In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Set right on Kayu Aya Beach, the resort sits steps from bustling beach clubs and Seminyak Square along the lively southwest coast.
The rooms
Thatched stone pavilions feature carved teak furnishings and sunken marble baths, while walled compound villas add private courtyards and swimming pools.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Carved stone spouts feed the 33-meter beachfront pool, shaded by traditional fringed parasols beside the surf.
The spa & gym
At the table
Thatched dining pavilions look out over lotus ponds, and sunset cocktails are poured beachfront at open-air Kayu Bar.
How it began
Architect Peter Muller pioneered Bali's luxury pavilion vernacular here in the 1970s, transforming an exclusive private club into Seminyak's original beach retreat.
