Mengapa Berbulan Madu di Uluwatu?
Uluwatu, gabungan dari dua kata Bali, Ulu (ujung daratan) dan Watu (batu), adalah salah satu destinasi selancar dan wisata paling populer di Bali. Terletak di ujung barat daya Bali, Indonesia, tempat ini sangat digemari, terutama di kalangan peselancar, wisatawan, dan pasangan. Pantai-pantai terindah dan tebing-tebing menakjubkan di Bali dapat ditemukan di sini, begitu pula dengan matahari terbenam paling memukau yang menghadap Samudra Hindia.
Setelah ditemukan sebagai lokasi selancar utama pada tahun 1972, tempat ini telah menjadi destinasi bulan madu yang terkenal, menampilkan resor paling mewah, klub, dan restoran super mewah di Bali. Menawarkan pantai-pantai dengan air biru kehijauan yang jernih, pasir putih bersih, dan matahari terbenam yang memukau, destinasi bulan madu ini akan membuat pasangan semakin jatuh cinta. Meskipun Uluwatu adalah destinasi selancar kelas dunia, ada juga ombak untuk pemula yang cocok bagi mereka yang baru belajar berselancar.
Jelajahi Uluwatu
Jika definisi Anda tentang destinasi bulan madu yang sempurna adalah lokasi wisata populer dengan matahari terbenam yang memukau, pantai berpasir putih bersih, tempat di mana Anda bisa belajar aktivitas seru dan romantis seperti berselancar, dan tempat yang dipenuhi dengan hotel dan resor mewah, maka Ulu, singkatan dari Uluwatu, sangat cocok untuk Anda.
Uluwatu berada di semenanjung Bukit, di selatan bandara dan sekitar 30 menit berkendara dari bandara. Desa Uluwatu, yang biasa disebut Pecatu, berbatasan dengan Samudra Hindia di sebelah selatan dan memiliki serangkaian gua, restoran, serta pemandangan matahari terbenam yang memukau.
Pura Uluwatu dan Tari Kecak
Pura Uluwatu yang populer hanya berjarak 5 menit berkendara dari kota dan merupakan tempat di mana Tari Kecak tradisional Bali yang terkenal dipentaskan. Tebing-tebing di sekitar pura memiliki ekosistem hewan yang kaya, termasuk kerajaan monyet yang berkembang pesat. Tidak jarang menemukan monyet-monyet yang nakal dan merebut hiasan kepala, jadi sebaiknya Anda mengikatkannya erat-erat di kepala Anda! Ada laporan yang mengatakan bahwa jika Anda menyuap mereka dengan cukup baik, mereka mungkin akan mengembalikannya.
Pantai, tebing, dan pemandangan
Menuju sisi timur Uluwatu, terdapat hutan yang rimbun dikelilingi pantai dengan pasir yang memukau. Terdapat juga banyak restoran mewah, klub, dan hotel-hotel mewah.
Jika Anda lebih suka menginap di tepi pantai, tertidur ditemani suara ombak yang menenangkan, dan terbangun dengan aroma air laut serta belaian lembut semilir angin, dua hotel menawarkan pilihan ini: Hotel Padang Padang dan Bingin. Namun, keduanya berada di utara Uluwatu dan tidak sepenuhnya dapat diakses dengan mobil. Anda harus berjalan kaki menuruni jalan setapak sejauh 300 meter terakhir.
Salah satu alasan mengapa Uluwatu begitu populer adalah karena matahari terbenamnya yang memukau dengan pemandangan langsung ke Samudra Hindia. Menyaksikan matahari terbenam adalah pengalaman yang benar-benar menenangkan dan romantis. Bayangkan Anda dan pasangan duduk di atas tebing yang tinggi, bersandar satu sama lain, dengan deburan ombak dari pantai di bawah Anda, sembari Anda menikmati matahari terbenam yang begitu penuh warna hingga membuat Anda terpaku. Sungguh kebahagiaan sejati, percayalah.
Tidak seperti bagian utara Bali, yang jauh lebih tenang dan memiliki sedikit pilihan kemewahan, resor dan restoran di Uluwatu berkelas tinggi dan berkualitas terbaik. Mereka menawarkan berbagai layanan dengan harga yang jauh lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan yang Anda temukan di belahan dunia barat.
Destinasi selancar terkenal di dunia
Kami telah menyebutkan sebelumnya bahwa Uluwatu adalah destinasi selancar kelas dunia. Tempat ini menjadi sorotan setelah film selancar klasik berjudul Morning Of The Earth difilmkan di sana. Sejak saat itu, Uluwatu telah menjadi lokasi selancar paling terkenal di Bali, menarik banyak ahli selancar dan bahkan pemula. Meskipun peselancar yang lebih berpengalaman menggunakan Uluwatu, masih ada pantai-pantai dengan ombak kecil yang cocok untuk pemula belajar.
Jika Anda dan pasangan adalah penggemar selancar, atau jika ide belajar selancar saat bulan madu Anda menarik bagi Anda, maka Uluwatu adalah tempat yang wajib Anda kunjungi. Pantai Padang Padang dan Pantai Canggu adalah pantai terbaik di Uluwatu untuk pemula.
Jika Anda lebih memilih untuk tidak berselancar namun melakukan sesuatu yang tidak terlalu melelahkan dan lebih romantis, Anda bisa menyaksikan warna-warni matahari terbenam yang memukau. Ini benar-benar sebuah tontonan yang mempesona. Menyaksikan matahari terbenam di Uluwatu akan lebih berkesan jika dinikmati dari restoran Single Finn – mereka menawarkan pemandangan terbaik.
Hotel Bulan Madu di Uluwatu
Beberapa hotel paling spektakuler dan mewah di Bali dapat ditemukan di kawasan Uluwatu. Bersiaplah untuk memanjakan diri dengan gaya hidup dan pelayanan mewah yang benar-benar sepadan. Meskipun sebagian besar hotel ini lebih mahal daripada yang ditemukan di tempat lain di Bali, mereka memberikan nilai sepadan dengan uang yang Anda keluarkan. Berikut adalah pilihan utama kami untuk hotel-hotel mewah di Uluwatu.

