With a prime address just a stone’s throw from Bingin Beach, The Young Villas is one of my all-time favourites. Each villa comes with its own tropical garden, private swimming pool and of course, those Insta-famous interiors. You can choose to stay in the one- two- or three-bedroom villas, or bring the whole crew and rent out the four-bedroom show-stopper. I love that it feels like my own home here, with cosy sunken lounges, fully-equipped kitchens and utmost privacy. And psst – The Young Villas also has a sister property in Canggu!

2. Stone Villas Uluwatu
Refined, stone-clad villas in Pecatu with private pools and a peaceful setting.
Stone Villas Uluwatu feels sophisticated without being over the top. Hidden in Pecatu’s rugged landscape, I love how these villas blend modern minimalism with warm Balinese textures. Think natural stone, soft lighting and open-plan spaces that let the breeze roll through.
Most villas come with private pools wrapped in greenery, so if your idea of a laidback holiday involves an easy dip after sunset, you’re in the right place. Inside, it’s all clean lines and calming tones, with handcrafted details and natural materials that make the space feel grounded and relaxed.
Location-wise, you’re close to Uluwatu’s cliffs and surf breaks, but far enough from the crowds to actually switch off. A solid option if you want something stylish without the resort feel.

Lago Villas sits right in the heart of Bingin – one of Uluwatu’s most relaxed surf neighbourhoods. The design is clean and coastal, with open spaces, pale timber and soft neutrals that match the pace of the area.
Some villas come with full private pools, while others have plunge pools or sunny terraces for morning coffee or sunset drinks. It’s simple, well-designed, and easy to settle into. The best part? You’re just a short stroll from Bingin Beach for surf, swims and café hopping. Comfortable, and exactly where you want to be.

4. Bellana Villas by LeyLines
Spacious two-bedroom villas in Balangan with private pools, full service and a sense of calm.
If you’re after space and a genuinely homely feel, Bellana Villas is a solid choice. It’s a collection of private two-bedroom villas that stand tall just minutes from Balangan Beach. And once you step inside, they instantly feel generous and oh-so liveable. Think high ceilings, natural light pouring in, and an open-plan kitchen and dining area that’s gorgeous and functional.
Each villa is designed with a clean, modern finish, but it’s the attention to detail that I love: Bengkirai hardwood, premium surfaces, and fully enclosed, air-conditioned interiors that stay cool all day (a big win in the Bali heat). The layout flows straight out to a large private pool, making it easy to settle in for a few days… (or weeks!).
Service-wise, it’s all taken care of. Daily housekeeping, a responsive on-site team, plus extras like private chefs, in-villa massages and curated Bali experiences if you want them. And while it already feels like a peaceful hideaway, there’s more on the way, because Bellana sits within a new lifestyle precinct in Balangan, with a restaurant launch on the horizon.

A converted Boeing 737 on the cliffs of Nyang Nyang, with a private pool and full butler service.
If you’re after something truly one of a kind, Private Jet Villa is unlike anything else in Uluwatu (or Bali, for that matter). It’s a decommissioned Boeing 737 turned into a luxury villa, perched 150 metres above Nyang Nyang Beach.
There’s a glass-front infinity pool facing the ocean, a lounge set into the wing, and interiors that nod to its aviation past (cockpit details included). It’s fully serviced too, with a butler team ready to organise everything from in-villa dining to helicopter arrivals. It’s not subtle, but that’s the point.

Clifftop villas above Suluban with ocean views, yoga spaces and serious surf energy.
Uluwatu is known for its world-class surf breaks and clifftop views, and this villa fully embraces that spirit. Set above Suluban Beach, Uluwatu Surf Villas is built using reclaimed teak and ironwood, giving them a natural, slightly rustic feel that matches the cliffs and waves below.
Each villa is different, but all come with sweeping ocean views. Some have private pools, while others open onto shared lawns and communal spaces designed for post-surf lounging or yoga sessions. Make sure to stop by Mana Uluwatu, the in-house restaurant known for fresh seafood with bold flavours and some of the best sunset views in Bali.

