From charming bungalows tucked on quiet lanes, to beachfront stay with your own pool, these are the best villas in Sanur.
I live in Sanur, and while I may be biased, I’d say it’s totally worth spending a few nights here. But let’s be real – this coastal town isn’t known for being a glitzy, high-end area in Bali. Instead, you’ll find laid-back beachfront resorts and villas that blend modern comfort with just enough elegant touches to give you the low-key kind of luxury. And just like the neighbourhood, the very best villas in Sanur are all about value-for-money, strategic location, and charming Balinese designs and architecture. These are my top Sanur villas which I’d book, as a local living in this chilled beach town.
My Top 3 Sanur Villas:
- Best for solo travellers: The Pavilions Bali
- Best for families: Villa Seriska Sanur
- Best for couples: Kayumanis Sanur Private Villa & Spa
