FollowAfter a two-week holiday in Bali, I am in love with the island! If you enjoy good restaurants, concept stores, and nightlife, then Seminyak is the place to be in Bali for you. Unfortunately, most hotels right on the beach are very expensive… The perfect solution is The Haven Seminyak Bali . A design hotel with a sleek pool, modern rooms, in a perfect location just around the corner from many nice clothing stores and close to beach bar La Plancha . The Haven Seminyak Bali is not directly on the sea, but it does have a private beach where you can relax on a sunbed and watch the high waves. There is a shuttle service from the hotel, and next to the private stretch of beach is a nice restaurant that will bring your lunch to your beach bed. Perfect! From The Haven Seminyak Bali, it is a 15-minute taxi ride to Kudeta and 20 minutes to Potato Head and the W Hotel.

Cycling in Ubud. Or sightseeing with a visit to rice fields and temples.
