Perched gracefully along the shores of Kuta Beach, The Anvaya Beach Resort Bali stands as the flagship of Santika Indonesia Hotels and Resorts: the group’s only wholly owned and managed five-star property. Despite its impressive scale, the resort blends seamlessly with its coastal surroundings, framed by swaying palms and the gentle sound of the sea.
Drawing inspiration from Hindu Balinese architecture and contemporary minimalism, the resort’s design offers a captivating first impression long before guests reach the lobby. Each of the 493 rooms and suites continues this visual narrative, pairing warm wooden details, intricate carvings and woven rattan motifs with cool marble floors and soft greys. Lush gardens weaved between the structures bring balance and freshness to every corner.
Here, 4 hectares of verdant landscape hum with a quiet sense of tropical modernism. Lantern-like installations rise above reflective ponds, while brise-soleil patterns gently filter sunlight into calm, inviting spaces. This thoughtful aesthetic extends into Sakanti Spa and Kunyit Restaurant, where Bali Aga elements add a layer of cultural richness. At Kunyit, guests can savour Indonesian specialities infused with turmeric, a fitting nod to the restaurant’s name.
The atmosphere shifts at Sands Restaurant, where modern coastal dining meets the island’s breezy ambience. Here, Mediterranean and Californian flavours come alive beside panoramic ocean views. For something more laid-back, the Pool Bar swaps wooden accents for pale stone textures, perfect for a relaxed afternoon drink beneath the golden light of sunset.
