Bali in a Nutshell

A beachfront property that exhales luxury, St. Regis Bali Resort is a perfect match for those who expect nothing less than an exotic private villa by the beach in Nusa Dua area. Knowing that all the sea breeze will open anyone's appetite, the hotel has several dining venues to choose from, catering to every taste. For a romantic dinner, we can't think of a better option other than indulging on an alfresco meal at Kayuputi Restaurant. The crown jewel tough has to be the spectacular beach, reflected by the hotel through the Nyegara Gunung philosophy, where everything flows in perfect harmony from the mountain to the sea.

Embark on a sensorial video experience, courtesy of Capella Ubud, Bali, ranked as the best hotel in the world according to Travel + Leisure's The World's Best Awards 2020. Often regarded as the spiritual capital of Bali, Ubud is a magical place, a chance to reconnect with our inner selves and nature. The hotel and its untiring staff flawlessly accomplish the fine balance between being encapsulated in a vibrant jungle and all the comfort and pleasures associated with a luxury resort. Rightly so, this video captures the rich sounds one can experience while staying in Capella Ubud, Bali, from the rushing waters of River Wos to the winds that sweep across the rice fields.

Located in Bali's southern tip, hanging between the sea and the sky, Alila Villas Uluwatu is the island's ultimate retreat.

Perched on an impressive cliff at Bali's southern peninsula of Uluwatu, one could only expect dramatic ocean views from one of the island's finest hotels: Anantara Uluwatu Bali Resort. Either if you are looking for epic surf breaks, signature spa treatments or simply unwinding by the most gorgeous cliffside pool, you are in for a memorable stay.

The only trouble for those staying at Alila Seminyak is having to decide between relaxing by a pristine beach or the inviting beachfront pools available at this luxury address.

A world-class beachfront hotel, The Oberoi Beach Resort, Bali is within an arm's reach from the the dynamic Seminyak region, better known for its multiple restaurants, designer shops and galleries. Apart from offering tradicional thatched accommodation, the hotel has its own natural amphitheatre, allowing for delighful displays of local dances.

A beachfront, 5-star luxury hotel in Bali featuring supreme ocean views from its clifftop position - this would probably be a fair description of what to expect from The Apurva Kempinski Bali. Be it as it may, we dare to say that in this case, the open-air resembling theatre hotel's end result is much more than the sum of its parts: most rooms have their own private plunge pools, on-sight restaurants deliver on the promise of an exquisite culinary journey and the hotel's spa indulging treatments provide the ultimate key for relaxation.

Located in the eastern section of Bali, with glorious views of Mount Agung, Alila Manggis is the perfect place to disconnect from everyday life.

This three-deck, 46-metre-long Indonesian beauty, has been sailing across warm ocean waters since 2012. The selected few guests that make it to this ship (only five suites available for a maximum of 10 people) are in for a lifetime adventure: days are spent between spectacular dives, island hopping, relaxing at private beaches, enjoying the finest onboard meals and spa treatments. One thing is for sure: the 14 crew members at Alila Purnama will make their mission to fulfil every guest's wish.

A perfect match between luxury and Bali's spiritual essence, Alila Ubud wins guest over with its jaw-dropping pool, lush surroundings and warm hospitality.

Consistently ranked as one of Bali's finest hotels, The Legian Bali comes as a natural choice for those staying in Seminyak. Enjoying a beachfront location, the hotel features 67 sea-facing suites plus The Beach House (a stunning three-bedroom villa suited for larger parties). We are particularly fond of The Legian's custom Vespas, an ideal way to explore the lively surroundings.

An escape to REVĪVŌ Wellness Resort encapsulates the promise of taking its guests to a whole new state of mind. Remotely located in Nusa Dua and away from the tourist crowds, the secluded resort sets the bar high when it comes to wellness: for instance, the 3-day immersive programs, carefully designed by multiple specialists in subjects ranging from aerial yoga to crystal healing, are an antidote to the stress associated with modern-day life.

Hemmed by jungle and lulled by the lap of the Indian Ocean, the upscale Belmond Jimbaram Puri, perched on perhaps Bali's best beach, is rich in island spirit. The impressive cottages and villas incorporate local materials like bamboo, teak and alang-alang thatching. Set right on the beach, the hotel's infinity pool is made from Javanese stone that shimmers emerald in the sunlight. Real beauty, genuine kindness and deep peace abound.
