This luxury hotel is bright, airy, and favors contemporary decor over typical Balinese design. The light-filled lobby is eclectic, with a variety of seating areas, including a long wooden work table, plush banquettes, and woven chairs facing large floor-to-ceiling windows that look out on a decorative infinity pool. All 118 rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows, private terraces with pool views, pillow menus, iPod docks, safes, desks, bottled water, mini-fridges with minibars, and international electrical sockets. Guests receive a free hour of daily Wi-Fi access in common areas, but there is a fee for in-room Wi-Fi, which is renewable on a 24-hour basis. There are also five on-site meeting and event rooms, three of which can be combined to fit up to 120 people.
Set on a small side street off the main road, the Abi Bali Resort & Villa has a simple, low-key look from the outside. Inside, the contemporary lobby has carved columns and the quintessentially Balinese ceiling, but black marble floors and black and lime-green retro couches make it feel a tad more corporate than island-style. A business center with a couple of computers sits in a corner next to an enormous carved relief depicting scenes from village life. There are 32 rooms in four room types, all with flat-screen TVs with cable and DVD players and free Wi-Fi.
