The setting
This hotel is on the coast of Nusa Dua in southern Bali, about one kilometre from the centre of the small resort town. It’s just a two-minute walk to the sandy beach of Nusa Dua, and another short walk will take you to Tanjung Benoa. This area features wide, pedestrian-friendly streets and offers a shuttle service to the ITDC shopping centre. It is a quiet, exclusive resort area with a peaceful, green atmosphere.
What to expect
A 5-star Balinese-style resort with a swimming pool, spa and gardens running down to the beach. Kids get a playroom, playground, dedicated pool and the Gecko Kids Club. Active guests can book diving and snorkelling, hit the tennis court, table tennis or the gym, and there's a golf course close by. Free Wi-Fi and parking come as standard.
Things to do nearby
Nusa Dua Beach is just a few minutes’ walk away and features a long promenade where you can stroll along the calm sea while admiring the sunset. Tanjung Benoa Beach, located a little further inland on the peninsula, is the perfect spot for jet skiing, parasailing, or riding a “banana boat.” Nearby is also Mengiat Beach, which is a bit quieter; along its shady, tree-lined shores, you’ll find warungs offering freshly grilled fish.
Best for
It’s perfect for couples and families looking for an authentic coastal resort where they can enjoy a relaxing getaway. Thanks to an extensive range of childcare services—including a kids’ club, playgrounds, and a children’s pool—parents can spend a few hours relaxing at the spa. It’s also the perfect spot for active travellers who enjoy diving, snorkeling, tennis, or golf, as well as for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of Bali’s cities and find a more peaceful setting along the coast.
How to get to the hotel
Ngurah Rai International Airport in Denpasar is about 20 to 30 minutes by car depending on traffic, roughly 12 km up the coast. Private transfers can be arranged at booking, and metered Bluebird taxis or ride-hailing apps also cover the run. If you're heading on to Ubud or the north, hire cars and private drivers are easy to arrange through the front desk.

A week, loosely planned
Suggestions, not orders. Tour ideas to mix and match for your trip.
Arrival and toes in the sand
Upon arrival at Ngurah Rai Airport, go through customs and head to Nusa Dua on your pre-booked transfer. After checking in at the hotel and taking your time to unpack, walk along the garden path straight to Nusa Dua Beach and enjoy your first swim in the ocean. Cool off by the pool with a refreshing drink, and as dusk falls, take a stroll along the boardwalk. Enjoy dinner in a relaxed atmosphere at a “warung” restaurant right on the beach, located just a few minutes’ walk from the resort.
Slow morning by the pool
Sleep off the flight, then spend the morning stretched out by the swimming pool with a book. Order something light poolside for lunch, or stroll five minutes to a café in the ITDC complex. In the afternoon, book a Balinese massage at the spa to shake the last of the jet lag. Come evening, try grilled seafood on Mengiat Beach with your feet in the sand.
Watersports at Tanjung Benoa
This shallow-water bay is the hub of water sports in Bali. Choose an activity that suits your taste: whether it’s jet skiing, parasailing, riding a “banana boat,” or taking a glass-bottom boat tour to Turtle Island. Return to the resort, enjoy a leisurely lunch and a swim in the ocean, and then head out from the hotel beach for an afternoon snorkeling excursion. End the day with a cocktail in hand, watching the sunset paint the Indian Ocean in shades of pink.
Uluwatu clifftops and kecak
If you’d like to take a short trip south to the Uluwatu Temple, perched atop a cliff overlooking the surf, it’s a good idea to hire a driver. If you visit the temple in the late afternoon, you can stroll along the paths by the cliff, watch the monkeys, and admire the fiery Kecak dance against the backdrop of the sunset. On the way back, be sure to try some grilled fish in Jimbaran Bay, where tables are set right on the sandy beach. And then, still basking in the memories of this wonderful day—and perhaps with a bit of sand still clinging to you—drift off to sleep.
Ubud culture day trip
Early in the morning, you’ll set off with your driver toward Ubud and spend over an hour driving up the mountain road. Take a stroll through the “Wander the Sacred Monkey Forest,” wander through the arts and crafts market, and enjoy lunch at a café on the Tegalalang rice terraces. On the way back, be sure to plan a short visit to the Tirta Empul Temple, as well as a stop at a silver workshop in Cherke. Once you return to the resort, you’ll still have plenty of time to go for a swim or enjoy a relaxing dinner.
Diving, tennis and spa
Book a morning dive or snorkelling trip through the hotel; the reefs off the Nusa Dua coast are gentle and full of colour. Back at the resort, work up more of an appetite on the tennis court or with a table tennis match. Cool off in the pool, then spend the afternoon in the spa with a facial or a foot ritual. Dinner at a quiet restaurant along the beach path.
Golf and last-day shopping
Enjoy a round of golf at the nearby course overlooking the sea, or, if you prefer, spend a relaxing morning by the pool. In the afternoon, you can browse the shops at “Bali Collection” in search of souvenirs. There you’ll find beauty salons, coffee, coconut soap, and much more. When the sun isn’t quite so hot, you can take another dip at Nusa Dua Beach, and then end the day with a cozy dinner at one of the nearby restaurants.

Bali, Indonesia
FAQ
Where is Bali?
Bali is an island in Indonesia, part of the Lesser Sunda chain in Southeast Asia. It sits between Java to the west and Lombok to the east, roughly 8 degrees south of the equator in the Indian Ocean. Nusa Dua, where the hotel is, is on the southern tip of the island, about a 20 to 30-minute drive from Ngurah Rai International Airport.
Is Bali a country?
No, Bali is not an independent country. It is one of Indonesia’s 38 provinces, with its own governor and provincial capital (Denpasar). In this country, where the majority of the population is Muslim, Bali preserves its own Hindu culture. Upon arrival at Ngurah Rai International Airport, you’ll enter the country on an Indonesian visa or a visa issued upon arrival, use the Indonesian rupiah, and go through Indonesian passport control.
Where is Bali located?
Bali is in the Southeast Asian archipelago of Indonesia, directly east of Java and directly west of Lombok, from which it is separated by a narrow strait. This island, situated south of the equator in the Indian Ocean, is a small island stretching about 145 km from east to west. The hotel is in the southern part of the Bukit Peninsula, in Nusa Dua, near the main international airport.
What time is it in Bali?
Central Indonesia Time (WITA), with a time zone of UTC+8, is in effect year-round in Bali; daylight saving time is not observed. Since this time zone is 8 hours ahead of London time in the winter and 7 hours ahead during British Summer Time (BST), Bali is 7 hours ahead of the UK in August. To adjust to the time difference, you should plan accordingly for the evening of your arrival.
Is Bali safe for tourists?
Bali is widely considered a safe place for tourists: the rate of violent crime is low, and the tourist infrastructure is well-developed. Nevertheless, please take the usual precautions. In crowded areas, watch out for pickpockets, use licensed taxis or taxi-booking apps, and drive carefully if you’re not yet used to riding a scooter. In particular, Nusa Dua is a quiet and safe resort area that is very popular with families.
