Located on a private lane and surrounded by rice-field views, Vasanti Seminyak Resort is the perfect place for travelers seeking serenity and nature in the midst of one of Bali'€™s famed tourist spots.

Reflecting an energizing interpretation of contemporary Balinese design with subtle baroque influences, the resort'€™s ambience is fresh and vibrant, yet still manages to honor the island'€™s rich cultural heritage.

This stylish retreat is a contemporary interpretation of Bali'€™s evolving design ethos, with 121 elegant rooms and suites to satisfy the needs of modern travelers.

With wining and dining facilities, as well as a spa for personal indulgence, this retreat ensures guests enjoy their vacation and living life to the fullest away from the hustle and bustle of Seminyak.

Upon entering the lobby area, guests will have an impression of a stylish, modern and contemporary building that is still unmistakably Balinese.

Vasanti has made use of the five elements of wood, earth, metal, fire and water in its concept as a philosophical system of harmonizing with the surrounding environment.

Each room in the resort has a modern, elegant design with a touch of Indonesian batik to create a classy luxury and comfort.

Equipped with top quality mattresses, large bathrooms and balconies, every type of room is tailored to guest needs and is visually appealing.

While the Deluxe Room, Deluxe Pool View, Deluxe Lanai Room and Deluxe Pool Access ensure personal comfort and convenience, the Junior Suite redefines luxury with additional space and modern home comforts to enrich the quality of stay. An inspiring decor celebrates Bali'€™s creative heritage with a combination of smart furnishings and artistic elements.

The resort also provides four 80-square meter Vasanti Suites, which truly embody the spirit of tropical living with bespoke interior, high-end facilities and meticulous attention to detail.

There is ample space to unwind with clearly defined areas to sleep, bathe and relax. A private terrace features a pair of reclining sunbeds, as well as a large Jacuzzi concealed behind a planter box of native greenery.

In addition to good sleep, good food will surely enhance the quality of the stay. At Vasanti, guests can indulge in a breakfast buffet at Devali Restaurant with delicious Asian and international cuisine, fresh tropical fruit and vegetable salads.

Devali is an all-day restaurant and bar with an edgy decor that elevates the experience of the hotel'€™s wining and dining. Decorative hardwood structuring and elaborate stone columns are complemented by clean-line table settings in an environment that blends seamlessly into the outdoors.

The overall look is a playful take on the dynamics of hospitality design. The diner has an open-plan kitchen serving modern cuisine and classic dishes to anticipate the taste preferences of international guests.

Above Kitchen and Lounge at Vasanti Seminyak Resort adds another dimension to the property with a vibrant setting for social interaction, serving Indonesian food from the eastern reach to the western tip of the archipelago, as well as Asian cuisine.

The foyer is decorated creatively with vintage doors and overlooks the indoor flower garden. The Above Kitchen and Lounge is protected from the elements by an impressive angular roof showcasing exposed beams and bamboo detailing.

There are clusters of seating options and mood-enhancing lights to create areas of intimacy, while an open-air deck with sweeping views over the distant Indian Ocean is a stylish space to unwind over sunset drinks, high tea and listen to chill-out tunes

For those who love fun under the sun, Splash Bar invites sun lovers to beat the heat of the day with a menu of refreshing beverages and light bites to enjoy around the pool. Thirsts are quenched with a range of tropical juices, exotic cocktails and icy cold beers. A superb selection of homemade treats, including cakes and pastries, are available at the Deli and Sweets Corner.

Meanwhile, guests who love to keep the balance between personal harmony and the environment can join the morning Yoga classes.

For absolute indulgence, take a treatment at Aswangga Wellness Spa to rejuvenate mind, body and spirit. The spa offers a nurturing menu of relaxation and beauty rituals based on the traditions of Indonesia'€™s timeless healing heritage. Therapists are trained to counteract the effects of modern living and replenish depleted energy levels through the therapeutic art of touch. Natural products and essential oils are used to enhance the experience of head-to-toe indulgence.

Vasanti Seminyak Resort is a perfect and beautiful resort for those who seek serene tranquility and Balinese culture.

The resort is surrounded by beautiful, terraced rice-field views and nature to create an unforgettable experience for your vacation in Bali.
