Where to Stay in Bali
There are many touristy pockets in Bali. Some are more crowded than others but offering the most convenience and excellent locations. But when it comes to choosing private pool hotels in Bali, there are mainly three areas to choose from: Uluwatu, Nusa Dua, and Ubud. That said, other areas like Kuta or Seminyak, Canggu, and Sanur are also worth considering. Read more about these areas on our top pick of best hotels in Bali.
Let’s start with Uluwatu. This part of Bali offers a unique blend of white sandy beaches and cliffs. Some Bali hotels with private pool in this area are located up on the edge of the cliff. This means they don’t have direct access to the beach, but in turn, they have breathtaking views of the ocean. Imagine marveling that from the comfort of your own pool!
Nusa Dua is probably the most luxurious area of Bali. Here you’ll find luxurious hotels, including those providing private pools. But for those who seek tranquility, Ubud is the one to be. Instead of beaches, you’ll be surrounded by rice fields and lush jungle. So refreshing! With that in mind, let’s take a look at our best Bali hotels with private pool.
Chapung Sebali
11
We start our list of hotels in Bali with private pool with one of the best hotels in Ubud. It’s not often for hotels in a tranquil area of Bali is known for its pool bar. And yet, Chapung Sebali excels with its Jungle Fish bar right next to the on-site infinity pool. Open to the public, this is not the place to be if you seek a tranquil moment. But if that’s not an issue, go ahead and enjoy a glass of cocktail overlooking the valley.
We personally love its location. The hotel is nestled in a traditional Balinese village up on the hillside, surrounded by the lush forest. Instead of rooms, the hotel offers individual villas where every guest can have full privacy. Some villas come with a private pool. Each offers different pool designs and views, such as one next to the on-site garden, overlooking the lush jungle, or a completely fenced one for more privacy.
Even though it’s not so close to Ubud Center and its attraction, you won’t get bored as there are plenty of things you can do on-site. From rice-field trekking to horse-riding, to yoga classes, there’s something for everyone.
A massage service is available by request. Moms and Dads, you’ll be happy to know that you’ll enjoy every stroke of Balinese massage with some peace of mind with the hotel’s babysitting service.
