Location: Jalan Taman Ganesha No. 9 Petitenget, Seminyak 80361 Bali, Indonesia
Year built: October 2015
Architect: Gaurang Khemka/URBNarc
Ethos: Sustainable secret garden paradise
ALILA Seminyak, one of Alila’s five properties in Bali, is your sustainable getaway in the heart of Seminyak. Located between renown Potato Head Beach Club and Ku De Ta, the location is close to all the action while still being secluded enough to cover all of your getaway needs. I loved walking into ALILA Seminyak every time because the lobby area is semi-outdoors, which is a common theme throughout the resort. Rooms...

Year built: September 1989.
Architect: Peter Muller from Sydney, Australia
Ethos: modern Balinese village, located around terraces and the only resort located close to a temple
Bali is like an oasis for the senses – the scenery, the people, the food, and the pace, each have their own distinct, unique qualities, but together, act as a respite for the mind and body. This trip to Bali gave me focus and mental clarify by giving me the chance to completely immerse myself in nature (one of the best things about being in Ubud.) This time, I stayed at Amandari, which i...

My latest escape has taken me to Bali, where I got to relax at the closest thing to paradise – Amankila resort in Manggis, Bali just off the east coast of the archipelago. Amankila means ‘peaceful hill’, which describes the resort in the most minimal way. Built in March 1992 by architect Ed Tuttle, the resort was inspired by the palaces of Ujung and Tirtagangga. Each suite is built like a beach house and is connected with pathways, each suite elevated on stilts to maximize sea views. It overlooks the Lombok Strait and everywhere you turn is a picturesque moment. The resort is a perfect mix of modern...

This is one of the most exciting trips I’ve been on that I’ve been anticipating the most because I finally got the chance to visit Bhutan! Located in the Eastern Himalayas, Bhutan is a Buddhist country that requires an extensive visa process, so it’s crucial that you research the different visas that are required before you go. Make sure you get your visa first before booking your flight since there are different fees, for example, there is a minimum spend each day per visitor, or if you’re traveling by car, certain permits are required to go through certain areas. Because I stayed at AMANKORA, the...
