Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) is the gateway to the Island of the Gods, Indonesia's most visited and spiritually rich destination. Hotels in Bali offer access to Seminyak's beach clubs, Ubud's rice terraces and temples, the cliffside Uluwatu Temple, and the island's extraordinary Hindu culture.
Our Picks — Bali
Ubud — Keliki
Tented luxury in the jungle canopy. Bill Bensley designed each tent as a theatrical set piece — clawfoot bathtubs, campaign furniture, and private plunge pools perched above the Wos River. The most imaginative hotel in Southeast Asia.
Nusa Dua
A beachfront mega-resort that somehow doesn't feel corporate. The infinity pool is one of Asia's largest, the beach is pristine, and the all-day dining has more variety than most food courts. Families will never want to leave.
Seminyak — Petitenget
The hotel arm of Bali's most famous beach club. Desso Potato Head is an architectural marvel — Kengo Kuma's wooden lattice rising from a working rice paddy. Suites are spacious and design-forward, and the beach club access is the real draw.
Uluwatu — Pecatu
Clifftop minimalism by WOHA architects. Cantilevered villas with private pools overlook the Indian Ocean from 100 metres up. The three-tier infinity pool defies gravity, and the spa treatments happen in open-air pavilions with ocean wind.
Ubud — Sayan
John and Cynthia Hardy's eco-compound of reclaimed Javanese bridal houses. No TVs, bamboo everything, a natural swimming pool, and an ethos that puts sustainability first without sacrificing comfort. The most soulful hotel in Bali.
Canggu — Batu Bolong
A brutalist-tropical hotel that single-handedly defined Canggu's aesthetic. Raw concrete meets tropical hardwoods, the pool is a gathering place for the surf-creative crowd, and the restaurant serves some of Bali's best modern Australian food.
