Uluwatu

A sky-high destination, glamourous, exciting and beautiful. No access to the beach, but instead perched atop a cliff, offering jaw-breaking views over the Indian Ocean.

  • Full info

    Opening in early 2018, OMNIA is in many ways unlike anything else you will find in Bali. This all-day party destination is perched atop a limestone cliff in Uluwatu, 100 meters above the Indian Ocean, and offers a beautiful setting and some really luxurious and high end lounging.

    Located close to the Uluwatu Temple, in what feels like "the middle of nowhere", OMNIA comes with a large and glittering infinity pool, swim-up bar, oversized pool beds, exclusive bungalows with private plunge pools and VIP cabanas. And most notably The Cube, a tower of shimmering silver and a visual masterpiece, lighting up the horizon after dark and 100% Instagram-worthy.

    Enjoy food and drinks from one of the several bars down by the pool, or head one level up top the contemporary (and famous) Japanese restaurant Sake no Hana. Here you can have a very tasty lunch or dinner while overlooking both the beach club below and onwards out over the ocean.

    Truly a masterpiece in design, OMNIA is ultra-chic and extraordinary all around. With great DJs and top notch service, it is close to a 'must visit' for some celeb-like daytime lounging. But it is also well worth sticking around later on and enjoy the night club vibes. Reservations are not mandatory, but recommended.

BEST TIME TO VISIT

April to November

Bali is a province of Indonesia, made up of the main island (called Bali) and a few smaller neighbouring ones. The capital is Denpasar, located on the southern part of the main island. Located approximately 8 degrees south of the equator, Bali has a fairly warm and even climate year round, with an average temperature at around 30°C (86°F). However, October to April means monsoon season, which can bring a significant amount of rainfall.

Bali is a highly popular tourist destination, and people visit from all over the world for a wide set of reasons. The climate and island coast, with both white sand beaches and dramatic cliffs, are probably to major perks. But Bali also has a beautiful enviroment towards the centre of the island, with hill tops and rice plantations. Culture, food, friendly people and great waves for surfing are other reasons to put Bali on the itinerary.
