BE STILL MY BALI HEART
Looking for affordable luxury in Bali that’s away from the hustle and bustle? Beachfront resort Hotel Nikko Bali Benoa Beach boasts a large lagoon-style pool with swim-up bar, kids’ club and spa, and is located in the enclave of Tanjung Benoa, on the south-west tip of Nusa Dua. Tanjung Benoa has plenty of restaurants, shops and outdoor activities, but has a more relaxed feel when compared to the the southern coast; it’s how Bali was meant to be. Located 30 minutes by car from the airport and 40 minutes from Kuta, Hotel Nikko Bali Benoa Beach is the ideal place to escape, unwind and enjoy peace of mind. It’s particularly friendly for families, with larger rooms, family rooms and suites and complimentary wifi throughout the resort. The 45sqm Family Room fits two adults and two kids, and the 106sqm Family Suite with ocean views has a bunk bed that fits three kids (ideal for bigger families!). For families with older children (aged 12 and up), interconnecting Deluxe rooms are available. Expect the kids to spend a lot of time in the palm-fringed lagoon-style pool while you grab a cool cocktail from the swim-up Aloha Pool Bar and laze away under the balmy Balinese sun. Cening Kids’ Club is just steps from the poolside. Kids can battle it out over board games, foosball tables and PlayStation consoles. If it all gets too much, they can take a nap on the comfortable bunk beds. The kids' club runs eight fun activities every day, including Balinese dance lessons, Indonesian language classes and origami sessions. All of the activities are supervised and most of them are free.
Hotel Nikko Bali Benoa Beach offers diverse dining options. The relaxing resort has several restaurants, each with a distinct speciality and cheerful kids’ meals. Giorgio Italian Ristorante Pizzeria is the place for an elegant dinner, Bali Luna Restaurant offers health-conscious meals, and the newly opened Nagisa serves easy and tempting Japanese bites. Make sure you visit The Spa, where professionally trained therapists will pamper you with a mix of traditional and modern treatments. We highly recommend the Family and Mum & Me packages. Feeling energetic? Hotel Nikko Bali Benoa Beach has you covered for that, too, with a 24-hour gym access, sunrise yoga classes and plenty of watersports. Hotel Nikko Bali Benoa Beach offers absolute relaxation and value for money. If you want to do Bali but don’t want the tourist traffic, this is the place for you.
