The 29 Best Luxury Villas In Bali

The Layar Designer Villas & Spa

The best luxury villas are always iconic. More is needed to deliver great service and stunning ocean views. That’s what Bali does best. They need to look the part too.

The Layar’s 23 villas (all with private pools and private tropical gardens) have a signature slope to their roofs that makes them stand out.

You can have meals served in your villa here or dine in their Settimo Cielo restaurant, which uses all local, natural ingredients to create Italian masterpieces in the kitchen.

Ametis Villas

We love the service aspect of staying at the Ametis Villas. From the moment you book, you will be assigned a butler for the whole stay.

It’s their job to anticipate your needs and respond to them. The best luxury villas in Bali excel at customer service, but the Ametis goes the extra mile.

We love the Ruby Private Spa, which is shared between the 14 villas here and offers one of the best pampering sessions on the island.

The private terraces around each villa make the perfect place for sunbathing in total bliss.

Four Seasons Resort Jimbaran Bay

Sure, this resort has other forms of luxury accommodation, but they also have some of the best luxury villas in Bali.

Each villa has been designed with authentic, traditional architecture in mind and they have glorious thatched roofs.

We like that each villa has its own enclosed courtyard space to maximize privacy indoors and outdoors.

The huge sliding doors that lead into the rooms can be opened to best use Bali’s natural light.

Villa Kayajiwa

If you want your luxury villas to be ultra-modern and even have a Cubist influence, look no further than Villa Kayajiwa.

This villa has a private pool and it’s not a small swimming pool, it’s a 25-meter-long lap pool!

Its sleek blue waters provide a lovely contrast to the colour scheme of the villa itself.

Your dream vacation is assured by the attentive staff, who will ensure that your time in this spacious living space will be utter bliss.

COMO Uma Ubud

This hillside sanctuary offers a range of the best luxury villas in Bali. COMO is considered to be one of the best resorts on the island and rightly so.

The design of the villa community here is meant to evoke that of a traditional Balinese village; each villa has a private plunge pool that is just a treat to jump into.

Suppose you’re on honeymoon or want to impress that special someone with sublime luxury, awesome outdoor dining options and sunset cocktails. This could be your perfect tropical escape.

Beachfront Villa The Cloud, Tabanan

If you’d like your luxury villas in Bali to look futuristic enough to have come from a major motion picture about aliens, check out the Beachfront Villa The Cloud.

These dome-like shapes are the kind of thing that sets an Instagram feed on fire!

They all have kitchens, private pools, bathrooms, freestanding bathtubs and more!

This villa is a very short stroll from Pasut Beach and you can swap the pool for the Indian Ocean any time of the day.

Where Is It? Tibubiu, Kerambitan, Tabanan Regency, Bali, Indonesia

Beachfront Villa Keong

The Kunja Villas & Spa

The Kunja is a family-friendly space that has plenty of choices of bedrooms and bed setups.

We like that they provide children with toys, a media room, a well-equipped kitchen, etc.

You can also enjoy spa treatments in your villa and they have an in-room dining service that brings delicious creations from the kitchens to your bed!

This is a fully-serviced environment and if you want to bring your family to Seminyak Beach, we can’t think of many better environments to put them in.

Where Is It? Jl. Lebak Sari No.8, Kerobokan – Bali, Kerobokan Kelod, Kuta Utara, Badung Regency, Bali 80361, Indonesia

Mandapa, A Ritz-Carlton Reserve

As you’d expect from the Ritz-Carlton, the best luxury villas in Bali are swanky enough once they’ve been given the Ritz treatment.

Here, you’ll find outdoor dining areas, wonderfully warm ambient lighting, rain showers, and private terraces are a standard.

You can choose if the pool is a private plunge pool or lap pool and your dedicated butler is on hand 24 hours a day to ensure you never have to lift a finger that you don’t need to.

We love that the design also comments on Ubud’s magnificent heritage.

Now, you must decide whether you want a rainforest or a river view.

Seminyak Noku Beach House

Five-bedroom villa, need to be bigger? Why not go with 6 bedrooms at the Noku Beach House? This Seminyak beach villa is incredible.

You have not one rooftop terrace but two terraces, each with a wonderful ocean view. If you want pools, you get two of those too!

They provide a butler and a housekeeping staff if you need them.

They can also ensure you get a babysitter who will look after your little ones as you want them to be looked after.

Noku Beach House is the perfect villa if you want a gourmet chef, a personal butler and a bigger staff that can cater to a large family who wants to be within a stone’s throw of the beach.

The best luxury villas in Bali are similar to this, particularly for large groups.

Alila Villas Uluwatu

This Balinese-themed resort has some of the most magnificent views of any villa complex in Bali.

That’s because it sits on top of a cliff facing down over the Indian Ocean.

Each of their private villas has a private pool, a huge living area and an open-air pavilion for al fresco dining.

Of course, this luxury villa also has a butler service to ensure their guests are looked after like royalty.

With a blend of modern architecture and traditional Balinese, this luxury villa is an Instagram delight.

We love the thatched roofs and the stone dragons flushing the hot tub. And indoors, you see plenty more reflections of Balinese heritage.

All rooms have ensuite bathrooms and a private chef is available on request. This is a tropical oasis for the most refined tastes.

If you want spacious living in a beautiful setting in a striking building, this might be the luxury villa you’ve been looking for. Even the swimming pool is a work of art here.

Villa Massilia Bali

With only three sensational villas at this luxury Bali villa complex, you only need to decide which one you want to stay in.

