Le Grande Uluwatu - Right at the very end of a cobblestone road flanked by tropical plants and the manicured lawns of the New Kuta Golf Course, a wooden structure marks the entrance to this upscale resort. The atmosphere is quiet and serene, and the lush grounds and low open lobby building make for a good first impression. The reception area itself has a few traditional Balinese elements, including lots of stone and wood accents, but decor is stylish and contemporary throughout, with minimalist furniture, bright throw pillows on dark couches, and clean lines. Rooms are housed in several four-story buildings with wooden verandas and white facades, and the grounds around them have a mix of manicured grass lawns and wilder tropical areas with bamboo trees, frangipani, and palm trees. The narrow space between buildings is taken up by the pool, which gets shade several hours a day. The atmosphere here is serene and relaxing, but some guests may find it too quiet. #createwithtrip #staycation
