Designed by a dynamic trio (Design Lab architects, interior designer Jeffrey Wilkes and Bill Bensley), the resort tastefully captures the essence of Balinese culture across the 110 suites and villas, food and beverage outlets (that includes a speakeasy and beach club), and sprawling cliff-front lawn, poised to be part of many special events to come.

The highly anticipated event, which was held at Marquee Singapore on 19 July 2024, was a night filled with music, passion and interactive fringe activities and a celebration of the spirit of Por Amor (meaning ‘for love’ in Spanish).
