Alila Villas Uluwatu, Uluwatu, Bali, Indonesia
Without including the fall-off-your-chair impressive villas, this place offers some pretty magical experiences. The spectacular clifftop pool and bar; fine dining at CIRE, with its regional produce and bold architectural lines, or at Sunset Cabana accompanied by Indian Ocean views; the three types of butler service, up to and including personal suntan lotion application; or maybe most impressive (and tempting!) of all: Alila's personal journeys of cultural richness.
