Enjoy Bali from your own private Villa
Many hotels in Bali have spectacular pools, but unfortunately you usually have to share them with other guests. Imagine waking up in your own private villa surrounded by the lush beauty of Bali, overlooking your own private pool, with the sun sparkling on the surface of the water. It is an experience at another level - and perfect for a honeymoon!
We believe that if you ever wish to experience a private pool villa, Bali might be the right place! Luxury high end villas are much more affordable in Bali compared to beach destinations in Europe or North America. Most private villas here are still part of a resort, so while you can experience all the privacy you need, you will still have access to hotel amenities like dining, spa treatments and fun activities. The best of both worlds by staying in a Bali hotel or resort with private pool!
Bali offers a wide range of options for private pool villas. Some feature infinity pools overlooking the jungle or ocean, while others are more secluded. Some even offer private hot tubs! We aim to help you find the best private villas in Bali. The region you choose also influences your options:
- For private jungle villas, we suggest checking the Ubud region. You can find amazing private pool villas at The Kayon Ubud
- The best ocean-view villas can be found on the cliffs of Uluwatu, but not all of them have direct beach access. The Bulgari Resort has some amazing cliffside villas and does have a spectacular private beach which can be reached by elevator.
- Beachfront Private Villas with direct beach access are rare in Bali, but can be found at some resorts in Seminyak, including the classy Oberoi. Alternatively, BASK on the island of Gili Meno offers amazing private beachfront villas.
- Looking to go off the beaten path and escape the crowds? Elevate Bali in the colder North-Bali mountain region of Munduk features spectacular villas with private hot tub overlooking green hills with the Java Sea in the distance.

Ocean-front luxury villas in spectacular AYANA beach resort
5 starSplurgeBeachfrontPrivate villasJimbaran, near UluwatuWe believe these are the best ocean-facing villas in all of Bali, as all Ayana villas have large private pools surrounded by lush gardens, from which you can watch the sun setting over the Indian Ocean. They are part of the luxury Ayana Resort in Jimbaran (between the airport and Uluwatu). This resort is famous for its spectacular bar on top of a rock in the Indian Ocean (great for couples to enoy the sunset!), as well as the stunning Kubu Beach, and countless restaurants, pool and wellness options. We had drinks for sunset at the Rock Bar and would recommend it - outside guests are welcomed if reserved in advance.

Six luxury remote villas at Munduk Cabins
4 starAffordable luxuryNature viewsMundukWe stayed here to celebrate Olivia's birthday and loved it! Munduk is a a perfect place to relax and enjoy the fresh mountain air. We did make an exception listing this place, as most cabins do not have a private pool - some of them offer a jacuzzi however, which is much better as this place is much cooler than most of Bali due to its altitude. Luxurious cabins offer breathtaking nature views over mountains and jungle all the way to the Java Sea.
At night the sky lights up and the stars are so visible here they look like a city. Don't miss out on the bonfire! With only 6 cabins, Munduk cabin is the best luxury sanctuary you'll find in central Bali. The staff is super friendly and the on-site Ulekan restaurant is known as the best restaurant in the region (welcoming outside guests too).♥Check Availability

A jungle villa on a river edge at The Kayon in Ubud
5 starNature views15m drive north of UbudEnjoy unique moments staying at the River Edge Pool Villa at the The Kayon Resort, a peaceful retreat nestled against the jungle hills of Ubud. With a calm river and lush forest surroundings, it's a very relaxing place to spend time together.
We try to book these villas often for couples using our honeymoon planning service as we think its one of the best options in Ubud, but as The Kayon only feature 5 of these villas, they are commonly sold out well in advance.
One thing we love about the Kayon resort is that they organize a daily complimentary morning walk along beautiful rice paddies. A great active way to start your day! In addition, the staff here is extremely friendly and personal. Finally, the fact that this resort has its own waterfall which you can admire while enjoying an afternoon tea from a wooden deck should be enough reason to book this place a.s.a.p. before it sells out!♥Check Availability

The staff at Oberoi is extraordinarily friendly with genuine attention to your every need and always ready to go out of their way to make sure guests have an amazing holiday.♥Check Availability
