Known as one of Bali's best upscale destinations, Seminyak welcomes visitors looking to get away from it all. Kick back on the beach, indulge at the spa, and relax at your choice of Seminyak villas during the trip of a lifetime.

Like much of Bali, Seminyak enjoys warm weather every day of the year. While the area does experience seasonal weather changes, you'll find highs in the upper 80s or low 90s just about any time you visit. If you're planning a trip between October and April, be sure to pack an umbrella and prepare for occasional monsoons. Visit in July or August, and you'll enjoy low humidity and sunny skies.

Bali's most convenient gateway for international travelers is Ngurah Rai International Airport, located in nearby Denpasar. To get to your ultimate destination, hail a taxi for the 7-mile ride from the airport. Once you arrive in town, you'll find many Seminyak villas are just a short walk from the beach, the shopping areas, and the town's best restaurants. If you're planning to explore nearby towns such as Kuta or Ubud, or if you're considering an excursion to a wildlife sanctuary or a remote temple, hire a private driver or rent a motorbike for the journey.

Start your visit at Seminyak Beach and Petitenget Beach, deservedly famous stretches of white sand. These are the ideal spots for soaking up the sunshine, swimming in the sea, and surfing the impressive waves. Though the beach is a popular spot all day long, it's particularly stunning at sunset. The beach might be the main attraction in Seminyak, but there's much more to do than soak up the sunshine. To get a closer look at Bali's underwater life, sign up for a snorkeling or scuba diving tour just offshore. Book a memorable horseback ride to gain a new perspective of the beach. For another kind of adventure, shop until you drop in the designer boutiques that line Jalan Laksmana. Here you'll find a range of clothing stores, art galleries, and even antique shops. If you're shopping for fresh food or snacks, set your sights on Seminyak Market, widely known for its selection of local fruit. Treat yourself to an afternoon or an entire day of relaxation at one of the many spas in Seminyak. From massages in opulent settings to baths and saunas in communal settings, you'll find the perfect place to unwind in Seminyak.

Try some of Seminyak's local dishes at Made's Warung, a Balinese institution, or at Sate Bali, a popular outdoor restaurant. Treat yourself to a meal at one of Seminyak's hippest restaurants, Sarong, which serves up traditionally inspired Balinese dishes with contemporary twists.
