Luxury cliff-top resort opens in Bali

The Ritz-Carlton, Bali has opened this week, marking the brand’s return to the idyllic island.

Located in Sawangan, Nusa Dua, The Ritz-Carlton is set on 12.7 hectares of expansive beachfront and cliff-top land. With 313 guestrooms, including 34 cliff top and ocean view villas, the luxury resort offers a dramatic location along the coastline of Nusa Dua’s southern tip. The 180-degree, unobstructed views of the Indian Ocean are an undeniable highlight, with a 70-metre high glass elevator providing guests with access to the beach.

Embracing local symbolism, a central theme to the property is the Tree of Life, known to locals as Kalpaturu. Representing strength, wisdom and beauty, it is prevalent throughout the resort and ground. Décor is Anyaman style, coupled with design influences from local craftsmen and the surrounding landscape, creating an exceptional environment that is as elegant as it is rustic.

Led by a highly skilled culinary team, The Ritz-Carlton, Bali features six restaurants and lounges, offering an authentic gastronomic journey, combining the finest local ingredients with international influences. Bejana, the hotel’s Indonesian restaurant, will offer the Culinary Cave – a unique epicurean learning experience with programs personally tailored to suit guests. The Beach Grill, set along the shore, offers seafood and grill specialities alongside views of the Indian Ocean. Raku, The Ritz-Carlton Lounge & Bar, Senses, and Breezes Tapas Lounge complete the innovative food and beverage portfolio.

The Ritz-Carlton, Bali embodies the brand’s dedication to service, whilst combining the spirituality of Indo-Balinese hospitality, set to attract affluent travellers. The luxury resort reinforces the brand’s commitment to providing authentic and harmonious experiences with indigenous design elements.

The resort also offers Ritz Kids, housed in a dedicated building with play and study spaces, The Ritz-Carlton Club Level with private pool and sun deck and The Ritz-Carlton Spa, offering a Balinese wellness experience in one of 14 treatment rooms which incorporate indoor and outdoor spaces.
