Frommer's Review

Balé means "bungalow" in Balinese, but the moniker is rather modest -- this is an absolutely beautiful collection of villas set on a hill overlooking the ocean. After being ushered into a high-ceilinged, open-air lobby, you'll climb a set of steps that lead to the villas, all of which are walled off for privacy. Each has its own plunge pool and a daybed in the courtyard for lounging. The interiors are elegantly simple, with large bathrooms and outdoor showers. Rivers of water flow around the property; the scent of the tropical flower alang-alang wafts throughout. While not set right on the beach, the Balé has a shuttle that whisks you to the water in 2 minutes. The resort is popular with yuppies and a fair number of gay couples as well. For adults seeking peace, an added bonus is that no children under 15 are allowed.

If the private-villa-no-children-allowed concept appeals to you but the Balé seems too expensive, try the slightly cheaper Kayumanis (tel. 361/770777), a new property nearby that features 20 private villas, though it doesn't have the view and the beach access that Balé provides.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; outdoor pool; nearby golf; fitness center; spa; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; library w/free wireless Internet access
