Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.

The rooms
Balinese compound villas feature private plunge pools, walled garden courtyards, and open-air living spaces facing the sea.
The pools and gym

A cliff-edge infinity pool meets the ocean horizon, flanked by a petal-strewn soaking tub and a thatched gym.
The spa
Open-air thatched bales sit along the limestone cliffs, where treatment beds look straight across the Indian Ocean.
At the table
Semi-cantilevered clifftop tables look out over the ocean, and casual beachfront pavilions serve lunch right on the sand.
