Most of the paddy fields are located in one area so you can witness them from most of the hotels and Alila Villas Uluwatu is famous for allowing tourists to explore these paddy fields as this is an experience that is completely new for non-Asians.
White sandy beaches outlined with turquoise blue waters lined up with palm trees is the picturesque view you get to witness when you visit Diamond Beach. If you wish to experience peace and quiet Diamond Beach is the place to head to.
A must-do-visit when in Bali as the Gili island is aptly named Paradise Gili Air and you cannot deny it when you witness it.
