Bulgari Hotels and Resorts Bali

Resting 160 metres above the Indian Ocean at Bali's southernmost point is the island's Bulgari Resort, incorporating a spectacular cliff edge spa. For over a century, Bulgari has been setting the pace for Italian style in jewellery and luxury goods, including watches, handbags, fragrances, accessories and, most recently, hotels and resorts.Bulgari opened its first hotel in Milan in 2004, and Bali was privileged to be chosen as the site of its second property.

The glamorous villa retreat and spa comprises 59 ocean-view villas, including 3 two-bedroom villas and the 1,300-square-metre Bulgari Villa. Each villa offers a plunge pool and patio with secluded tropical garden, high technology features and an extensive range of amenities. Personal butlers anticipate guest needs to offer the utmost luxury experience, while the resort also boasts sophisticated facilities.

Throughout the resort and spa, all of these ingredients and inherent traditions have been fused with the chic modernity of the Italians. The hotel has been built and furnished using hand-cut volcanic stones, rich exotic woods and refined fabrics. Natural lava and palimanan stone is used for the garden and interior walls.

A collection of exquisite Balinese antiques and exotic art pieces, including more than 90 examples, adorns the entire resort, while furniture and decorative details, such as stemware, flatware, ceramics and woven fabrics, were designed and produced in Bali by a team of local artists and designers in collaboration with the resort's architects, Antonio Citterio and Partners.
