LONELY PLANET'S OFFICIAL ITINERARY INFORMATION
Itinerary: Bali - Spoil Me
Untitled Document
Kilometre for kilometre, Bali has about the greatest density of fabulous resorts and spas anywhere. From incredible food to hedonistic pampering, you can give yourself every sensation you deserve.
Two great hotels – the flashy
Legian, and the understated
Oberoi – are just north of Kuta in Seminyak. They set the standards for the clean, tropical look that has come to be known as ‘Bali Style’.
Great places circle the Bukit Peninsula like a pearl necklace. The
Four Seasons Jimbaran Bay in
Jimbaran pushes exclusivity while the
Ritz Carlton pushes posh. Across the peninsula, the
Westin Resort and the
Conrad are fresh additions to
Nusa Dua and
Tajung Benoa. At the Conrad you can plunge off your own patio into the vast pool which encircles the hotel.
Some of the most famous places can be found in the lush lands around Ubud. Along the Ayung Valley, another
Four Seasons Resort blends effortlessly with its surrounds. The
Amandari and the
Alila Ubud head the A-list going north along the valley.
Along the east coast with its remote beaches and its views of Nusa Penida, you can be pampered at two excellent places with sweeping views of Nusa Penida: the
Alila near
Manggis and, nearby, the stunning
Amankila.
