Ritz Carlton


Hotel facilities & Services

Dining Place : Influenced by Balinese design with alang-alang thatched and tiled roofs, open-air or indoor seating, The Ritz-Carlton, Bali Resort & Spa's thirteen restaurants and lounges create atmospheres and cuisines to suit every mood . Add a dash of spice to your meal at open-aired Padi serving authentic Thai cuisine, the robust accents of fine Italian cuisine at Sami Sami; freshly-caught seafood at Kisik; modern European at Dava or teppanyaki at Honzen. Or perhaps you'd prefer dinner and traditional Balinese dancing at Langit, the dinner theater.

Enjoy a tropical drink at Damar Terrace, relax with a beverage at Kubu, our secluded beach, or quench your thirst after a treatment at the Spa Café.

If a romantic dinner for two is more to your liking, let our Romantic Repasts team help you select an exotic menu, ambiance and location on Resort grounds to celebrate a special occasion.

The Spa :

Seawater is considered holy by the Balinese, who use it during rituals, to cleanse sacred temple artifacts, and to receive the ashes from cremated loved ones. Seawater is also an important ingredient in thalasso therapy, as is the optimum-level atmospheric pressure of The Ritz-Carlton, Bali Thalasso & Spa's location overlooking the Indian Ocean. With the world's largest Aquatonic® seawater therapy pool as the heart of our Spa, we bring together Asian beauty and body treatments, timeless European products, and modern technology to promote physical and psychological well-being.

Many of the ingredients in our signature body lotions and scrubs are gathered from the gardens and jungles of Indonesia, yet unique to Bali is also our use of French-based Thermes Marins and Guinot products in our facials, deep cleansing, anti-aging and firming treatments. Our spacious therapy villas and rooms, appointed in rich mahogany and soothing violet hues command expansive ocean or forest views. Peaceful resting and meditation areas overlooking the sea encourage a holistic nurturing experience.
