Hotel Indigo

With a choice of stylish hotel suites and private pool villas, the hotel is full of cultural references translated with a modern design. The spacious open-air entrance leads to a beautiful lobby that is fashioned after a Balinese Banjar hall, with floor-to-ceiling bookcases filled with quirky knick-knacks and -decorated with hanging lamps inspired by ceremonial containers. The views lead down the resort, over pools and gardens to the beach.

A series of courtyards planted with towering palms leads to the spacious rooms, fitted with smart TVs, Bose sound systems, coffee machines and large beautiful beds piled high with pillows dressed in crisp white cotton. In the private pool villas, which are located at the rear of the property, a butler ensures that all you need, from restaurant reservations to extra towels, is a quick call away.

With living areas, a pool deck, a well-stocked mini bar, a desk area (work was the last thing on my mind!) and a grand bathroom finished with marble, the villas are beautifully designed and filled with everything the modern traveller needs, from charging ports to Nespresso machines.

An urban-style coffee shop is a great addition to resort living. located next to the spacious restaurant and the Tree Bar, this is the hub of the resort for most guests. A series of pools that runs through the center of the property, leading to the beach, is where you’ll find The Cave bar serving up chilled coconuts, fresh juices, and towering cocktails to guests around the pool.