Casa Sula is a bohemian villa, just minutes from Bingin’s beautiful beach, chic restaurants and boutiques. Outside this humble yet chic casa is a whitewashed horizon with a patio and dining table at the centre, beside the aquamarine private pool. Inside, you’ll find a semi-open living and dining room, a fully equipped kitchen and two elegant en-suite bedrooms. For extra peace and quiet, nab the third bedroom, which is located in its own standalone casa.

8. Jellyfish Villas
Luxe tropical hideaway with private pools, footsteps from Impossibles Beach.
Jellyfish Villas in Bingin is where you can lounge by your private pool, meander to the onsite Banana Lounge restaurant for your morning coffee, or stay in bed all day with the help of the e-butler service. Stay in one of the one-bedroom pool villas, or bring your friends and go big with the two-bedroom abode.
I love the natural materials inside each villa – from white stone to bamboo, topped off with luxe bathroom amenities, contemporary furnishings, fluffy towels and top-quality linens.
And the best bit? Everything is on your doorstep. The main entrance to Impossibles Beach is footsteps away, and all the delicious food, fab cocktails and poolside BBQ vibes of Banana Lounge are right next door.

Price: From IDR 3,100,000++ per night.

9. Origin Uluwatu
Modern villa resort with private pools and a quiet Pecatu location.
Origin Uluwatu strikes that sweet spot between contemporary design and easy tropical living. I like how the villas feel private without being overly secluded, tucked within a leafy compound that keeps everything calm and breezy. Open-plan living spaces flow naturally into garden and pool areas, so it’s easy to settle into that slow Uluwatu rhythm.
Options range from one to three bedrooms, making it flexible for couples, families or groups. Some villas are fully private, while others share larger communal areas. It’s peaceful, well-designed and close to Dreamland, Padang Padang and Uluwatu Temple – a solid all-rounder for exploring the Bukit.
Best for: Couples and families planning longer stays in a quiet yet central spot.
How many bedrooms: 1 to 3 bedrooms.
Price: From IDR 1,600,000++ per night.
Address: Jl. Ancak Sari, Pecatu.
10. Slim Summer House
A chic design-led stay with private wellness facilities.
Slim Summer House feels like a little Mediterranean escape in the middle of Uluwatu’s surf scene. The design is clean and sun-soaked, with breezy spaces that make it easy to slip straight into holiday mode. It’s intimate, stylish and perfectly positioned if you want to stay close to Bingin’s cafes and beach.
One of the highlights? Slim Summer House has Aperol Spritz on tap, which honestly says everything you need to know about the vibe here. Even better, they also have a sauna and ice bath that are fully private when booking the 4-bedroom residence, so you can wind down at your own pace.
Best for: Couples or small groups looking for a stylish Bingin stay with thoughtful lifestyle touches.
How many bedrooms: 1, 2, 4 & 8 bedrooms.
Price: From IDR 2,300,000++ per night.
Address: Jl. Pantai Bingin, Pecatu.
11. The Luxe Bali
Clifftop villas above Padang Padang with ocean views and high-end finishes.
The Luxe Bali sits just above Padang Padang Beach, pairing a prime location with polished design details. I like how the villas balance modern Balinese elements like marble and teak with open spaces that beautifully frame sweeping views of the ocean.
Honestly, planning your itinerary feels almost optional here because the villa already has everything you need. Between the private pools, a cinema room (my personal favourite), and in-villa dining whenever you feel like staying in, it’s very easy to spend the entire day without leaving. But if you do feel like exploring, Padang Padang Beach is just a short walk away, making this a great balance of comfort and convenience.
Best for: Couples and groups who want clifftop views with easy beach access.
How many bedrooms: 1 to 4 bedrooms.
Price: From IDR 31,100,000++ per night.
Address: Jl. Labuansait, Pecatu.
12. Villa Ambar at The Ungasan Clifftop Resort
Large luxury villas with infinity pools, private butlers and access to a secluded beach club.
The Ungasan Clifftop Resort is home to many beautiful villas, each with its own personality, but Villa Ambar completely stole my heart. Made for larger groups or families, this five-bedroom stay blends traditional open-plan Balinese design with generous indoor-outdoor spaces. I especially love the expansive lawn and clifftop infinity pool, best enjoyed at sunset with a drink in hand (which is included in the stay).
Staying here also means enjoying the full Ungasan experience, from daily breakfast and private butler service to priority access at Sundays Beach Club just below. A great pick if you’re looking for a classic clifftop villa.
Best for: Families and group stays with full-service luxury.
How many bedrooms: 5 bedrooms (also available in 3 or 4 bedroom configurations).
Price: From IDR 13,450,000++ per night.
Address: Jl. Pantai Selatan Gau, Ungasan.
13. Uluwatu Estate
Cliffside luxury mansion with ocean views, private chef, spa and world-class amenities.
Uluwatu Estate is an entire mansion with plenty of space, perched high up on the clifftops above Uluwatu’s famous Nyang Nyang Beach. Fringed by lush tropical gardens and an infinity pool with panoramic views of the glittering ocean, the open-plan living areas pay homage to its surroundings.
As Coco Chanel said: “Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury”. So the eclectic interiors and signature handcrafted bath sets make you feel instantly at home, while upmarket amenities and six-star service add a touch of exclusivity. Think state-of-the-art technology like Netflix, Apple TV and video games. There’s even a private chef who’ll whip up your meals, as well as a spa and a fitness centre too.
Best for: Large groups looking for a luxury, resort-like stay.
How many bedrooms: 8 and 9 bedrooms.

