The 2011 Romance List
Alila Hotels & Resorts - Alila Villas Soori, Bali
What shall it be today? Private infinity pool, resort pool or beach? Best ask the butler. Such are life’s pressures at Alila Villas Soori in a quiet south-west coast rice field corner of Bali, far far far from the madding crowds of Seminyak and Legian. You can exhale now. Fifteen beach pool villas and fifteen ocean pool villas mix it up with eight three bedroom pool villas and one grande dame ten bedroom villa. All villas have direct access to the beach of volcanic black sand and all incorporate breezy indoor outdoor living.
Activities in this private enclave of generous hospitality are called ‘journeys’ and are one of a kind excursions designed exclusively for you. Choose to stay within the Alila bubble or venture out into the Balinese island for some jungle love, temple tramping and mountain peaking. Expect seriously good cuisine with three dining outlets including the Izakaya Grill restaurant, skipping distance from the breaking waves. The real fun starts at the spa with heated rain shower beds and Asian inspired treatments. The good news is while all this seriously luscious down time is good for you it’s also good for the community with Alila giving back to the local region.
