A beguiling island of many faces
Discover Indonesia’s best-known island of Bali. We’ll help you enjoy the very best of Bali with an entirely bespoke itinerary of private tours, luxury accommodation and personalised experiences.
Bali is also home to some of Asia’s best resorts, where service is consistently at an outstanding level and the spas are world-class. This makes the island appealing to not only those who simply want to unwind and decompress, but also to active types who will be well aware that Bali is also one of the world’s surfing capitals. Within an hour of landing, you can be taking the drop on some of the incredible waves that hit the southern coast.
Love to party? Well, it’s no great secret that Bali’s southern towns are full of lively bars, and we can give you the low-down on the most stylish, exclusive haunts.

Bali is an island that I keep revisiting as there is always so much more to see. The scenery is spectacular and there is a lot of opportunity for being active whether you dive, raft, zip-line, cycle or even hike to the summit of an active volcano. The traditional Balinese gentle culture is prevalent on the island and especially in the east, which remains fairly untouched by tourism. For nice restaurants, bars and boutiques it’s wonderful to spend a couple of days in Seminyak. And I haven’t even started on the beaches…

Where to go

Canggu
Nestled between Tanah Lot and Seminyak on Bali‘s southern coast, Canggu is all about the laidback vibes. Its black sand beaches are popular with surfers but even if you’re not looking to ride the waves, the epic sunsets are reason enough the visit.
Discover more
Jimbaran
On the western side of the Bukit Peninsula, Jimbaran blends its working fishing village atmosphere with a collection of exclusive and tasteful hotels. Almost like a more chilled version of Seminyak, it boasts some of Bali’s most beautiful sandy beaches and calm, clear waters for swimming.
Discover more
Lovina
On the northern coast just west of the city of Singaraja, Lovina is a 12-kilometre stretch of low-key black sandy beaches and calm waters for swimming.
Discover more
Manggis
Spectacularly located between the striking Mount Agung and the serene Lombok Strait, Manggis offers a slower, more traditional stride on Bali’s eastern shores.
Discover more
Nusa Dua
Set on Bali’s south-eastern coast, 40 minutes from Denpasar airport, Nusa Dua is a private enclave where you find some of Bali’s best hotels that line white sandy beaches.
Discover more
Pemuteran & West Bali National Park
Sitting on the far north western coast near Java, Pemuteran is a quiet bay of black sand beaches, a small village and a wild backdrop of dramatic mountain scenery.
Discover more
Seminyak
Bright fabrics flutter gently in the breeze while inviting waves lap the soft grey sands of Seminyak’s beaches. This resort area on the island’s west coast just north of Kuta, is Bali’s most stylish beach locale.
Discover more
Sidemen
Located just inland from Bali’s eastern coastline, to the south of the dramatic and imposing Mount Agung, Sidemen is truly one of Bali’s hidden treasures. Blessed by a peaceful and picturesque character, defined by the likes of rolling rice fields dotted with attractive temples, Sidemen is a far cry from the more vibrant and developed Balinese coastline, providing something of a rejuvenating escape after days by the beach.
Discover more
Ubud
With lush greenery and steep rice terraces that flank the soaring banks of the Ayung River, Ubud is one of Bali‘s most scenic and relaxed destinations. It is also peppered with the island’s most important holy sites, temples and artisan workshops.
Discover more
Uluwatu
Home to a dreamy white sandy coastline and the spectacular Uluwatu Temple, this quiet southern part of Bali offers something for beach lovers and culture enthusiasts alike.
