The Bandha Hotel & Suites gives you all the luxury and tranquillity you need

It’s not necessarily that hard to find fantastic hotels in Bali. But with so many hotels and resorts to choose from, it can be challenging to know which one to choose.

Where you choose to stay will depend on what is important to you and your travelling companions. Our tip provides great value - The Bandha Hotel & Suites offers 5-star luxury at a great price in a good location.

The Bandha Hotel & Suites – a modern Balinese-style hotel

They also arrange weddings on their premises and have a lovely roof terrace.

Legian is a popular area with tourists and travellers. It is located north of Kuta and ends where Seminyak beach starts. It is thus well located on the beach, but with less noise and bustle than Kuta or Seminyak. Legian is still just 15 minutes away from the shopping street of Seminyak, which is home to great boutiques, restaurants, beach clubs and nightlife venues.

One of Bali's most popular beach clubs, Potato Head, is located in Seminyak, a short taxi ride from the hotel. The club is suitable for everyone and is also child friendly. Here you can enjoy meals, bask in the sun, and sip tasty drinks. Come early to secure a sunbed.

Legian is a safe and easy place for tourists, and most people there speak English. Legian beach also offers surfing and is great for beginners as the waves aren’t that big on this side of the island.

The Bandha is located right on the beach, with a separate entrance to the restaurant only steps from the sea. It takes about 25 minutes by taxi from Bali’s international airport to reach the hotel.
