Bali’s vibrant beach town of Canggu has just welcomed a magnificent addition to its shores the newly unveiled Regent Bali Canggu Resort. After a long hiatus, Regent Hotels & Resorts has returned to this coveted island, bringing with it a luxury beachfront haven that offers a unique blend of modern indulgence and traditional Balinese charm.
The resort officially made its debut with a soft opening, showcasing 150 exceptional suites and villas spread across 14 acres of serene seaside gardens. Designed by renowned landscape architect John Pettigrew, the lush grounds feature timber walkways, indigenous andesite stone, and intimate communal spaces that celebrate the island’s natural beauty. As guests arrive, they are greeted by a striking arrival pavilion, where a stunning paras stone carving, intricately hand-chiseled by local artisans, greets visitors. This work of art features a whimsical floral motif and sets the tone for the resort’s attention to detail and aesthetic elegance.
Regent Bali Canggu offers a range of accommodation options, with every suite and villa designed to exude understated luxury. The property’s architecture, crafted by Wimberly, Allison, Tong, and Goo (WATG), responds to Bali’s extraordinary landscapes and traditional artisan villages. Inside, Hirsch Bedner Associates has brought the design to life with vivid hues, local textiles, and intricate craftsmanship. Guests will be enveloped in the comfort of batik—an intricate cloth made with wax and dye and luxurious hand-carved teak bathtubs, blending the island’s rich heritage with modern elegance.
Accommodation options at Regent Bali Canggu are vast, starting from the 818-square-foot Studio Suites to the sprawling Two-Bedroom Penthouse, which spans over 6,652 square feet. The penthouse includes a private infinity-edge pool that appears to seamlessly melt into the Indian Ocean, offering one of the most breathtaking views imaginable. For those seeking even more exclusivity, the largest villas feature full kitchens or pantries, along with access to the prestigious Regent Club. Guests of the club enjoy complimentary Champagne, premium beverages, all-day bites, a private breakfast, and an adults-only infinity pool with ocean-view cabanas. The resort’s exclusive curated experiences make every stay an extraordinary one.
Regardless of the accommodation type, all guests enjoy thoughtful perks. These include a pillow menu for customized sleep experiences and private balconies equipped with comfortable lounge seating and dining tables for two, allowing guests to enjoy Bali’s warm, breezy atmosphere from the comfort of their rooms. Additionally, the resort boasts an impressive nine swimming pools, ensuring that there’s a tranquil spot to unwind no matter where you are.
Families traveling with children will appreciate the Regent Kids offering, an indoor-outdoor play area designed to inspire creativity and fun in true Balinese style. Meanwhile, food lovers can explore five distinctive dining concepts. The first two Taru, offering a delectable selection of Indonesian-inspired dishes, and Beach House, serving fresh seafood alongside craft cocktails infused with tropical flavors are now open. Future dining venues will include a Spanish tapas restaurant from renowned chef Andrew Walsh, as well as a Michelin-starred concept set to merge modern European and Indonesian flavors.
A wellness sanctuary, the Regent Spa & Wellness, is also an exciting feature of the resort. Created in partnership with Raison d’Etre Spas, this oasis celebrates Bali’s wellness culture, offering treatments designed to rejuvenate the mind, body, and spirit. Among the offerings are Kerstin Florian facials, crystal energy therapies, and custom massage treatments, all aimed at leaving guests in a heavenly state of relaxation.
Though Canggu is a lively destination, the Regent Bali Canggu aims to transport its guests to a tranquil and exclusive paradise. General Manager Manish Puri describes the resort as a place where “the spirit of Bali” is beautifully captured throughout, inviting guests to experience a sense of serenity, luxury, and intrigue.
Whether you’re seeking a peaceful escape or a place to indulge in world-class amenities, the Regent Bali Canggu offers an unforgettable experience, seamlessly blending Bali’s timeless charm with the refined elegance of modern luxury.
