The Alila Villas Uluwatu provide a quiet paradise to enjoy the beauty of nature and modern architecture. The infinity pool on top of the cliff is just one of the impressive highlights of this resort. The minimalistic architecture is based on dark wood, white walls and the intense green of tropical plants. The open architecture of the entrance area offers an unique panoramic view overlooking the Indian Ocean. The design follows an environmentally sustainable framework with Balinese accents out of wood, water, lava stone, bamboo, and rattan. Located on a clifftop plateau along the Southern coast on Bukit Peninsula, the resort is only 30 minutes from the airport away.

While you find different international dishes in one restaurant, you find authentic Indonesian dishes in the The Warung. This covers Megibung, a traditional Balinese dining experience. People share a meal together off one plate. Be careful with the sambal selection. Some of them are really dangerous.

Special hotel recommendation

Moreover considering the fact that most people stay in their private villa with pool, the infinity pool is less crowded. Even less people you will find on the private beach area because you need to walk more than 200 stairs down to the beach. The resort was built on a cliff but in the Balinese heat most people avoid to move too much. For this reason the private dream beach is a high recommendation to everyone who wants to experience real Robinson Crusoe feeling. The beach is sandy and there are some huge stones to give you shadow. Moreover you should take a pair of watershoes with you because there are stones, plants and crabs in the clear blue shallow water.

The location on clifftop is a very scenic setting for weddings, honeymoon or very romantic holidays. You shouldn’t come here alone. It’s just the perfect surrounding for couples. On top of all the culinary pleasure, the dream beach and privacy you can find here great spa retreatments or courses in serial yoga above the cliff edge. For sure, this is one of those locations you will never forget in live. Besides the Alila Villas Uluwatu, Alila has also four other resorts in Bali: Alila Seminyak, Alila Manggis, Alila Ubud, and Alila Villas Soori.

The Legian Seminyak

@Rebecca Schmitt

Between beach and main building guests find two iconic infinity pools that reflect the sunset in the early evening. The Indian Ocean is simply too rough even for the strongest swimmers and it’s a great advantage to have a cristal-blue pool. Later in the evening the pool gets surrounded by fire bowls to color the fine dining experience in warm lights.

Special hotel recommendation

A gread highlight at The Legian is the fine dining experience on the poolside terrace. Starting the evening with a sunset cocktail, you will be in love with the shimmering waves of the Indian Ocean and its soft reflections in the infinity pool. The cuisine of The Legian surprises you with an harmonic mixture of French and Southeast Asian flavors based on ingredients from the garden, sea and farm. Also for breakfast and lunch, it’s a great place to eat. The morning menu provides you a world tour from French toast and egg Benedict to Indonesian Nasi Goreng and tropical fruits.

The Legian Seminyak

@Rebecca Schmitt

The location on the famous Legian Beach is central and in very short walking distance to the Kudeta Beachclub. Nevertheless it’s a more private and relaxed place because you don’t have to listen to the club sounds all day. Twice a day you get traditional gamelan music, that gives you a very Balinese feeling but it’s never too intense. The Legian is a great getaway for honeymoon, couples in love or also families – as long as the children are old enough not to look for special children programs.

The W Resort Seminyak

@Rebecca Schmitt

Special hotel recommendation

What we really want to highlight is the cosmopolitan atmosphere. You will find great parties during the weekend, trendsetters from all over the world, and a dedicated offer of culinary experiences: Start your day with breakfast at “Starfish Bloo”, get your heat on at the grill restaurant “Fire”, refresh yourself at “Ice Bar” and enjoy a sunset cocktail at “Woobar”. Explore also “W Lounge”, “1Below”, “Cellar”, and “Chill Bar”.

The W Resort Seminyak

@Rebecca Schmitt

The location on the famous Legian Beach is very central and highlighted by the perfect sandy beach. Although the Resort is the best place for passionated music daydreamers or nocturnals by nature, it wouldn’t be the right choice for people looking for 100% quietness and pure nature. There’s simply too much going on in the W – including great parties during the weekend.
