Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group will open a new luxury resort and branded residences on Bali’s southern coast. Slated to open in 2027, the Mandarin Oriental, Bali, promises to deliver an unparalleled luxury experience on the picturesque Bukit peninsula.
Perched on a cliff-side plateau, the resort will offer dramatic panoramic views of the Indian Ocean and direct access to a secluded white-sand beach. Designed by design LAB architects and renowned interior designer Jeffrey Wilkes, alongside landscaping expert Bill Bensley, the resort aims to capture the essence of Balinese culture and craftsmanship while maintaining Mandarin Oriental’s high standards of luxury and attention to detail.
Laurent Kleitman, CEO of Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, expressed excitement about the new venture, stating, “We are delighted to extend Mandarin Oriental’s renowned levels of hospitality and exceptional experiences to the beautiful island of Bali. With its stunning cliff-top location and thoughtful design, underpinned by our award-winning service, this resort and branded residences will offer guests and homeowners an unparalleled blend of tranquillity and elegance.”
The project is a collaboration with local real estate developer Harmoni Bali. Leo Koguan, chairman of Harmoni Bali, stated, “We are proud to partner with Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group to elevate luxury hospitality in this extraordinary destination. Our vision is to create an award-winning resort experience that will become a sought-after destination.”
The resort will feature 110 suites and villas, each designed to harmonise with the natural surroundings and offer private terraces or gardens, with most featuring private pools.
The resort’s dining experiences will include a cliff-edge restaurant and bar, a specialty Chinese restaurant, a speakeasy bar, and a beach club, showcasing the best of Indonesian and international cuisine. A sprawling cliff-front lawn will serve as a backdrop for weddings and events.
For those seeking relaxation, the all-inclusive Spa at Mandarin Oriental will provide a range of wellness treatments inspired by Balinese traditions and customs. The spa will include heat and water therapies, outdoor swimming pools, and an extensive fitness centre.
Additional leisure facilities will include a dedicated Kids Club, tennis courts, padel courts, a beach club with water sports, an organic garden, and a sustainability lab.
The resort will also cater to golf enthusiasts, with its proximity to the Bukit Pandawa Golf Course and the Bali National Golf Club.
