Tucked away at the northern tip of Sanur Beach, Museum Le Mayeur is the former home of Belgian painter Adrien-Jean Le Mayeur de Merprès, who settled in Bali in 1932. This Balinese-style wooden house holds dozens of his original paintings, fine carvings, and a romantic atmosphere rarely found amid modern Sanur.
The Story of Le Mayeur and Ni Pollok
Le Mayeur fell in love with Bali's tropical light and with Ni Pollok, a young Legong dancer who became his wife and principal model. Nearly every canvas here shows Ni Pollok in the garden, on the beach, or among flowers — a record of love that lasted decades.
What to See
- Original impressionist-style paintings in Le Mayeur's warm palette
- A lotus pond and garden in the house's courtyard
- Wood carvings, statues, and antique Balinese furniture
- Authentic raised wooden house architecture
Visiting Tips
Arrive early when the light is softest and the air still cool; a visit takes about 30–45 minutes. Bring cash for tickets, dress modestly, and remove your shoes before entering the painting rooms. The museum pairs easily with a morning stroll along Sanur's beach walk.
