“A trip to the spectacular Viceroy Bali reveals the magic and wonder behind one of Asia’s most lavish and mysterious island getaways.”
If you’re looking to get lost in nature and to forget the frills of big city life, Viceroy Bali above Bali’s Valley of the Kings makes for the perfect getaway. Being located on the overgrown and secluded jungles makes for the stuff of fantasy holidays and scrap book memories. Of course, five-star hospitality is always at hand – an award-winning fine dining CasCades restaurant; a butler service; a well-stocked wine cellar; a star spa and breathtaking infinity pool. But in the end, what enchants you is the way Viceroy Bali magnifies the beauty of solitude amidst its lavish-yet- rustic jungle nooks. You can get lost here either in nature, or in your own imagination. Being surrounded by so much flora, and open to views of jungle and river not far from your private pool or dining table, Viceroy Bali evokes a powerful sense of child-like wonder for everything you encounter in the jungle. You’d expect that any place like that might appeal only to romantic honeymooners and A-list celebrities, but you’d be wrong. From the way luxury, good old-fashioned fun and a warm and perceptive service are woven together here, there’s every chance that guests of any description will find it hard to leave this jungle paradise.
Viceroy Bali is the perfect destination for those who look for absolute stillness and tranquility but don’t want to resign to luxury in keeping with the amazing natural environment. With mesmerizing views of the serene valley below, and once a favored retreat of royals, the resort offers five categories of expansive yet intimate villas, each with its own heated pool; attentive discreet service and bespoke facilities. All the 25 luxurious villas are nestled next to the river facing jungles. In all of them comfort and traditional Balinese elements flair go hand in hand to provide with an unforgettable stay.
