Restaurant gets mixed reviews
The 25-room Viceroy Bali is a luxury hotel that draws high-end clientele with its tropical setting overlooking Petanu Valley and its convenient helipad. The property also offers airport limousine service, an open-air restaurant, and a lovely pool with a swim-up bar. A hillside spa and modern gym complete the list of excellent amenities. The spacious Balinese villas have private pools, flat-screen TVs, safes, and indoor/outdoor sitting areas; some have thatched-roof gazebos. There’s golf cart transportation on-site, but the grounds are often sloped so getting around can be tricky. Another luxurious option is the Chedi Club Tanah Gajah. Wi-Fi, breakfast, and parking are all free at the Viceroy (but expect sky-high rates).

Scene
Exclusive, five-pearl property in Bali with a helipad, infinity pool, and spa
The Viceroy Bali delivers a five-pearl experience in a tranquil, rural setting that’s a 10-minute drive to lively Ubud city. Owned and run by an Australian family, the secluded atmosphere attracts couples and honeymooners, but also high-end travelers who want to vacation anonymously and take advantage of the resort’s private helipad. The property -- built by architect Ketut Mahardika and designed by Margaret Bainbridge -- showcases the lush backdrop of Petanu River Valley and distant Mount Batur volcano views. Palm trees frame the thatched-roof entrance that leads into a spacious open-air lobby, with an intimate front desk manned by traditionally dressed staff. Overall the atmosphere is serene, upscale, and romantic.
