Andaz Bali

Andaz Bali is a five-star boutique hotel at Jl. Danau Tamblingan No. 89A in Sanur, Denpasar Selatan, on the east coast of Bali, Indonesia. It stands beside Hyatt Regency Bali and shares the same quiet beachfront stretch of Sanur, with beach access and the Sanur beach path a short walk away. Ngurah Rai International Airport is about 25 to 30 minutes by road, and the Sanur harbour, where boats leave for Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan, is a few minutes away. The hotel has 149 rooms and suites grouped around garden courtyards, an arrangement that gives it the feel of a Balinese village compound rather than a single tower. Room categories include Andaz Rooms, Andaz Suites and Courtyard Suites, with the suites offering more living space and in some cases direct garden access. Interiors draw on Balinese craft and local materials, and the property is designed to feel connected to the neighbourhood. Dining centres on several restaurants and a bar, serving Indonesian and international dishes, and breakfast is a significant part of the stay. A pool and a spa complete the main facilities, and wifi is available throughout. The service style is relaxed and informal, closer to a design-led boutique brand than a traditional formal resort, and it appeals to couples and independent travellers more than to families seeking a large kids' programme, although families are accepted. Because it sits next to a larger resort, guests can walk between the two properties and use the wider Sanur dining scene along Jl. Danau Tamblingan, which has warungs, cafes and seafood restaurants. Rates begin from about IDR 5,897,100 (about US$329) per night, placing it among the higher-priced options in Sanur. The area is calmer than Kuta, Legian or Seminyak, making it suited to visitors who prefer a slower pace, morning beach walks and easy day trips by car or boat.
