Taman Sari Bali Resort

Top choice in North Bali


Off a small lane, traditional-style rooms are set in gorgeous bungalows that feature intricate carvings and traditional artwork inside and out – some are extra roomy and have views of the bay; a nearby compound holds large and lavish villas. Book ahead for beachside dinners. The resort is located on a long stretch of quiet beach, and is part of a reef restoration project.
