Bali is a diverse destination loved for its gracious people, timeless traditions, rich artistic culture, lush tropical environments, sun-drenched beaches, mountains, temples and so much more. Just when you think you’ve discovered the final piece of this fascinating “Island of the Gods,” you turn a corner only to be delighted by something new. 

At Alila Villas Uluwatu, you’ll experience a tranquil clifftop retreat on the island’s southern coast, overlooking the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean, blue skies and Bali’s brilliant sunsets. All of the resort’s villas come with a private pool and offer an oasis of space and privacy with personalized butler service. The resort is located just a stone’s throw from the renowned Uluwatu Temple, where Bali’s hypnotic kecak fire dance is performed nightly at sunset. It’s also only a short drive from Jimbaran Bay, a stretch of beach famously dotted with seafood restaurants

From beach-hopping to cycling through the rural countryside or exploring the indigenous Bali lifestyle, enrich your stay with bespoke journeys crafted to provide a deeper connection with the destination and deliver unforgettable moments. Plus, Poe Travel clients will enjoy some fabulous extra amenities

Choose Your Villa 

Ranging from 3,000 square feet to 32,000 square feet, the resort’s pool villas are all designed to be havens of private space, incredible comfort, and views. Gorgeous interiors blend clean lines and contemporary style with accents of Bali. An open-concept design embraces the outdoors while guaranteeing undisturbed privacy

We are happy to provide further details on any of the several different types of villa on offer here at Alila, but here’s a quick run-through to help you narrow down your choice: 

  • One-Bedroom Pool Villa – 1 King or 2 Twin beds, indoor/outdoor shower and bath, 3,000-square feet, 8.8-meter private pool, garden & ocean view, up to 3 adults

Butler Service Custom to You  

One concept that we love that really sets Alila apart in our opinions is their pre-arrival preference menu coupled with their choice of attentiveness level for their private butler. Not everyone wants a butler with them all the time, and others will want them ready for any whim, so it makes so much sense to offer you the choice.

Alila Villas Uluwatu offers you the ultimate luxury—a truly personalized stay tailored to your preferences. Prior to your arrival, you’ll receive an online preference menu where you can choose your favorite pillows, music, reading, and minibar options. You’ll also be able to choose the attentiveness level of your Villa Host (butler): Private, Discreet, or Indulgent. There’s also a secret fourth option, which is Environmentally Conscious!  

  • Private – Your villa will only be entered by Villa Host upon your request. 

  • Discreet – Your Villa Host will maintain your villa at an agreed time period of the day. 

  • Indulgent – Your Villa Host will attend closely to your every comfort throughout the day. 

  • Environmentally Conscious – Discreet-level service with a mindful effort made to save energy, water, and waste. 

Dining, Drinking, & Relaxation 

Alila Villas Uluwatu will indulge you in memorable dining and bar experiences. The Warung presents wholesome traditional Indonesian and Balinese fare. Indoor and outdoor dining is provided in a welcoming yet sophisticated space, enabling a laidback experience with the choice of communal tables or private tables for two dotted around the restaurant. 

Cire offers panoramic ocean views and a casual outdoor setting that sets the mood to gather. A tantalizing menu of gourmet comfort food, created with only the best seasonal produce, is sourced as locally as possible. Dishes range from classic Asian specialties and sharing-style plates to international dishes from around the globe.  

The Sunset Cabana Bar offers a multisensory drinking experience. It is perched over the cliff edge with a majestic ocean view, and the sound of the waves crashing below combined with the Uluwatu sunset provide the perfect relaxing setting for an imaginatively crafted cocktail

Speaking of relaxation, the Spa Alila at Alila Villas Uluwatu offers unique and customized spa experiences along with a range of exercise, yoga, and meditation classes for guests seeking balanced well-being. For peace and relaxation on a whole other level, the Cliff Edge Spa Cabana perched on the side of the Uluwatu cliff is the perfect spa hideaway for two.