Address: Jl Batu Nunggul, Pecatu, Uluwatu.
14. Melali Bingin
Boutique retreat with homely charm, lush gardens and a personalised breakfast worth waking up for.
Melali Bingin might be small in size, but it’s big on warmth. With just two suites and a private pool villa, it feels personal from the moment you check in. The team greeted me by name, remembered my coffee order, and somehow always appeared with a coconut at exactly the right time.
It’s tucked down a leafy lane, so it stays quiet, yet you can walk to Bingin in minutes. The design is classic and tropical, with palm-fringed gardens and an inviting pool that catches the afternoon light. I booked three nights here and ended up asking to extend, because it’s that easy to settle in. And trust me – you’ll want to stay for Melali’s breakfast spread – it’s that good!
Best for: Boutique stay that feels like home with personalised services.
How many bedrooms: 1 and 3 bedrooms.
Price: From IDR 3,200,000++ per night.

Peaceful Balinese-style villas with private pools and convenient location.
There’s nothing quite like having your very own private villa to call home. And when it comes to Canang Villas Bingin? You can add in your very own private pool, lounging areas, Balinese-inspired interiors and a prime address in the heart of Bingin. There are three different one-bedroom villas to choose from: Villa Jepun and Villa Sandat, or Villa Cempaka, which comes with sweeping views across Bingin’s emerald horizon.

Address: Jl Buana Sari, Gg. Melali, Pecatu, Uluwatu.
16. Yume Villas
Handcrafted tropical villas near Bingin’s best cafes, beaches and boutiques.
Breezy and beautiful, Yume Villas in Bingin is a boutique collection of tropical homes. These stylish villas are hidden away in a peaceful laneway, and decorated with handcrafted furnishings, local art and artisanal homewares. I easily spent days here lounging in the open-air living area, and sun-soaking on my private pool deck after my morning surf. But with Bingin’s best restaurants, spas, bars and boutiques just minutes from the doorstep, I’d spare time to go exploring, too!
Best for: Couples and small groups who want to stay within walking distance to Bingin’s hotspots.

