As well as tropical beaches and top hotels, your memories will be shaped as much by the Balinese countryside. You'll see emerald rice paddies one minute, immense volcanoes the next. Bali is a spiritual place where daily life embraces ceremony and ritual, temples and stone gods. And Balinese craftsmen are amazing, so take an extra suitcase.

Western & Oriental says
Bali offers a fantastic combination of romance, exotic rejuvenation and cultural discovery. Whether you are looking for a spa holiday, an eco-adventure, a romantic escape or a cultural tour of the region, we will tailor make your perfect holiday on this captivating Indonesian island.
Our top choice for the perfect retreat in a jaw-dropping location is The Samaya Ubud. It is close enough to explore Ubud, but far enough away to feel as if you are delightfully secluded in your own little slice of paradise.
Spa junkies should head for the Uma Ubud or COMO Shambhala. Both offer sublime spa treatments and are located in the heart of the jungle, ideal for a bit of pampered escapism. Combine a stay in Ubud with a another spa sensation in the north of Bali – the Spa Village Resort Tembok Bali.
If a boutique hotel is more your style, we recommend The Amala in Seminyak or The Bale, peacefully located on the hills overlooking Nusa Dua. Die-hard romantics will love the Banyan Tree Ungasan.
The beaches in Bali are always a big draw – the luxurious St Regis Bali is located on a sublime beach in Nusa Dua, close to Jimbaran Bay. Across on the neighbouring island of Lombok, the Oberoi Lombok is perhaps the most sublime of Bali’s top-end beach retreats.
