"For a dose of sublime quiet—interrupted only by birdsong—on increasingly busy Bali, this beachfront resort with nature sanctuary vibes is a refined and luxurious stay with just 32 infinity pool villas where truly everything has been thought of and carefully considered. Grab a signature cocktail at The Writers Bar, an age-old Raffles tradition, in the open-air lobby perched at the top of the property. That's also where Chef Gaetan Biesuz’s sensational fine-dining spot Rumari offers storytelling tasting menus that artfully reimagine Southeast Asian flavors and ingredients with an 80/20 sourcing philosophy—just 20% of the food is imported while 80% is from the archipelago. Footprint wise, Raffles Spa is petite, yet a lot of healing and TLC happens within its spaces. From the virtually private beach to lush 57-acre grounds, quiet luxury is a specialty at this property, and one that, happily, most guests experience with their eyes, not iPhones." - Chris Schalkx, Kathryn Romeyn
"An intimate Jimbaran resort offering comprehensive wellness retreats that blend meditation in secluded cave settings, beach yoga, Balinese ceremonies, chakra treatments, reiki sessions and tailored bedtime rituals designed to reset body and mind in luxury surroundings." - Lisa Ritchie Lisa Ritchie A dual American and British citizen, Lisa Ritchie is a writer and editor based in New York City.

"A serene, wellness-forward oceanfront estate spread across extensive grounds with just a few private villas—each features its own pool, oversized shaded daybed and in-room yoga amenities—where personalized service includes access to a Wellbeing Butler who arranges sunrise tai chi, traditional cleansing ceremonies, reiki and bespoke local therapies. The property balances refined dining (including a bar concept that nods to a famed cocktail heritage) with genuine, friendly Balinese hospitality for a quietly luxurious stay." - Kathryn Romeyn
"Cascading down a Jimbaran Bay hilltop onto a private beach, Raffles Bali is the island's big-buck newcomer. The villas—complete with butlers and infinity pools—meld traditional Balinese touches with the brand's signature chicness (think lots of polished wood and creamy color palettes) and dining options run the gamut from farm-to-table riffs on Indonesian classics to candlelit dinners in a 'secret cave.' (And yes, the Writers Bar does serve a Bali Sling.)"
"There are certain features you can expect at any Raffles hotel; among them are personal butlers, a world-class spa, and a glamorous bar serving riffs on the Singapore Sling, a nod to the brand’s flagship location and the signature cocktail invented there. Raffles Bali is no exception — here, butlers double as private buggy drivers, the spa specializes in energy healing, and the house cocktail is the arak-based Bali Sling. This Indonesian expression of the Raffles template works beautifully, in no small part because of the resort’s stunning location on the Bukit Peninsula overlooking Jimbaran Bay — but also due to the thought and care that’s clearly gone into the hotel’s elegant design." - Tablet Hotels
