Bali’s best-kept secret, the undeniably luxurious Menjangan Resort offers a relaxed gateway to the natural treasures of the West Bali National Park.

Menjangan lies in a secluded corner of the park, a beautiful yet little-visited wilderness home to sambar deer, macaques and the rare Bali starling. With a private beach at its feet, a stay here is a chance to recharge in idyllic natural surroundings. There is excellent trekking, cycling and horseback riding to be had, whilst nearby Menjangan Island boasts some of Indonesia’s best diving. You can even kayak across the shimmering waters of Bajul Bay, seeking out secret sandy beaches.

Between excursions, drop by the waterside spa for a treatment, or enjoy a lazy afternoon splash in the gorgeous turquoise pool. Accommodation varies from sleek Joglo-style villas just steps from the waves to Monsoon suites nestled in the heart of the forest. All are beautifully designed with traditional roofing and minimalist furniture. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide superb views of the surroundings. Before retreating to their luxurious personal sanctuary, guests are treated to sunset cocktails and delicious Indonesian cuisine up in the treetops.