Oceanfront paradise and dream wedding venue with direct beach access.
Just like its name (“surga” meaning “heaven”), a stay at The Surga Villa Estate is simply heavenly. This luxurious estate is home to two spacious villas: the six-bedroom Villa Surga One and the seven-bedroom Villa Surga Two, each filled with six-star amenities and Balinese touches, and overlooks the ocean beyond the private infinity pool. You’ll even have direct beach access from the estate, so you can stroll down to the sand in the late-afternoon to catch the sunset.
Best for: Large groups and wedding parties in a luxury resort-style oceanfront mansion.
How many bedrooms: 6, 7 and 13 bedrooms.
Price: From IDR 55,000,000++ per night.
Address: Jl Pura Masuka, Ungasan.
18. Bandido Bali
Eco-chic bamboo villas surrounded by gardens, steps from Bingin’s golden sands.
Think bamboo houses are only found in North Bali? Think again, because Bandido Bali is home to not just one, but five bamboo villas, all just footsteps away from Bingin Beach. This boutique villa resort is inspired by Bali’s rich culture and natural landscapes, topped off by warm Balinese hospitality and utmost seclusion. My favourite villa has to be La Pepe, with its lush gardens, fruit-bearing trees and enormous deck fringing the aquamarine pool. Hea-ven!
Best for: Bamboo houses that feel like you’re in North Bali.
How many bedrooms: 1, 3 and 4 bedrooms.
Price: From IDR 2,500,000++ per night.
Address: Jl Pantai Bingin, Gg. Menteg No. 3, Uluwatu.
19. Villa Zyloh
Modern-Mediterranean hilltop escape with luxe whitewashed design and sunset views.
A luxury collection of three villas located high up in the hilltops, Villa Zyloh‘s breathtaking abodes are inspired by modern-Mediterranean architecture. Inside, you’ll find high-end amenities, whitewashed saltwater pools, and even a cinema room.
My top pick is the three-bedroom Zyloh Sunset villa. The first floor stuns with its high ceilings, all-white living room and a kitchen that opens out to the outdoor lounge. There are two bedrooms with private en-suites, but here’s my insider tip: head upstairs and nab yourself the master bedroom, complete with its own walk-in wardrobe and a giant bathtub. Come sunset, head out to the balcony for a chocolate fondue by the fire…
Best for: Modern villas for friends and families, with your own sunset lounge and hilltop views.
How many bedrooms: 2, 3 and 5 bedrooms.
Price: From IDR 7,100,000++ per night.
Address: Jl Cemongkak, Pecatu, Uluwatu.
20. Summer Ulu
A serene, design-led Uluwatu stay with private chef service and sunset deck views.
Summer Ulu is where you go when you actually want to switch off in the Bukit. It’s a masterclass in combining Mediterranean aesthetics with a modern twist on Balinese design. Think terrazzo, deep greens and lime-washed textures that cool you down the second you walk in.
My favourite way to spend an afternoon here is moving from a reset in the ice bath straight to the sunset deck. The views of the Indian Ocean are sweeping, but it’s the layout that really makes it work. Even with a full group of twelve, you never feel like you’re on top of each other. Having a self-contained studio is a game-changer for that one friend (AKA me) who needs a little extra breathing room.
Best for: Families or groups looking for a design-forward villa with plenty of space to unwind together.
How many bedrooms: 5 or 6 bedrooms.
Price: From IDR 25,500,000++ per night.

Spend lazy days by the pool, treat yourself to an indulgent floating breakfast, or swing by the in-house spa to pamper yourself silly. And whenever you want to venture out of your villa, Uluwatu’s most famous sights are just minutes away…
Best for: Honeymooners and wellness seekers who want a villa stay that feels a world away.
How many bedrooms: 1 and 2 bedrooms.
Price: From IDR 2,500,000++ per night.
Address: Jl Bangbang Bendot, Pecatu, Uluwatu.
