Seminyak & Southern Bali Luxury Holidays

For a little more low-key beach break, the golden sand beaches of Jimbaran and Sanur are hard to beat. Jimbaran sits just south of the airport, meaning it's the quickest option for a flight to hotel flop, with some of our favourite hotels perched on the golden arc bay. The southern end of the beach hosts the famous Jimbaran pop up seafood restaurants each evening, for a fresh-off-the-line mahi mahi to be enjoyed with greasy fingers, a chilled beer and plastic seating. The beach at Sanur is protected by an offshore reef, so offers calm paddle-friendly water, as well as some charming boutique hotels.

At Bali's southern tip, you'll find the Bukit Peninsula, which is home to laid-back surf spots, and some of the islands most exclusive, cliff top hotels. This is the spot to lock yourself away in a luxury villa, but perhaps venture out to explore some of the picturesque surf spots and powdery sand beaches by day. Perhaps.

Some of Bali's most beautiful (and most visited) temples are tucked away in the South, including the cliff top Uluwatu temple, and the coastal temple of Tanah Lot, which is only accessible at low tide. It's also the spot to learn to surf, kite surf, or scuba dive with Mola Mola in our summer months.
