New Le Méridien property makes its debut in Bali
Starwood Hotels & Resorts and PT Tiara Raya Bali International have announced the opening of the newlty build Le Méridien Bali Jimbaran resort in Indonesia.
Located on the southwest coastline of Bali, Le Méridien Bali Jimbaran is set by the white sands of Jimbaran Bay, a secluded, tranquil locale that once housed a small fishing village.
The hotel's 118 guest rooms and suites feature modern batik motifs and liquid art imagery by German artist Markus Reugels.
Ground floor guestrooms open directly onto a (13,993sq ft) 1,300 sq m organic form saltwater lagoon pool.
Guests at the Lagoon Access Room (or the Aqua Pool Sky Penthouse which comes with a private saltwater pool) have a private terrace with 24 hours access to the saltwater lagoon.
The hotel's Serenity spa features six 'experience' treatment rooms and a relaxation lounge.
The spa boosts a "pure, potent and all natural" approach and signature treatments include 45-minute Cradle and Expand which engages guests through the power of deep breathing and stretching. It involves lengthening the spine and implicating mindfulness by focussing on the current state and eliminating negative emotions.
Express treatments are also on offer including the 30-minute express facial for those looking for a quick boost, while more intense 90-minute Meridian Stress Release Massage packages are also available.
The resort offers four dining venues in a three-storey complex, including: the signature restaurant Bamboo Chic, featuring Pan-Asian flavours fused with Balinese ingredients; Smoqee Lounge & Sky Bar with sunset views, and soothing tunes from resident DJs; Latitude 8, offering coffee by day and wines and tapas by night; and WALA, an casual spot for handcrafted gelato and coffee.
Brian Povinelli, global brand leader, Le Méridien said: "Le Méridien is experiencing a year of significant growth.
"With a refined Le Méridien brand positioning focused on unlocking the destination and our best portfolio and performance levels ever, we are proud to return to Bali in such an ideal setting as the culturally-rich Jimbaran area."
