Pandawa Cliff Estate The Pala

The Pandawa Cliff Estate is one of the most desirable locations on Bali – sitting on the southern tip of the island, it boasts unrivalled views across the Indian Ocean from the privacy of its tropical walled-garden. From the heights of the cliff, the vistas are to die for and the six-bedroom villa makes the best of the aspect with views from every angle. Its intimate dining spaces, open-air living arrangements and stunning array of on-site facilities mean there are few locations that can match The Pala for its level of luxury.

Not only is the site spectacular, the villa sits within easy reach of many of the island's most sought-after spots and guests praise the convenience of its location. Perfect golden sands in front and a wealth of other activities just a short drive away, you'll struggle to find a more perfect locale.

Set in its own idyllic surrounds atop one of the most beautiful beaches in Bali, experience the island as it should be seen from The Pala. Ease your way down windy lanes to uncover the mystical charm of the villa, and gaze down across the mesmerising sights of the sand and sea below. With its variety of local bars and cafes, a true sense of tradition remains amid this superb estate.

Whilst many come for the views, the temptations that sit within reach are also of great allure. Uluwatu – the spiritual cliff-top temple overlooking one of the world's top surfing destinations - is only a short drive away. Or perhaps the delights of Nusa Dua and Jimbaran are more to your taste. A much more refined and elegant experience than one might expect from the brasher surrounds of Seminyak, the region boasts some of the island's finest cuisine.

This shapely contemporary villa stylises its surrounds through manicured gardens and plenty of open-air living. There is a sense of opulence when you stay at The Pala, with the generously-sized main villa that presides over living pavilions and a 20m cliff-top infinity pool that seemingly flows into the ocean. With four dining areas, plenty of poolside decking and an ocean-view balé for plenty of cocktail sundowners, you will be spoilt for choice when searching for relaxation.

The grand master suite commands the best of the sea views from its imperious position, with king-sized bedding, bright bathrooms and private balcony space adding to its regal splendour. Four guest suites sit in pairs looking across the garden and towards the sea; sliding partitions offer privacy from a separate lounge or children's sleeping space. The lower floor guest suite can house king-sized or twin beds, and opens onto the garden.

The Pala is a majestic property with stunning views, perfectly captured by the panoramas from the master suite or cliff-top swimming pool. Its splendid location and intriguing sunken amphitheatre make it the ideal surrounds for wedding ceremonies or private events. It boasts a unique ambience that perfectly accommodates groups of all sizes; we highly recommend this spot for small and large gatherings alike.

With onsite facilities such as a sports centre – including tennis court, squash court and gym – and private spa, guests will be incredibly well-served during their time here. A team of experienced chefs will create the most memorable cuisine you could imagine whilst housekeeping and gardeners will charm you with their happy demeanour and attentive ways. Should you wish to explore, there are two cars on call, ready and waiting to take you into the heart of the island, but whether you will need their services is an entirely different question.
