Neighbourhood spotlight: Uluwatu, Bali - SilverKris

"Opened in 2001 and credited with helping to transform the area's rustic reputation, this cliffside villa complex comprises 25 accommodations built from reclaimed Javanese teak and ironwood, ranging from traditional thatched bungalows furnished with local antiques to contemporary villas with infinity saltwater pools overlooking the ocean. Guests — including high-profile surfers — can use a private staircase to access famous surf breaks, borrow surfboards tuned to local waves, and join multi-day surf retreats led by former pros to sharpen their skills." - Lane Nieset
