This Is the Best Modern Beachfront Hotel in Bali’s Coolest Oceanside Village - Hotels Above Par - Boutique Hotels & Travel
"A five-star beachfront resort perched on the Echo Beach surf break in Canggu, offering panoramic ocean views from a sheltered spot that feels removed from the neighborhood’s livelier areas. Styled by Koichiro Ikebuchi and Paola Navone, the property channels a sophisticated boutique–Miami aesthetic with an all-white marble lobby and upscale, modern-coastal interiors. Its 119 guestrooms and suites—from snug one-bedroom rooms to spacious two-bedroom residences with living lounges and kitchenettes—line an expansive aqua-tiled lagoon pool overlooking a palm-fringed lido and the shore; interiors are bright and airy, featuring light bamboo furnishings, neutral marble floors, and ocean-blue accents. Dining at the on-site beach club emphasizes expat-inspired breakfast options (notably creamy scrambled Eggs Your Way, chicken sausage, smoked salmon, and a standout dairy-free coconut yogurt topped with fresh fruit), alongside pizzas, seafood pastas, a celebrated beachside ribeye steak dinner, and indulgent brunch items such as a caviar tartlet and ricotta hotcakes. Cocktail hour leans chic surf-shack with hanging swing chairs and signature drinks like the Jalapiña (reposado tequila, pineapple, mint, jalapeño shrub, and lemon with a spicy-sweet-salt rim). Wellness is a core focus via the Shambhala Spa—offering Asian-inspired therapies including a Traditional Balinese Body Wrap and Taksu massage—plus one of the area’s largest fitness centers with daily yoga and Pilates classes. Amenities include beachfront access, two outdoor pools, spa and wellness facilities, extensive fitness offerings, and room service; rates start around $216/night."
