The Bulgari Resort is located in one of the most exclusive destinations in the world, a veritable emblem of the tropical exoticism of the Orient, combining the breathtaking beauty of unspoiled nature with a sophisticated contemporary design born from the encounter between traditional Balinese forms and high Italian style. The quality of the services along with the views of the Indian Ocean offered by its magnificent position 150 meters over the sea are the perfect introduction to the second luxury property from Bulgari Hotels & Resorts.

Once the hunting grounds of the Balinese royal family, the Bukit peninsula in southern Bali is now home to the Bulgari Resort, perched on a promontory more than 150 meters above sea level. The complex is surrounded by walls of bukit stone, a white coral excavated locally, and offers unrivaled views of the Indian Ocean. Nearby are the village of Pecatu and the stunning site of the Pura Luhur Uluwatu Temple. Jimbaran Bay and the airport are about 20 km to the north, while Kuta, one of the island’s main tourist destinations, is just 40 minutes by car.

A full range of excellent services makes for a comfortable stay while also offering a number of activities for exploring the island and its environs. Day excursions to the nearby islands, helicopter flights over the volcano, holistic activities, visits to the local markets with a personal shopper: all coordinated to run smoothly by the Leisure Concierge, who takes care of each guest’s activities down to the smallest details. A team of butlers, who provide a discreet “invisible” service is also on hand to anticipate guests’ every desire.

The white sand beach between the cliff and the water’s edge is inaccessible to the general public from both ground and sea, as it is protected by a coral reef. The only access is from the Resort’s inclined elevator that takes guests to and from the beach as well as to the Beach Club. The absence of man-made development is often taken as an invitation by schools of dolphins to frolic in this stretch of sea, visible to guests from the ocean view villas and from the beach.

A luxurious treatment administered by a team of four therapists, including deep massage with exotic oils and herbs, and the placement of warm volcanic stones on the chakras, the body’s seven energy centers, providing total relaxation and a soothing anti-stress effect. Warm stones used in combination with aromatic oils to rehydrate the skin: the Spa’s menu is designed to offer a series of complete treatments that integrate Asian and European approaches: the ayurvedic Balinese ritual, facial treatments, body wraps and massages, all at the ocean’s edge.

The Bulgari Resort in Bali becomes a special location for exclusive wedding ceremonies distinguished by Bulgari style. Four types of ceremonies are available: The Water Wedding, The Beach Wedding, The Gazebo Wedding and The Pavilion Wedding. Each includes flower arrangements by a famous floral designer, champagne for the toast and an elegant case for the marriage certificate. A wedding planner tends to every detail to make the experience perfect and unforgettable.

Il Ristorante

Situated next to a water feature ornamental lake, Il Ristorante features an open-air bale style structure and pays homage to traditional Italian cuisine in an elegantly suggestive atmosphere suffused with soft light. Open in the evening only, with seating for 36, Il Ristorante brings creative reinterpretations of classic dishes of the Italian tradition to the table, where quality ingredients imported from Italy are combined perfectly with local organic produce. The wine list features an excellent selection of the most prized Italian wines.

Sangkar Restaurant

With its extraordinary position at the edge of a cliff and its elegant yet informal atmosphere, distinguished by a magnificently illuminated ceiling and traditional woven lamps, the Sangkar Restaurant offers a menu of international specialties, creatively combining typical Indonesian dishes with contemporary culinary techniques. Throughout the day, guests can enjoy dishes such as tamarind chicken breast or bamboo shoot and vegetable curry with turmeric-scented rice.

 La Spiaggia

A cozy and intimate restaurant and bar where guests will enjoy fresh grilled seafood or the renowned Herbojito cocktail, while benefiting from the cool and nice sea-breeze as well as the magnificent views over the Indian Ocean. Located under the cliff, over the stretch of white sand beach of the Bulgari Resort, La Spiaggia is immersed into unspoiled nature. Open only for lunch, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., it is only accessible through an inclined elevator that also reaches the Beach Club.

The Bar

Sophisticated and comfortable, Il Bar opens into a terrace that overlooks a stretch of the island’s spectacular cliffs, offering enchanting views of the ocean and the Balinese sunset. The curved bar counter in black resin is modeled on that of the Bulgari Hotel bar in Milan, while its main element is a massive stone, sculpted entirely by the forces of nature. The menu offers a refined selection of cocktails, quality wines, canapés and snacks, all in keeping with the Italian tradition of the aperitivo.