They each have a private swimming pool and unique architectural touches. For example, the Design Villa has a lovely high ceiling and works on a very “open plan” ethos, ensuring all the main living spaces are visible to each other.

In contrast, the Luxury Villa has a living room that sinks into the floor and a gorgeous couch that makes up the home’s centrepiece.

We like the touches of industrial chic throughout the home that aim to set it apart from the competition.

Where Is It? Jl. Sari Dewi Temuku Gang IV No.8, Seminyak, Kec. Kuta, Kabupaten Badung, Bali 80361, Indonesia

Villa Conti

This five-bedroom villa has six bathrooms! But that’s not what we love most about this luxury Bali villa.

Our passion for this place comes from the unique blend of Indonesian, Chinese and International architecture that creates a truly unforgettable visual experience.

The swimming pool is covered and private and the villa sleeps up to 12 people.

Check out the artwork and antiques throughout the living space, they’re awesome!

If you want designer chic, you can go right with the villas at the Bulgari Resort.

Each villa has an incredible 1,300 square meters of floor space inside and its own infinity pool, cinema, and private spa treatment room! Who hasn’t wanted an infinity pool of their own?

The spacious living room has a meditation pergola and a private bar area!

And despite the huge space available, only two-bedroom villas are aimed at smaller family groups!

Where Is It? Banjar Dinas Kangin Jalan Goa Lempeh Jalan Raya Uluwatu, Kabupaten Badung, Bali 80364, Indonesia

Villa Pondok Wahyu Sedana

This villa has a private infinity pool that sits atop the garden area and gazes out over the Indian Ocean.

We love to take a dip in the pool and then move on to a long soak in their outdoor spa tub as the sun sets and bathes the world in beautiful red and orange light.

The blackout curtains ensure that no light gets into your room when you’re trying to get the perfect night’s sleep and that’s a great touch.

They are also happy to accommodate special requests, so if you want your viewing deck packed with extra loungers? It’s not going to be a problem.

Six Senses is one of the finest places on the island to destress and revel in the best things in life.

Villa Vajra

Villa Vajra is all about small groups and families. They have two villas on site, one with 3 bedrooms and the other with 2.

We love the open glass fronts on the rooms that allow light to percolate to every corner of your living space when you want it to.

The waterfall feature over the swimming pool is a nice touch, and its noise makes it super easy to sleep after a dip.

The local rice fields look spectacular from the upper floors of these villas at sunset too.

Villa Vedas

One glance at Villa Vedas and we were completely sold on this luxury villa in Bali.

The setting is so beautiful, with direct beach access and a wonderful private terraced area by the pool.

Indoors, the central staircase will require a space of honour in your Instagram feed.

Most of all, though, we love the lighting at this villa, particularly during the evenings when it’s almost like there’s a soft glow to everything and everyone.

One of the villas even has its own private yoga studio! It doesn’t get much more swanky than that.

Wanakasa @ Como Shambala

This villa is far away from the sandy bay beach environment of many of the luxury villas in Bali.

Instead, it’s near the banks of the Ayung River (Bali’s longest river) and the sound of the water flowing is so peaceful.

Oh and did we mention that this villa is a treehouse design? Wake up and look out the window into the jungle canopy before dipping in that infinity pool.

Where Is It? Banjar Begawan, Desa, Melinggih Kelod, Kec. Payangan, Kabupaten Gianyar, Bali 80571, Indonesia

Villa Tantangan

If you’ve ever dreamed about going off-grid, Villa Tantangan’s the place to do it.

They generate their power using minimalist eco-friendly technology to keep energy consumption minimal.

If you want a sustainable approach to your luxurious time in Bali, look no further, you’ve found it.

It even has a bar housed in an elegant pavilion near the pool!

Grand Cliff Nusa Dua

There’s nothing quite like sitting on top of a cliff and waiting for your chef to put the finishing touches to the sucking pig that he just barbecued for you.

That’s how it is at the Grand Cliff. And if that needed to be more, they also have a games room, media room, a karaoke room, and more!

We want our next holiday to be at the Grand Cliff, it’s gorgeous.

FAQs

How Much Is It To Rent A Villa In Bali?

It depends on what kind of villa you want to rent, where you want to rent it, what season you’re coming in and how long you want to rent for.

An ordinary 1-bedroom villa in a decent but not peak location might cost as little as 1,900,000 IDR a month.

But there’s no cap on how much you can spend renting a villa in Bali; certainly, none of the villas on the list above will be anywhere near as cheap as 1,900,000 IDR for a month.

If you want luxury villas in Bali, you must pay luxury prices for them.

Are Private Villas In Bali Safe?

Nowhere on Earth is 100% safe, but Balinese villas tend to be reasonably secure and though you should lock your doors and windows at night, you’re unlikely to have any issues in the luxury villas above.

Most of these villa complexes will have a security team that reports to the villa manager to ensure the safety of their guests.

We know that there have been rare reports of people staying in villas coming home to intruders, but they are not the norm and staying in a villa in Bali is no riskier than staying in a house in most parts of the developed world.

Will A Luxury Villa Come With Its Own Private Pool?

It depends. Most villas have pool access, but not all have a pool deck and pool.

If you want a private rather than a shared pool with other villas, you should look closely at the available facilities before booking.

If you use Bali Res Centre to book your villa, please emphasize that you want a private pool during the booking process. Their helpful staff will ensure they find you a property that meets your needs.

Final Thoughts On The 29 Best Luxury Villa Options In Bali

If you like what you’ve seen and want to book a luxury villa in Bali, we recommend booking through our friends at the Bali Res Centre.
