Akilea Villas  

Perched on the Bukit in Pecatu, south Bali, this Balinese-style villa retreat sits minutes from Uluwatu Temple and the Uluwatu Cliffs. It’s also close to New Kuta Golf and Nyang Nyang Beach, with easy drives to Kuta, Nusa Dua, Jimbaran and Pandawa Beaches — a family-friendly base for exploring the southern coast.

A boutique collection of villas set into lush, landscaped grounds. Air-conditioned rooms and villa units offer private balconies or patios, fireplaces, LED TVs and kitchenettes with refrigerators and microwaves. Bathrooms feature separate showers and deep soaking tubs. The design leans into classic Balinese style for a cozy, classy island vibe.

Multiple outdoor swimming-pools are tucked into the gardens, plus an aquapark-style pool area and space to BBQ. Relax at the on-site spa and massage room, keep fit in the gym or join diving and bike rental activities. There’s karaoke, a library, terrace and garden views — perfect for waking up to sea-breeze mornings.

Complimentary wireless internet access throughout the property keeps you connected. Free self-parking is available onsite and an airport shuttle can be arranged for a surcharge.

An on-site restaurant serves local Balinese and regional flavors, with a barbecue area for casual meals. Room service is available during limited hours to keep things easy and relaxed.
