"Set on a verdant cliffside above the Indian Ocean, The Ritz-Carlton, Bali is quite the eyeful: The resort, whose two distinct levels are connected by a soaring glass elevator, contains 313 suites and villas, six restaurants and bars, and a spectacular pool that hovers over the threshold of the Indian Ocean. You'll want to book a dinner at Bejana, for authentic Indonesian cuisine—the sambal udang, a dish of Kalimantan-style King prawns and tomato-chili relish, might nearly distract you from your view of the ocean below." - CNT Editors, Betsy Blumenthal
