Inspired by the traditional five elements of Balinese design, Mövenpick Resort & Spa Jimbaran, Bali will start welcoming guests on January 12, 2017 as the brand’s respected upscale hospitality offering arrives in the Island of the Gods.
The newly built hotel is a short 100-metre stroll to Jimbaran Bay in southern Bali, renowned for the 4km stretch of pristine beach and located approximately 20 minutes from the island’s Ngurah Rai International Airport.
Bali’s newest lifestyle destination, the Samasta Village shopping and cultural complex, is located next door to the resort and with its shops, cafes, restaurants and entertainment performances, complete the Balinese experience for visitors.
The new hotel is a milestone for the Swiss hospitality group, whose strategic expansion plan in Southeast Asia will bring its portfolio to 30 operating hotels by 2020.
“We are delighted to be opening our first property in Indonesia, a country central to our expansion plans in Southeast Asia, and where better to start than Bali,” said Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts Senior Vice President Asia, Andrew Langdon. “We are looking forward to our opening and to offering our unique blend of upscale Swiss-inspired hospitality to guests from around the world.”
Mövenpick Resort & Spa Jimbaran Bali features 297 comfortably appointed and tastefully furnished rooms and suites, each featuring private balconies, complimentary WiFi and a subtle Balinese sense of art, colour and style courtesy of the fabrics and materials utilised in the design.
The highlight of the resort is its free-form swimming pool which features an artificial beach area and lap pool, offering a total of 2,900 sqm of pure water fun. A dedicated Meera (Ocean) Kid’s Club and a Teen Club with its own fun and activity pool caters specifically to families; the daily supervised entertainment will be a highlight for young world travellers.
Guests who are keen to keep up their fitness routine will also have access to the 24-hour gym, whilst those wishing to indulge in a relaxing experience are welcome to visit the spa (opening March 2017), which highlights Balinese and Indonesian spa and beauty culture.
An extensive range of dining options will cater to all tastes, including the signature Anarasa restaurant with interactive live cooking stations and internationally influenced a la carte menus and Above Eleven Bali (opening in February 2017), where breathtaking rooftop views are paired with a Peruvian-Japanese inspired menu.
Katha Lobby Lounge & Library invites guests to unwind over an intimate beverage, while Mövenpick Café offers a world of delights including the group’s famed coffee, Swiss-style artisanal ice cream and chocolate. For casual bites, JeJaLa Pool Deck provides a vast selection of refreshments to the pool deck, 213 sun loungers, and eight private cabanas.
