"A slick, 240-room beachside complex, Alila Seminyak is where the cool kids come to play when they hit Bali. Its low-key, albeit high-luxe design—think clean lines, minimalist furniture, and a buzzy rooftop watering hole—helps it to fit right in with its surroundings. (The nearby neighborhood of Petitenget caters to a similar demographic, home to a cluster of top-line boutiques and trendy cafés). Start your day with one of the resort's daily, early-morning yoga classes or a session at the 24-hour gym, then hang back by one of the five pools until it's time to hit the seafood-driven Seasalt restaurant; don't leave without trying the grilled sand lobster, served with pickled beetroot and wasabi gel." - Betsy Blumenthal
