Perched on the southern tip of the island, The Ritz-Carlton, Bali sprawls across a dramatic cliff and drops all the way down to its private white-sand beach. It’s a more secluded spot, and the attentive service is deeply immersed in warm Balinese hospitality. The romantic views-for-days setting combined with amenities like a seaside chapel, beachfront infinity pool and lavish spa make the Ritz-Carlton a haven for couples. But it’s an eminently family-friendly hotel, boasting a kids club filled with toys and kiddie classes and daily workshops that explore Balinese culture. While most may prefer the oceanfront accommodations, the fifth-level Sky Villas offer panoramas of the whole cliff and ocean. Aside from the breathtaking view, you will be surrounded by total privacy — not to mention you’ll have your own cliffside pool.
