The Legian Beach Bali is a memorable hotel in Seminyak, mainly because of its first-class facilities and service. The water is just a minute’s walk away. It also has a very well maintained garden. There are two pools (with whirlpool) and a children’s pool; there is also a spa, a gym, a tennis court, and a squash court. Naturally, the beach is one of the highlights. The water is a little rough and perfect for surfing. You can move away a bit (go to a neighboring hotel’s beach), if you want calmer waters. If you’re into diving and snorkeling, tell the staff and excursions can be arranged.

Everyday, your breakfast will be delivered to your villa. You can request a massage in-villa; do request a flower bath, too. You’ll truly love the villas. They may not be cheap at $375-$750 per night, but they are worth every penny.
