Conrad Bali sits on a golden stretch of beach on the southern coast of Bali, in Tanjung Benoa on the Nusa Dua peninsula, with the Indian Ocean on your doorstep. Rooms and villas are scattered through lush gardens and beside winding lagoon pools, and five restaurants and bars keep every evening varied. The resort suits couples seeking a romantic escape as well as families wanting space to spread out. Denpasar airport is about thirty minutes away by car, so you can be on the sand soon after landing.

Spacious Deluxe rooms look onto the garden, the pool, the lagoon or the ocean, each with a private balcony or terrace, while lagoon access rooms step straight into the water. Conrad Suites have a separate living area, and the exclusive Conrad Pool Villas add a private garden, pool and steam room. The Conrad Penthouse crowns the resort with its own rooftop infinity pool, and families can choose interconnecting rooms or the Conrad Family Suite.

The 350 metre beach offers water sports, beach games and a jogging track, with a daily calendar of group fitness. Evenings often begin with a sunset stroll along the shore. The Racquet Club has floodlit tennis courts and pickleball, with private lessons available. Children aged four to eleven can join Komang's Adventure Club each day from 10:00 to 17:00. The Conrad 1, 3 and 5 itineraries explore Nusa Dua in one, three or five hour outings, from sunrise yoga to cultural immersion.

Lagoon pools wind through the resort, surrounded by sun loungers and shade, with swim up patios for a drink in the water. Conrad Spa offers signature journeys such as Yin Yang, First Light Movement and Recover, while the Jiwa Sense programme draws on Balinese healing. SWAY sleep therapy, in a suspended cocoon hammock, is unique to the resort, and the fitness club is open around the clock.

Suku serves Indonesian and international dishes, with a fire dance on Tuesday evenings and a Kecak performance with a buffet on Saturdays. Dining here ranges from relaxed beachside lunches to special evenings under the stars. Eight Degrees South specialises in beachfront seafood, and RIN offers Japanese cuisine including poolside teppanyaki. East Lounge pours cocktails and coffee, while Azure Bar and Kiosk serves drinks and light lunches beside the lagoon pool.

Seaside Bonfire Dining sets up a five course beach dinner for two, ideal for anniversaries and honeymoons. Weddings take place at the beachfront Infinity venue, and contemporary meeting spaces host events for ten to 480 guests. A retail village with eight boutiques is a pleasant stop before the celebrations begin.
