The view at The Trans Bali's rooftop bar, The 18th Floor - Luxury Escapes

An unbeatable location, rooftop bar, poolside ‘beach’ and all-around luxury – it doesn’t get much better than a stay at The Trans Resort Bali.

Seminyak has long been a firecracker Bali travel destination, blessed with countless cool restaurants, boutiques, local bars and – of course – that glorious golden beach. The Trans Resort Bali places you in the heart of it all, with incredible facilities that add that extra five-star sparkle to your escape, from luxurious private villas to rooftop bars and a manmade private beach beside the pool (complete with sand from Australia). Read on to discover why The Trans Resort Bali is one of our best-loved bestsellers.

1. It features an unrivalled location in the heart of Seminyak

The Trans Resort Bali takes the cake for one of the best Seminyak locations. The resort boasts an enviable position in the heart of town, surrounded by designer boutiques, remarkable restaurants and beachside bars (including the popular KU DE TA and Motel Mexicola), and is just a short walk from the famous Eat Street and Seminyak Square. But it’s not all go go go – despite being in the centre of the action, The Trans exudes tranquillity, thanks to its extensive grounds, luxurious facilities and a private stretch of sand onsite. It’s also an easy 20-minute drive from Ngurah Rai International Airport, so your escape can start sooner rather than later.

2. The rooms offer plenty of luxury (and space)

After a day exploring Seminyak’s vibrant streets, there’s no better feeling than returning to the crisp, white linen and cool marble of your private room, suite or villa. The oversized rooms and suites promise space and serenity, with outdoor balconies with jacuzzis and daybeds as standard. If you’d like to dial the luxury up a notch, opt for one of just 16 extravagant villas and private pools, hot tubs and blissful Balinese gardens will be yours to enjoy. 

3. You can enjoy drinks at one of Seminyak’s best sunset spots…

Considered Seminyak’s best-kept secret by those in the know, the 18th Rooftop Bar is a popular spot to enjoy a cocktail – and panoramic views over the surrounding neighbourhood – as the sun dips beneath the horizon. We recommend the signature Marioska, a refreshing concoction whose ingredients are the closely guarded secret of the resort manager; it’s the perfect accompaniment to the bar’s relaxed tapas menu.

4. … and find dishes to suit every craving at The Restaurant

With two lounges and The Restaurant onsite, there’s little danger of going hungry when you stay at The Trans Resort Bali. The Restaurant is prepared to satisfy your every craving, from morning to night. Bountiful buffet breakfasts, brimming with international and local Indonesian favourites, will fuel each day’s explorations, while an authentic ‘go local’ lunch served in bamboo baskets will offer up a taste of real Indonesian cuisine. When the craving for seafood mixed grill or nasi goreng strikes, an à la carte dinner is sure to cap off a memorable day. 

5. You can swim at one of Bali’s most epic manmade beaches

This is not your average resort swimming pool. At The Trans Resort Bali, it’s easy to forget you’re in a resort and believe you’ve landed on a pristine, private tropical island, thanks to the epic manmade beach that occupies the centre of the property. While away a whole day with splashy fun in the main pool or practise your stroke in the lap pool, or keep your little ones entertained while they wade in the kids’ pool. If you’re missing Australia’s beaches during your escape, you’ll be pleased to know that the beach-themed outdoor experience is made possible with pure white sand imported from Australia.

6. Trans Spa offers the perfect chance to sink into bliss

Travellers of all ages and stripes will find their bliss at The Trans Resort Bali. If you’re after some relaxing me-time, take a rose-petal bath at the Trans Spa, where a slew of rejuvenating and revitalising treatments awaits. Unlock your chakras with a yoga class, or work up a sweat at the state-of-the-art fitness centre, where personal trainers provide individual coaching and recovery comes in the form of aromatic steam rooms, dry saunas and hot and cold plunge pools.

7. Level up your escape with access to the spectacular Club Lounge

Unrivalled luxury awaits when you upgrade to the Premier Club Room, Ultimate Premier Club Room or One Bedroom Villa, with included access to the resort’s exclusive – and extravagant – Club Lounge. Swing by any time for light bites and refreshments; you’ll also enjoy daily complimentary afternoon tea and nightly canapes and cocktails throughout your stay. Beyond all the extra perks, the Club Lounge’s glass walls and cosy lounge areas make for a wonderful place to refresh after days spent exploring Seminyak’s best.
