Invisible technology, state of the art communications, ultra-modern entertainment concepts and contemporary interior designs and landscapes are part of the next generation of luxurious Villa accommodations for The Ritz Carlton Bali, Resort & Spa’s magnificent 6 hectare multi-faceted development opening 20 December 2004.

The Villas convey sumptuous serenity with plush furnishings and distinctive art and masterpieces collected from the islands famed artisans and are built using smooth marble flooring and classic alang-alang (thatched) roofing.
