of heavy burdens or diving deeply into why happiness lies often so close to struggle. Hence we say, we are emotion dealers rather than just hoteliers.

Experiences

Diving // Snorkeling // Kitesurfing // Paddle Boarding // Wake Boarding // Cruises // Safaris // Mountaineering // Cultural Tours

Love is three-quarters curiosity, and curiosity is the fan of the fire of knowledge. Hence, one should try all there is and love to learn about the secrets, challenges, cultures and endless adventures we are free to discover day to day in this world. With that mindset, we at Temple Point build our experiences and truly care for them to offer a deeper excitement.
