cool hotels in bali that you'll want to stay forever

You may have stayed at budget hotels and call yourself a savyy backpacker. Or splurged on a luxury boutique hotel and call yourself a glamorous travelista.
But have you ever stayed on a yacht-house, an African style safari lodge (yes in Bali!) or a hotel that resembles a campsite?
We’ll bring you through some of the most unique hotels that you never thought you’ll find in Bali. Read on to find out!

1. Sleep with the lions at Mara River Safari Lodge, Gianyar

Ever wanted to dine with the rhinos? Now you don’t have to fly halfway across the world to have an African safari adventure – you can get it at the Mara River Safari Lodge, located in the heart of the Bali Safari and Marine Park.

2. Do a luxury rustic holiday at Thematic Village Houses at Bambu Indah, Ubud.

Bambu Indah may have one of the greatest villas above water in Bali, but that’s not all to it. If you want to live the village life, these quirky themed houses may be what you’re looking for. You can even climb up to a tree house in the compound that overlooks the valley!

3. Go for eco-luxury at Sharma Springs Bamboo House, Ubud

What could be more eco-friendly than staying in a house made of bamboo? It’s not just about the beautiful view and cool mountain breeze. You are staying at one of the most amazing examples of sustainable design.

4. That odd-little bamboo house at Kali Manik Eco Resort

You’d almost think you’re staying in a strange, odd-shaped version of a bamboo house. The eco-friendly Kali Manik Eco Resort offers calming views of the surrounding greenery just across Kalisada Beach

5. Holiday on a yacht on The Dragoon 130

If staying on land is too mainstream for you, why not try an Indonesian Phinisi yacht-turned-luxury-party-yacht – The Dragoon 130? Built entirely from teak, the yacht features high-end quality materials like ebony, eco-leather, and an awesome surround-sound system.