★ Our Fav!Experience the Kecak Fire Dance
CultureUluwatu TempleRead More ↓Right next to the Uluwatu temple, at sunset a traditional Kecak Fire Dance is performed by local Balinese people. After exploring the temple, you could stay for this spectacular fire dance show.
It's one of Bali's most popular and iconic art performances and takes place for an hour every day during sunset (from 6PM to 7PM). The dance is truly a sight to behold as it is not accompanied by any musical instruments but the dancers' acapella clap. It is usually sold out, so make sure you book the tickets in advance.

Sundays Beach Club
BeachClub20m drive from UluwatuRead More ↓On a beautiful secluded white sand beach down from the South Bali cliffs you'll find the Sundays beach club. To get down to the beach, expect to take a breathtaking elevator down. While Sundays does accept walk in guests, we recommend booking one of the VIP Day Beds well in advance, which is pricey but most of the fee can be used to order food and drinks. Visitors can enjoy the crystal-clear blue waters by swimming, but depending on the tides can also borrow one of the kayaks or stand-up-paddle boards. Do note there is no pool, so in low tide (or for those that do not like the ocean) the options for swimming are limited!

Surfing on Bali's most famous wave
ActiveThrillMany spots around UluwatuRead More ↓Uluwatu is not known as Bali's most popular surfing destination for nothing. It has various surfing spots and has seen visits from many expert surfers.
Although most of the beaches there have waves that expert surfers can only ride, some beaches like Padang Padang beaches offer lessons for beginners and can also be used by beginner surfers for learning.

