It's known as the 'Island of the Gods' for its ceremonial traditions and sacred temples, but there's plenty of the divine in Bali for a different kind of worship. Bali enchants and seduces with a rich culture, natural beauty and a unique charm–sun, sand, surf, shopping and unadulterated tropical splendour, all served up with a hefty dose of luxury and indulgence. Quite the intoxicating mix for romance and relaxation!
There's an experience to suit every taste and accommodation options for all budgets, from luxe villas and spa retreats to sophisticated hotels and resorts. Little wonder Bali is a favourite honeymoon hotspot!
