Le Meridien Bali Jimbaran

In the fishing village of Jimbaran on Bali’s southern coast, this slice of paradise is built around a 1,300-square-metre saltwater lagoon that meanders around the property, with ground-floor rooms opening directly onto the water. A Kids’ Club and Serenity Spa ensure everyone is looked after – from the youngest guests to those in need of an indulgent massage.

Start each morning with an international buffet at Bamboo Chic, refuel with gelato and coffee at WaLa, and let the lagoon’s swim-up bar handle the afternoons. As the sun sets, Smoqee Sky Bar pulls everything together – cocktails and tapas on the rooftop with Jimbaran Bay stretched out below.
