Chic restaurants, electric designs and exclusive treats by the beach – welcome to Seminyak's most stylish, hedonistic playground
It’s no secret that W Bali – Seminyak is full to the fabulous brim with designer island indulgences. It’s a favourite destination for Bali’s international jet-set, sitting in prime position on the hip and happening sands of Seminyak Beach. But honestly? Swanky aesthetics and an A-List address are just the start of this uber-stylish Seminyak hotel.
Once you wind your way through the Instagrammable entrance and step inside this hedonistic playground, you’ll come face-to-face with sensory treats at every turn. From bottomless Champagne brunches to exclusive villas and celebrity-style services (not to mention 24-hour spa treatments to keep you revived and kicking), W Bali – Seminyak is one of the most glamorous and contemporary resorts in Bali.
To give you a taste of the sizzling and sophisticated splendour at this island icon, here’s what we love the most at W Bali – Seminyak, and why this five-star resort has got the wow-factor.
We love the wow-worthy designs
Perfectly placed in Bali’s hippest neighbourhood, W Bali – Seminyak is laced with wow-worthy designs that set the scene for a truly fabulous and tropical escape. Bold interiors, vibrant textures and sensory experiences galore meet Bali’s rich culture and natural beauty, perfectly presenting the island’s captivating spirit through the vibrant W lens. Take the sleek, resin contours of the W Lounge for example. Its eye-catching, back-lit bar glows in electric LED hues, melding with chandeliers that resemble Bali’s traditional pagoda roofs. Or how about the enormous 1,790 sqm outdoor WET® pool that’s been inspired by the shape of Balinese rice fields? Or the blurred line between inside and out, where sea breezes whistle through a wall of hand-blown glass jars, each holding a piece of capiz shell that allows the wall to “sing”. All of this, and that’s before we even mention W Bali – Seminyak’s designer digs…
Designer digs & stylish suites
A true oasis of beachfront luxury, W Bali – Seminyak is home to some seriously stylish rooms, suites and villas – most of which offer ocean views over the glittering horizon. Like your own personal hideaway within the resort’s tropical grounds, the designer digs here are an escape within an escape. Think high-energy interiors, Egyptian cotton sheets and ultra-modern amenities (hello BOSE speakers and Bliss Spa essentials!). Not to mention, private plunge pools, sun lounges, terrazzo bathtubs and comfy daybeds within the soundproofed villas, tucked away from the world outside…
Delish wining & dining
W Bali – Seminyak’s collection of iconic restaurants and lounges need no introduction. The resort’s culinary greats are where you’ll find two of Bali’s best brunches, some of our fave breakfast spreads, and the most glamorous gourmet feasts by the beach. Head to Starfish Bloo for its seaside views and fresh-from-the-net seafood, or the oh-so urban FIRE restaurant for Asian-inspired specialities sizzling in the dramatic open kitchen. There’s also the forever-fabulous Woobar – a three-story bar on the beach to eat, drink and play. Or the sleek and stylish W Lounge that serves signature cocktails and a multi-tiered afternoon tea.
Ain’t no party like a Woobar party
Known for its playful personality, big-name DJ appearances and epic sunset seats, Woobar is hands down one of the coolest places to both chill and party on the island. This stylish beach-side bar is where it’s at for creative cocktails, light bites, and all-night parties with both resident and international DJs taking to the beachfront decks. And because everyone knows that there ain’t no party like a Woobar party, it’s also where you’ll find Bali’s coolest crowds, flocking to the seafront for major events and island performances with an Insta-friendly beach backdrop. Cheers to that!
24/7 bliss at AWAY Spa
In true W style, a visit to the oh-so fabulous AWAY Spa isn’t your usual pampering sesh. First off, it’s open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, meaning it’s never too early (or too late) to pamper yourself silly. Midnight massages, post-clubbing oxygen facials (with a glass of bubbles from the spa’s own Chill Bar) and 4am bliss-outs before an early morning flight are all on the menu. It’s a contemporary and super-funky wellness sanctuary of all things glam, where spa-goers can switch off from the world, indulge in sensational treatments, and leave feeling rejuvenated, recharged and ready for whatever’s next on the itinerary. Try the Morning After DETOX Massage for a post-party refresh. Or the Signature Balinese Massage that uses warm fresh ginger to heal and soothe. Whatever you choose, you’ll come face-to-face with playful scents, imaginative sounds, energising lights and detoxifying potions for complete sensory hedonism.
Celeb-style services
“Just ask and you will be served”. That’s the mantra for W’s legendary Whatever/Whenever® service. With the help of the resort’s 24-hour concierge, you can live like a celeb with every wish and whim granted – no matter the time of day or the size of the request. Private helicopter ride over the Uluwatu cliffs? Roger that. Front and centre to your fave island band? On it with earplugs waiting for you. A fine Wagyu steak delivered to your door at 3am? Coming right up… Yup, whether you’ve got a diva-level request or you simply need a helping hand exploring the hip ‘hood of Seminyak, W Bali’s profesh concierge are on hand to bring you whatever you want, whenever you need it. And that’s what sets this sizzling destination apart from the rest.
The W Sound Suite
Just when we thought W Bali – Seminyak couldn’t get any cooler, we found the W Sound Suite – a unique space for artists to work hard and play harder in a private music recording studio and creative space. The 50 sqm space includes a lounge, a live room and a main mixing room featuring the latest professional equipment from top-tier brands. It’s perfect for individual studio sessions and even DJ lessons too. Whether you’re a master musician or a Madonna in the making, the W Sound Suite has got you covered.