Single Fin
BeachClubUluwatu CliffRead More ↓Not exactly a beach club, Single Fin is right on top of the cliff of Uluwatu. However we like to visit Single Fin for their cocktails, especially during sunset. Uluwatu is known as one of the most challenging surf spots in the world, and from Single Fin you have an excellent view over the waves and experienced surfers during the day. At night there are often parties.
Recently Single Fin opened a pool area, making it an even more desirable place to hang out for a couple of hours during the day. Do note that around sunset the place usually gets very crowded. Tip if the crowds get too much for you: for sunset you could walk down into the cave below the cliff if its high tide.

Paragliding over the cliff

Palmilla features a large pool and luxury sunbeds. Food and drinks here are simple but decent. Entrance fee is around 10$ for general seating, but a higher minimum spend is required to enjoy the nicer options like the gazebo's. Do note you won't catch sunset here as it is facing south.

Hike down to Nyang Nyang Beach
ActiveBeach10m drive from UluwatuRead More ↓If you and your partner love a secluded beach with pristine white sand and clear aquamarine water, then the Nyang Nyang Beach is one of the locations you must visit.
This beach is one of the most beautiful and clean beaches in all of Bali. It is a short drive from Uluwatu, and you can easily rent a scooter to drive you there. You might as well hire a private car or driver. Most resorts provide this.
The beach has two entrances, one towards the east and the other towards the west. The roads are very steep. You'll be asked to pay a small entrance fee at the entrance, and then you can start your descent down the cliff to reach the beach. This takes about 15-20 minutes.
Cozy Warungs are at the top and bottom of the cliff to provide snacks and refreshments. The eastern side of the beach has a shipwreck you can explore and take pictures on. Explore the beach to your heart's content by taking a stroll with the sand sifting through your legs and the ocean breeze keeping you calm and relaxed. You can also go for a cool swim.
It would be best to start your journey and exploration mid-morning before it gets too hot and populated.

Tropical Temptation Beach Club
Relaxing & wellnessBeachClubNightlife20 min drive from UluwatuRead More ↓Tropical Temptation is a luxury bohemian-styled Beach Club on one of the best beaches in South Bali. We have visited this beach club twice, read our full review here. What we like: its artsy, with classy vibes, stunning views over the ocean and cliffs of Melasti Beach, offers great food and is relatively affordable for a beach club.
Melasti Beach is close to Uluwatu and Nusa Dua. You'll reach the beach by following a spectacular road down the cliffs. In our view Tropical Temptation is the best beach club in the area, with multiple pools, lots of options for healthy food. If you book a daybed here, you will have to pay a minimum spend starting at around 1 million IDR (65 USD) for a couple, but we would recommend going for the first row of beds which have a slightly higher minimum spend.

You can choose a custom trip duration between 6, 8 and 10 hours. This will cost you between 48 to 80 USD for the entire group. This is an affordable option to explore the island. However, do note that while most guided tours are more expensive, these usually include amenities like entrance fees and lunch. When you plan your own tour, you will need to buy entrance tickets and lunch yourself!
TIP: This "tour" can start and end in any Bali location. You could even choose to start your day in one hotel, explore the island, and get dropped off at a new location, saving you additional taxi fees!

★ Our Fav!The Cave Bali
Fine diningPecatu, 20 mins from UluwatuRead More ↓The most spectacular fine dining experience you will find in Bali, in a real natural cave! We've been at The Cave and loved it, but its one of the more fancy and expensive fine dining experiences in Bali. You will pay a lot more here than in some of the other fine dining restaurants. Dining in a cave is a very spectacular experience though, and we believe it might be worth splurging on this if you love to experience something very unique.
The Cave is located in an actual natural underground cavern that was only discovered a couple of years ago. They turned the space into a circular restaurant with around 10 tables for two people. This means capacity is very limited, book in advance! As we arrived early, before the start of the dinner the waiters suggested us to explore a bit of the cave beyond the main chamber.
Seven or ten courses will be served (we opted for seven), and between courses they will dim the lights and project a light show on the walls of the cave. The menu is designed by chef Ryan Clift, who worked with famous chefs like Peter Gordon and Emmanuel Renaut. We believe the food was very good and original, but the most memorable thing definitely is the setting in which it is served.
7-Course Set Menu: Roughly 145$ pp (130$ extra with wine/cocktail pairing).

