Overview
A Tale of Ocean Cliffs and Jungle Serenity
Samabe Bali Suites & Villas and Abisena Ubud could hardly be more different, yet together they create one of the most compelling twin centre escapes in Bali. Five nights at Samabe place you above the Indian Ocean on the clifftops of Nusa Dua, where Balinese hospitality meets luxury all-inclusive living, before a scenic two-hour drive trades the ocean breeze for cool jungle air and the adults-only sanctuary of Abisena Ubud, where private pool villas nestle among rice terraces and each day is shaped by wellness and stillness. Two destinations. One unforgettable Balinese escape.
Itinerary Overview
Nusa Dua — 5 Nights at Samabe Bali Suites & Villas
Arrive on the southern tip of Bali and check in to Samabe Bali Suites & Villas, a clifftop luxury resort perched above the Indian Ocean in the prestigious enclave of Nusa Dua. With 81 suites and free-standing villas across eight lush hectares and an all-inclusive Unlimited Privilege plan covering everything from à la carte dining and cocktails to water sports and cultural activities, Samabe is the rare resort where the hardest decision of the day is whether to take breakfast in the restaurant, on your villa terrace, or floating in your private pool.
Highlights at Samabe Bali Suites & Villas:
- Settle into your clifftop suite or free-standing pool villa, where every room comes with a telescope for stargazing once the sun goes down.
- Make the most of the Unlimited Privilege all-inclusive plan, covering all meals and à la carte dining, cocktails, beers, wines and spirits from 11am to midnight, non-motorised water sports, daily yoga and one Samabe Signature Activity per night of stay.
- Dine at the Crystal Blue Ocean Grill, an open-air thatched pavilion serving fresh seafood and premium steaks with a front-row view of the Indian Ocean.
- Arrange a private romantic dinner at the beach cave, beneath the cliff gazebo, or under an ancient tree on the sand.
- Unwind at Galangal Spa, where treatments conclude in an outdoor sunken tub filled with flower petals and drifting incense.
- Optional: Honeymooners and those celebrating a birthday or anniversary can choose one of nine complimentary special touches, from an aroma candle bath to a private Indonesian rijsttafel dinner.

After the ocean grandeur of Nusa Dua, a scenic two-hour drive through Bali’s interior delivers you to an entirely different world.
