With the summer crowds gone, Bali has become a much more attractive proposition for travelers looking for a spot of peace and quiet. And if you like your seclusion with a serious side of luxury, then booking the Ungasan Clifftop Resort is a no-brainer. Located in one of the island’s most picturesque areas, it deserves a place at the top of your Bali bucket list. Here, Savoir Flair lists the five reasons why.
Stunning Views
Perched atop a cliff on the grassy Bukit Peninsula – the southernmost tip of Bali – and overlooking the Indian Ocean, this chic resort enjoys some of the island’s best views. A stunning 280-degree panorama of turquoise-blue waters provides a fantastic backdrop for selfies and sunset drinks – what’s not to love?
Spectacular Villas
With five luxury villas, each designed by a different architect, it’s hard to decide which one to pick. Looking for a traditional Balinese setting? Go for ‘Villa Ambar’. Craving a more contemporary stay? Then opt for ‘Jamadara’. In the mood for a colonial aesthetic reminiscent of the Hamptons? Book ‘Villa Tamarama’. Regardless of which one you end up choosing, each villa offers unparalleled views with 30-meter clifftop frontage and outdoor infinity pools – the perfect setting for lazy-day lounging.
Pro tip:Â Book an in-villa spa treatment to enjoy the view while getting pampered.
World-Class Dining
Whether you choose to dine in your villa or at the resort’s Selatan Restaurant, you’re in for a treat. The world-class menus at Ungasan were created in partnership with award-winning Australian chef James Viles and feature produce sourced from Bali’s most vibrant farms and markets. Treat yourself to a fine dinner on the restaurant’s terrace or opt for an intimate in-villa BBQ during which Ungasan’s chefs will prepare the likes of locally sourced yellowfin tuna and slow-braised beef.
An Oceanfront Beach Club
Hidden beneath the cliffs on a stunning stretch of white sandy beach, Sundays Beach Club is a true gem. Accessible from the resort via an inclinator, this is a great place for sunbathing, stand-up paddle boarding, or enjoying an açai bowl in the sunshine. Once the sun has set, you’ll find people dancing around a bonfire to the great tunes mixed by local and international DJs.
Impeccable Service
Ungasan is committed to offering exceptional service to its customers by catering to their every demand, with around-the-clock butlers, nannies, and drivers complementing the vast roster of resort amenities. This makes the prospect of travelling with children a lot less daunting – and a joy, in fact – making the resort very popular amongst families.