★ Our Fav!Koral Restaurant - The Apurva Kempinski Bali
Fine diningViewpoint30 min drive from UluwatuRead More ↓Koral Restaurant is situated under a spectacular acquarium at The Apurva Kempinski Bali in Nusa Dua, meaning you will dine surrounded by sea life. We saw manta rays, countless species of fish and even small sharks! However it is not just the surroundings that are impressive here. Recently the French one Michelin-starred chef Jean-Baptiste Natali joined Koral, and we really enjoyed all dishes that came out of his kitchen.
We believe Koral is a perfect option for honeymooners that stay in Nusa Dua, Uluwatu or Seminyak, especially if you can secure one of the six tables under the tunnel (book well in advance!). Tell the restaurant you are on a honeymoon, a diver might swim by to wish you and your partner a happy honeymoon from the water. Koral can accomodate other surprises too, like proposals or birthday congratulations.
We enjoyed an 8-course assorted menu which kicked off with unique appetizers which directly gave us the feeling we were experiencing fine dining. This was quickly followed by caviar on coconut jelly combined with potato churros, a surprisingly tasty combination. A few seafood dishes followed of which the lobster with shiitake mushroom was our favorite. The only meat dish during our experience consisted of tasty striploin veal with black truffle. Finally we were treated with a few rounds of dessert of which we loved the banana parsley with almonds most. At the end we were quite full, and we decided to take the mignardises home.
We didn't opt for the wine pairing as we had to drive back to Canggu, but tried the mocktails instead and they were unique and tasty, especially the Desert Rose.
It is still a worthwhile experience if you can't book a table in the tunnel, but you would have to watch the sea life from the side. If at all possible, try to book a table in the tunnel as it does make the experience more special. These tables often get booked way in advance, especially for dinner, and you may be required to book drinks pairing with your tasting menu.
Gourmet menu around 125$ per person. 8-Course Zen menu around 210$. Add 75$ per person for wine pairing.

Cuca (Jimbaran)
Fine diningJimbaran, 30 min from UluwatuRead More ↓Cuca is located a few steps away from Jimbaran Beach, just south of Bali's airport, It is roughly a 30 minute ride from either Uluwatu or Seminyak. On arrival you will walk through the large garden to reach the restaurant. We watched the sunset on the beach first before heading to dinner.
Cuca offers a Chef's Tasting Menu at great value. When we visited it consisted of 9 courses with outstanding tapas and desserts. Don't expect traditional Spanish Tapas dishes, the food is very original and based on local Balinese flavors and produce. The town of Jimbaran is known for Bali's largest fresh fish and seafood market, so expect some great seafood dishes to be part of the experience. During our dinner, we started with a scallop dish, had amazing butterfish and there was octopus too. When we visited Cuca again for the second time, we were offered another set of dining options with seven tapas and two desserts.
We believe the restaurant is a great option for a honeymoon. They even offer the "ROMANCE @ CUCA" package (which you can reserve when booking a table on the website). With the romantic package, your dinner will be served on a table with candles and roses. A bit cheesy but we did it (we are running a honeymoon site after all....) and it's all fun, they even had a surprise gift for us in the end!
Chef's Tasting Menu: roughly 65$ pp. Additional romance package roughly 20$/couple for extra flowers and ambiance.

Jimbaran Fish Market
Local favoritesJimbaran, 25 min from UluwatuRead More ↓This might sound like an odd suggestion for a honeymoon, but if you are up for an authentic local lunch experience... The town of Jimbaran just south of the airport hosts the largest fresh fish market in Bali, right next to the beach. You can buy your own fresh fish, shrimps or octopus here - and get some of the local restaurants next to the market to grill them for you for a small fee. Warung Bu Wiwin is our favorite, they will add rice, veggies and sauce to your fish.
If you prefer a slightly more comfortable dining experience, on the same beach in Jimbaran you will find all of the best local fish restaurants in Bali.
