The Samaya Bali

This sumptuous resort with impeccable service is one of Seminyak's best and is perfect for couples.

In Sanskrit, 'Samaya' refers to the inner sanctum of wellbeing and this award-winning luxury resort offers just that on a tranquil stretch of Seminyak beach, blessed with stunning sunsets. The staff offer a warm welcome, and you’ll be incredibly well looked after here.

Breeze is the resort’s chic main restaurant, with a diverse international menu in a wonderful beachfront setting. There’s plenty of outdoor seating on the spacious deck, so you can enjoy an al fresco breakfast, or a romantic dinner beautifully lit by the hanging lanterns. There’s also an excellent wine list. Across the road in the Royal Courtyard area you’ll find the atmospheric Brasserie, which serves up traditional Indonesian dishes for dinner. Of course, for complete privacy there’s also the option of in-villa dining. Be sure to enjoy the complimentary traditional daily afternoon tea.

Spacious and contemporary villas each have a lap pool, 24-hour butler service and four-poster bed draped in white linen. The Pool Villas are housed in the main beachside area of the resort.
