The property itself was designed to reflect the iconic terraced rice fields of Bali making way for each villa’s lovely views of the Indian Ocean below.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Tucked into the gated enclave of Nusa Dua, quiet white-sand beaches replace the dense traffic of Bali's western coast.
The rooms
Marble-clad suites open through floor-to-ceiling glass to expansive terraces and whirlpool baths overlooking manicured gardens or the Indian Ocean.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Colossal stone sculptures of Balinese women line the beachfront infinity pool, looking straight out over the Indian Ocean.
The spa and gym
Private treatment suites offer sound therapies with singing bowls, beside a garden-facing fitness center lined with cardio equipment.
Restaurant
The Cafe
Live cooking stations prepare international dishes beneath birdcage chandeliers, with terrace tables set along the water.
Arriving here is nothing short of cinematic, with unfathomably vast grounds stretching out over rolling hills that fall into a dazzlingly blue Indian Ocean.
At the table
Soleil serves Mediterranean fare along the oceanfront, and the Cannelé patisserie displays towers of fresh macarons.
How it began

Spanning a 74-acre beachfront estate, the property was unveiled in 2012 to bring grand-scale hospitality to the quiet Sawangan coastline.
