Resort

Another sprawling beachfront resort just steps from the ocean, The St Regis Bali Resort is a majestic space for a memorable Bali holiday.

In the quiet seaside town of Nusa Dua, just a short drive from the international airport, this famous resort features one of my favourite pools on the island! A lagoon style pool with direct access from many of the comfortable suites, for those who love to bask in cool waters on hot summer days, it is the ideal set up.

As well as basking in the sun on the beach and playing in the ocean, you can dip into the vast swimming pool, pamper at the spa, work up a sweat in the gym and take part in fun cultural activities.

With a huge range of restaurants, bars and cafes, you won’t need to hunt for a tasty meal, you won’t even need to leave the resort!

For a relaxed beachfront holiday, The St Regis Bali Resort is a magical place to unwind.

Capella Ubud

Resort

Luxury and camping don’t often fall into the same sentence, however Capella Ubud offers a camping experience that you have never had before – ‘glamping’ if you wish.

Hidden among the jungles of Ubud, Capella features a collection of luxury ‘tents’ with incredibly homey amenities, cosy furnishings and, of course, amazing views out to the natural surroundings. If you are looking for something a little bit different to mix up your Bali getaway, this is an idyllic luxury hotel in Bali.

With rainforest, river or valley views, there is a perfect jungle hideaway for everyone.

Only adding to the outstanding setting is the 5-star, high-class, perfect, unbeatable service. Each tent comes with its own Capella Culturist who is on hand 24 hours a day to help arrange extra services and details for your stay including restaurant reservations, excursions and spa treatments.

You will never want to leave – I won’t be!
