We recently redeemed our 2 free nights (courtesy of DBS Altitude card) at Alila Villas Soori in Bali. It is a perfect getaway, and an amazingly relaxing, tranquil & delightful experience. Far from the intensity of Seminyak or crowdedness in Nusa Dua.
Alila Villas Soori is located along the southwest coast of Bali in the Tabanan regency and an hours drive from the Ngurah Rai International Airport. You drive through miles of picturesque padi fields, rice terraces before arriving at the resort with an impressive view of the ocean.
The resort has around 46 ocean view, pool view and terrace view 1 bedroom villas, including a 5 -bedroom villa and a 10 bedroom villa, which will be perfect for a family getaway or an intimate cozy party.

Lush & Beautiful Beachfront villa
We stayed in a one bedroom beachfront villa. The bedroom opens up into a large living area (large enough for a 3 seater sofa and study area) with a full ocean front view. The villa pool is right at the doorstep of the living room so you can dip in if you wish.
At the side of the living room is an ocean view patio with sofas, allowing you to have evening drinks and conversations late into the evening. You get a sense of being close to Mother Nature. Throughout the day, you hear the roar of the oceans as the waves beat onto the beach uncessantly. The black volanic sand beach reminds you of the volanic activity in the past.

Dining options
There are limited dining options - it is highly unlikely you will head outside of the resort for your meals since you are so far away. The hotel serves free afternoon tea and cakes in the reading room and has 2 dining restaurants, that serves both Western and Indonesian cuisine. The food is decent but not exactly cheap. Get ready to spend a bit. Mains cost on average IDR 200-300,000. Our first night's dinner cost IDR 1.2 million, and we only had 2 manis, 1 starter and a couple of juices.
All said and done, it is still a very nice resort to seek refuge and recuperate from the intensity and busyness of a city state like Singapore.
