One of the only hotels in the Jimbaran Beach area that's directly on the ocean, the mid-sized Jimbaran Puri is a quiet Balinese escape with a luxurious yet relaxed vibe. Spacious, rustic-luxe rooms have patios or private pools, though the tradeoff for the high level of privacy afforded is that the majority lack ocean views. A large, chic pool with a poolside bar faces the ocean and sunset. The two on-site restaurants and 24-hour room service help ensure that guests are well fed, and the extensive breakfast buffet is typically included in the rate. There are spa services available on the beach, and the grounds are lush and tropical, with a temple and various statues offset by lots of native greenery. However, the beach can get a bit dirty and the property lacks a fitness center. Still, this is one of the top hotels in the area; only a few hotels (including Jamahal and Kayumanis Jimbaran) can compare.

Abi Bali Resort & Villa is a four-pearl boutique property located in the outskirts of Jimbaran, a short drive from the beach. The 32 units have contemporary decor and most have outdoor bathrooms; One- and Two-Bedroom Suite Villas also have their own private pools. For guests not staying in Villas, there are numerous other places to swim on-site, including a long main pool that's ideal for laps. Other features include a spa with international and Balinese massages and a restaurant where a free breakfast is served daily. Couples wanting to be nearer to the beach (and willing to pay for it) may prefer the Jamahal Private Resort & SPA, but families should note that the upscale property doesn't allow children under 16.

The 78-unit Villas at AYANA Resort is a huge, opulent property on a private beach looking out over the sea. Villas are large and luxurious, with gorgeous bathrooms, garden terraces, and private plunge pools, but no kitchens. The property shares a plethora of amenities with the AYANA Resort and Spa, including a private beach, 11 pools, an 18-hole putting course, a spa, 15 restaurants serving a variety of cuisine types, and the famous cliffside Rock Bar, with beautiful ocean views. This resort is definitely a showstopper, with rates that reflect this. Travelers seeking a more intimate, cheaper option (albeit without the private beach) may want to consider the Kayumanis Jimbaran Private Estate and Spa instead.

MaxOneHotels at Bukit Jimbaran is a 98-room, three-pearl chain hotel located in the middle of the Bukit Peninsula. This part of Bali is ringed by beaches with excellent surf, though those are at least a 15- to 25-minute drive away (or a ride on the free shuttle). Rooms are well maintained and outfitted with air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi though they lack mini-fridges, kettles, and safes. Facilities include a rooftop pool with an adjoining bar -- it's a highlight for many guests. Otherwise, there's a restaurant serving reasonably priced meals, a small spa, and meeting rooms. The Jimbaran View hotel across the street is slightly pricier but features larger and better-equipped rooms as well as more facilities including a fitness center, kids' club, and lap pool.
