The resort cascades down the terraced hill at the top of the cliff, meaning that most every spot has dramatic views of the Indian Ocean...
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set along the rugged Pecatu coast, the resort sits 15 minutes from Uluwatu Temple, with shuttle service to Padang Padang Beach.
The rooms
Suites open onto private balconies with outdoor Jacuzzis overlooking the ocean, while standalone villas add dedicated pools and living pavilions.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The spa
Spa suites open onto private garden plunge pools, with treatments drawing on Indonesian spice rituals and Balinese bodywork.
At the table
Botol Biru Bar & Grill serves open-flame seafood and cocktails on an open-air terrace overlooking the breaking surf.
How it began
Built in 2012, the property was engineered into sheer limestone to mirror traditional Balinese rice terraces through stepped, modernist architecture.
