Sleep in an Indian Ocean rainforest villa, enjoy a private pool with sea views in a sacred sanctuary

Sunrise over the Indian Ocean coral reefs, the scent of frangipani drifts through The Ritz-Carlton Rainforest Villas—on the 45-acre Uluwatu coast, blending 1.2 kilometers of private beach, century-old banyan trees, and Ubud wood carvings. Forty-eight villas half embrace the sound of waves and half hide in the rainforest, a favorite spot for celebrity wedding shoots, representing Bali’s “sacred vibe + Ritz luxury”✨. ✨Bali Lobby: A Sacred Ceremony Experience Pass through the Sanskrit ebony stone gate, where sea breeze carries the fragrance of frangipani and sandalwood; Kandyan-style fountains, stone altars under banyan trees, and coconut leaf tapestries flutter in the wind. The sea-view terrace overlooks the Indian Ocean waves, perfect for sunset shots capturing “people + sea and sky in one” with a divine filter. The concierge offers holy water blessings (jasmine spring water on the forehead), ties batik-dyed cords, and welcomes guests with ginger tea, coconut-scented cakes, and wooden lotus bookmarks, full of Bali flavor. 🏡Sea View/Rainforest Villas: Private Domains Hidden in a Secret Realm Each villa at The Ritz-Carlton Bali is a “sacred sanctuary in harmony with nature,” with details that touch the heart: • Stunning Views: Sea view villas start at 80㎡ with 3-meter floor-to-ceiling windows facing the Indian Ocean, morning mist revealing surfers; rainforest villas open to banyan trees and travelers’ bananas, with rain tapping on broad leaves.
