Mindful living meets breathtaking backdrops, awe-inspiring accommodations, and wonder-filled adventure at Amankila, a romantic cliff-side sanctuary in the historic Karangasem Regency on the east coast of Bali. The layout and forms take a cue from the nearby Ujung Water Palace. Free-standing suites tout thatched roofs and generous terraces with daybeds for lounging. Elevated walkways link guest digs to the rest of the ridiculously gorgeous retreat. It’s centerpiece? The tri-level infinity pool that cascades down towards the palm-fringed shore.
Alila Ubud
 Perched at the edge of the verdant Ayung River valley in the village of Payangan, Alila Ubud is a secluded hilltop hideout cradled by spectacular scenery. And, amazingly, it’s only 15 minutes from the island’s vibrant cultural heart. Couples can spend their days on the peaceful property—reveling in the pleasure of soothing spa rituals, enjoying organic cooking classes, and peeping Indonesian art at the on-site gallery—or take advantage of the complimentary shuttle to Ubud.](https://i2.wp.com/media.brides.com/photos/5aeb57a763fb1576fc7e53c9/master/w_767,c_limit/Alila%2520Ubud.jpg?w=760&ssl=1)

Banyan Tree Ungasan
 Drawing inspiration from local culture and idyllic environs, Banyan Tree Ungasan has a deeply rooted sense of place. Proximity to the sacred Uluwatu Temple doesn’t hurt either.

Modern Balinese-style villas are tastefully appointed with artisan-crafted accents, jetted tubs, and outdoor showers. Traditional balés invite couples to unwind with a cocktail or Bintang.](https://i1.wp.com/media.brides.com/photos/5aeb57a54e10c539bdf8694a/master/w_767,c_limit/Banyan%2520Tree%2520Ungasan.jpg?w=760&ssl=1)

COMO Uma Canggu
 Up until recently, the majority of people couldn’t find Canggu on the map. But of late, a new wave of hip hangouts is luring travelers to this low-key community on Bali’s southern coast.

AYANA Resort and Spa, BALI
 Hovering atop craggy limestone cliffs overlooking the sparkling waters of Jimbaran Bay, AYANA Resort and Spa, BALI is Instagram gold. Sunset are particularly jaw-dropping. Although, from the moment you arrive, it’s abundantly clear that there’s no wrong time to snap a pic. And we’d be remiss not to mention the world-famous [Spa On The Rocks](http://spaontherocks.ca/), a haven of harmonizing therapies utilizing the rare elements like diamond dust, jade, sea quartz, and wild-harvested pearl.](https://i0.wp.com/media.brides.com/photos/5aeb57a6b2818e7dc7498228/master/w_767,c_limit/AYANA%2520Resort%2520and%2520Spa,%2520BALI.jpg?w=760&ssl=1)

Bulgari Resort Bali

Luxury at its finest, Bulgari Resort Bali is an irresistible blend of Balinese architecture and distinctive Italian design, enhanced with soul-stirring panoramas and exceptional hospitality. Think: VIP check-in, 24-hour butler service, and a dedicated leisure concierge who can coordinate bucket-list excursions like helicopter rides over steaming volcanoes and tours of the emerald-green rice paddies. Of course, a day trip means having to leave the splendor of your sea-view villa and private plunge pool.
Hmmm … decisions, decisions.
