Hello! I'm travel influencer Viewmalraeng.

If you are planning a romantic Bali honeymoon or a relaxing getaway,

you've probably heard of the Ayana Resort at least once.

Ayana Resort Bali 🇲🇨

Today, I'll share some tips on how to book a Bali resort on a budget,

along with my personal review of Ayana, the top-rated resort in Bali.

🔎 What you'll find in this post!

1. Bali Jimbaran Resort Recommendation

Perched on the cliffs of Jimbaran, offering stunning ocean views

and access to an incredible range of facilities,

Ayana is the ultimate luxury resort and a top choice in Bali 🩷

Since they operate four different types of accommodations on-site,

the biggest advantage is that you can choose the perfect fit

for your travel style, budget, and preferences.

🇲🇨 Bali Ayana Resort Price & Type Comparison 🇲🇨

Since getting the best value was my top priority,

I ended up choosing Rimba by Ayana!

Bali Ayana Rimba Price

Successfully booked for around ~$128 per night!

If you're looking for great value like me, go with Rimba.

But if you are booking a luxury honeymoon stay in Bali,

I highly recommend Ayana Resort or The Villas.

✋🏻 When is the best time to book Bali accommodations?

Booking as early as possible is definitely the cheapest way!

The closer you get to your travel dates, the more the prices go up... 🥲

Make sure to book at least a month in advance! ⭐️

2. Rimba by Ayana Bali

When I arrived at the lobby, the lovely staff warmly welcomed me

with a beautiful welcome necklace and a refreshing welcome drink.

After checking in, I hopped onto a complimentary buggy

to head over to the Rimba Wana building where I booked my stay.

If you're visiting for the first time, you'll be absolutely amazed by how massive the resort is.

The absolute best part about AYANA is that

you can get to all the facilities using their free shuttle trams!

Even if you're staying in a different building, you can easily hop on a tram

to access all the pools, restaurants, and the beach, so there was absolutely no inconvenience.

I stayed in a King Bed room, which had

an overall modern, clean, and cozy vibe.

I seriously couldn't believe the room condition at AYANA Rimba Resort Bali

was this amazing for just around ~$130 a night! 🤍

The bed was super plush, and the room came with a TV, a cozy sofa,

and even a desk—perfect for relaxing and unwinding.

The room was well-equipped with a minibar, fridge, bottled water, coffee, and tea,

as well as an electric kettle and an ice bucket.

They even restock two complimentary bottles of water every day during housekeeping!

Check out these safari-chic-themed(?) robes and slippers~

A safe and an iron were also provided in the closet.

The bathroom was incredibly spacious,

easily rivaling any 5-star luxury hotel.

All the essential amenities like toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are provided.

They also place two fresh bottles of water in the bathroom daily,

which made brushing my teeth super convenient and worry-free.

My room was a Resort View room,

which looked out onto a lush, green forest,

and it came with a lovely table and chairs out on the terrace.

Since the weather was super hot, I didn't spend hours sitting out there,

but it was incredibly useful for drying my swimsuits!

3. Pools

One of the biggest reasons AYANA Resort is so famous is definitely its pools!

There are so many pools with different concepts spread across the resort,

that even visiting just two or three of them a day

made me feel like there wasn't enough time.

From family pools and lush jungle-vibe pools to kids' play areas

and stunning infinity pools overlooking the ocean,

each one had such a unique vibe, making every stop feel brand new.

I managed to check out almost every pool during my 2-night stay,

and my absolute favorite

was the infinity pool with a panoramic view of the ocean.

But the most famous spot of all is the River Pool photo zone,

which you've probably seen all over social media!

​

📸 Pro-Tips for the River Pool Photo Spot

⏰ Photo Hours

6:30 AM – 9:00 AM

🎫 How to Get Your Queue Number

Confirm your Room Number upon arrival at the River Pool.

Only 1 queue number is issued per room.

If two people want individual shots, the first person must finish,

→ get a new queue number → and wait in line again.

⏱️ Shoot Duration

60 seconds per group

The countdown starts the exact second you sit down!

✅ How to Get There

Hop on the resort shuttle tram

and get off at the "Villas Lobby" stop.

The trams start running before 7:00 AM,

so making it there for the 6:30 AM open run is totally doable!

Also, I highly, highly recommend

visiting Kubu Beach!!!

You take an elevator down the cliffside to reach it,

and this private beach offers

a completely different, magical vibe compared to your typical shoreline.

4. Dining

AYANA is packed with incredible dining options,

but I visited the two most famous ones:

Rock Bar and Kisik.

Pro-tip: since these are super popular, make sure to book your sunset spots

on the official app the second you check in!

Rock Bar, true to its reputation as Bali's ultimate sunset spot,

had an absolutely incredible atmosphere... 🧡

Perched right on the cliff, watching the ocean

while sipping a cold beer is pure perfection.

Once the sun starts to dip, the vibe gets unbelievably romantic,

so if you're on your honeymoon, this is a non-negotiable must-visit!

Kisik is a fantastic restaurant where you can enjoy fresh seafood barbecue.

The atmosphere of dining while gazing out at the ocean was absolutely incredible,

and I got to savor so much fresh seafood like shrimp, clams, and fish.

It is on the pricier side,

but it was totally worth it for a special, memorable dinner!

5. Breakfast

Breakfast was also way beyond my expectations!

From Korean food to Western dishes and local Indonesian specialties,

there was a massive variety,

and they even had live cooking stations for fresh egg dishes and noodles.

With so many choices of pastries, fresh fruit, and amazing coffee,

I started every single day feeling full and energized.

Pro tip: If you book your room with breakfast included,

you can get it at a much better rate! ~

If you're currently trying to decide where to stay in Bali,

I highly recommend RIMBA by AYANA.

The biggest perk is being able to enjoy a reasonably priced stay

while getting full access to all the incredible facilities

across the entire AYANA Resort complex.
