Hotel Tugu, Bali *****

Owned by an avid collecter of Southeast Asian art, hotel Tugu, Bali was built to bring back to life the luxury and romance of Balinese and Javanese history. Set on pristine Sunset Beach, this elegant hotel features 22 luxury thatched suites and pavilions constructed in traditional Balinese style and set around a tranquil lotus pond. No two rooms are exactly the same but all offer luxurious amenities such as oversized beds, private plunge pools and spa areas. The hotel is only 15 minutes from Seminyak's hip nightlife and restaurant districts, 10 minutes from the famously breathtaking Tanah Lot as well as one of the best golf courses in South East Asia.

This luxurious hotel combines pure tropical luxury with a unique ambience, to make your stay here as perfect as possible. Feel free to curl up with a book complimented by the sound of crashing waves. A coconut fish meal wrapped in a banana leaf in the red dining area of Extravaganza restaurant certainly adds a different dimension to the typical dining experience. The hotel spa offers treatments using traditional Balinese methods and all natural ingredients.
