Bali, the "Island of Gods," continues to enchant travelers with its captivating blend of natural beauty, rich culture, and spiritual allure. A perennial favorite on global bucket lists, Bali constantly evolves its offerings to cater to discerning travelers. The latest jewel in its crown is the Bali Nusa Dua Terrace, a five-star luxury villa resort that officially opened its doors on November 10th, adding another layer of sophistication to the island’s already impressive hospitality landscape. This exclusive look will detail the newest villa resort.
Nestled strategically on a verdant hilltop, the Bali Nusa Dua Terrace commands breathtaking panoramic views of the shimmering Indian Ocean. Its prime location offers a tranquil escape while remaining conveniently close to a plethora of cultural landmarks, pristine beaches, and the Ngurah Rai International Airport. This strategic positioning ensures seamless accessibility for international guests and easy exploration of Bali’s diverse attractions.
The Bali Nusa Dua Terrace, a Marriott Vacation Club property, is meticulously designed to cater to both short-term visitors and Vacation Club owners, offering a unique blend of resort amenities and private villa living. The resort features a total of 88 luxurious villas, each exquisitely appointed and thoughtfully designed to provide an unparalleled level of comfort and indulgence.
The villas are available in a range of spacious configurations, including one-, two-, and three-bedroom options, catering to diverse travel needs and group sizes. Each villa boasts a fully equipped eat-in kitchen, allowing guests to prepare their own meals and enjoy the flexibility of self-catering. A generously sized, furnished 180-square-foot terrace provides a private outdoor space for relaxation and al fresco dining, while a private plunge pool offers a refreshing respite from the tropical heat.
For larger families or groups, the expansive three-bedroom villas offer an exceptional level of luxury and space. Spanning nearly 1,700 square feet, these villas can comfortably accommodate up to ten guests. The highlight of these villas is the inclusion of two separate terraces and four individual plunge pools, ensuring ample space for everyone to unwind and enjoy their own private sanctuary.
The interior design of the Bali Nusa Dua Terrace villas is a testament to the vibrant Balinese culture, brought to life by Genius Loci, a renowned Jakarta-based interior design firm. The design concept draws inspiration from the vivid colors and intricate patterns found in the traditional attire worn during the Galungan Celebration, a significant Balinese festival.
The villas are adorned with a harmonious blend of bright, cheerful colors and bold, expressive patterns, reflecting the festive spirit of the Galungan Celebration. The use of rich textures and opulent gold accents adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the overall design. Each villa is carefully positioned to maximize the stunning views of the surrounding lush landscape, immersing guests in the natural beauty of Bali.
As a vacation rental property, the Bali Nusa Dua Terrace does not have its own dedicated amenities. However, guests have full access to the extensive facilities and services of the adjacent five-star Renaissance Bali Nusa Dua Resort. This unique arrangement allows guests to enjoy the privacy and independence of a villa stay while benefiting from the full range of resort amenities.
The Renaissance Bali Nusa Dua Resort offers a plethora of facilities and services to cater to every need and desire. The Quan Spa provides a sanctuary of tranquility, offering a wide range of "holistic Balinese healing experiences" designed to rejuvenate the body, mind, and spirit.
Families traveling with children will appreciate the complimentary kids’ club, which provides a safe and engaging environment for younger guests to participate in a variety of fun and educational activities. The resort also features four themed swimming pools, each offering a unique aquatic experience.
A diverse selection of dining options is available at the Renaissance Bali Nusa Dua Resort. The resort boasts a stylish lobby bar, a refreshing pool bar, and a signature restaurant that showcases live cooking demonstrations, serving a delectable array of local and international cuisines for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
The resort’s culinary offerings are set to expand further with the addition of two new restaurants. Lion X will specialize in Cantonese and Szechuan cuisine, offering an authentic taste of China. Tanah Liat will operate as a pottery studio during the day and transform into a restaurant at night, serving seasonal seafood and plant-based dishes. In early 2023, an Indonesian restaurant showcasing the region’s diverse culinary heritage will join the collection, providing guests with an even wider range of dining experiences.
Lani Kane-Hanan, chief development and product officer at Marriott Vacations Worldwide, emphasizes the appeal of vacation rentals for travelers seeking flexibility and independence. "When travelers are looking for more flexibility and independence in how to spend their vacation, renting a Marriott Vacation Club property is a great option," she states. While the Bali Nusa Dua Terrace was initially designed for Vacation Club Owners, the nightly rates for renters offer exceptional value, considering the spacious accommodations, private pools, and access to five-star resort amenities.
The Bali Nusa Dua Terrace offers a compelling combination of luxury, privacy, and value. The nightly rates for one-bedroom villas start at $279, two-bedroom villas at $399, and three-bedroom villas at $595. These rates represent an attractive proposition for travelers seeking a premium vacation experience in Bali, combining the spaciousness and independence of a private villa with the convenience and amenities of a five-star resort.
The Bali Nusa Dua Terrace represents a new chapter in Bali’s luxury accommodation offerings. It seamlessly blends the privacy and space of a villa with the amenities and services of a world-class resort, providing guests with an unforgettable vacation experience. Whether you’re a Marriott Vacation Club member or simply seeking a luxurious escape in Bali, the Bali Nusa Dua Terrace is poised to become a sought-after destination for discerning travelers.
