Alila Seminyak, Seminyak

Contemporary Balinese style and sweeping views of the ocean combine at Alila Seminyak, creating unforgettable holidays in the lap of luxury.

Providing direct access to the sand on its lengthy beach-front, Alila Seminyak makes the most of its location in almost every aspect of the property. Floor-to-ceiling windows feature in guest rooms and communal areas to provide jaw-dropping views of the Indian Ocean. Some of the five swimming pools can be found right next to the beach-front, with sun loungers in prime position to admire the views.

Greenery in the resort, from wall-hugging plants to green roofs, connects guests with the wider natural landscape. While all of life's luxuries can be found at Alila Seminyak, the resort has a strong commitment to sustainability, with zero waste going to landfill.

Two of the hotel's restaurants make the most of spectacular beach views. Seasalt restaurant is a particular triumph, serving seafood and fusion food with carefully sourced ingredients from across Bali. The themes of organic, seasonal and authentic reign supreme here with a little local and international flair creating genuinely unique cuisine.

Nothing says 'relaxation' more than Spa Alila, with signature treatments incorporating ancient therapies and using products made from fresh local ingredients. A traditional temple housed on the grounds of Alila Seminyak, is visible from the spa, serving as an enchanting reminder of the history and traditions of Bali.

The array of activities on offer include daily yoga sessions, an extensive fitness class schedule and bicycles available to hire. A Kids Club with daily scheduled activities means each member of the family has plenty to do.
