Nusa Dua And Tanjung Benoa
Where to lay your head
Where to lay your head
The gated enclave of Nusa Dua’s luxury resorts is designed to keep guests in house as much as possible, all enjoying their own beachfront and most with a range of restaurants and activities. If you are after all-inclusive exclusiveness, start there, but you can still take advantage of the local beaches (perhaps not the deckchairs) without being “locked in”.
House of D16 Art Hostel is a bit of a mouthful, and also a bit of a walk (2km) to the main gated resort area of Nusa Dua, but the views and comfort of this congenial art-filled pocket-friendly hostel make it a terrific backpacker choice. Occupying a double-story block high on the hill overlooking Nusa Dua, the hostel offers four- and six-bed air-con single gender dorms with hot-water ensuite...

Like Nusa Dua, Tanjung Benoa’s upmarket resorts mostly score beachfront positions, but off-beach some excellent flashpacker and midrange digs will have you sorted when the wealthier relatives decide to get hitched in Nusa Dua and you need to stay nearby.
Set back from the road in a leafy sculpture and pond-filled tropical garden, Pondok Agung Bed and Breakfast is our top flashpacker pick in the Nusa Dua area. Here you’ll find a range of nine lovely stone, wooden and bamboo double-storey bungalows and rooms surrounding a weeny kidney-shaped swimming pool. The spotless air-con rooms are airy and charming, each unique but with a shared homely,... Read our full review of Pondok Agung Bed and Breakfast.

From the folks at Bumbu Bali who run fabulous restaurants and a cooking school (well worth visiting both while you’re here), Rumah Bali offers the same traditional Balinese hospitality and philosophy in a delightful sprawling resort. The property is unassuming from the carpark, in fact we almost didn’t go in, but as you walk back, and back, through the Balinese-style “village”... Read our full review of Rumah Bali.

For travellers with a limited budget but keen on absolute beachfront digs around the Nusa Dua / Tanjung Benoa area, Bali Reef Resort is a lovely traditional Balinese-stye resort smack on the beach at the northern end of Tanjung Benoa that may fit the bill. Edging a tree-lined path leading to the waters edge within a leafy landscaped garden, two rows of duplex brick cottages house the... Read our full review of Bali Reef Resort.

Dotted around the backstreets of Tanjung Benoa, a number of friendly guesthouses offer similar modern-styled rooms, many with swimming pools and pretty gardens and one we were impressed by is Palm Garden. Set around 150 metres back from the main road, within a walled compound, two rows of longhouse style rooms edge the beautiful palm filled garden facing a small but inviting swimming pool,...

For folk who plan to spend the entire day at the beach and need nothing more than a comfortable bed and a decent shower, Sari Rooms Bed and Breakfast is simply the cleanest and least expensive option we found in Tanjung Benoa, not to mention the extremely friendly and accommodating hosts. We must say when we first walked in we were not that impressed (other than by the friendly staff), as... Read our full review of Sari Rooms Bed and Breakfast.
