Seminyak is exquisite. Adorned with beaches, temples and more there is so much to see, do and experience here. But if you have just 24 hours in this paradise, this is how you should spend it!
Nothing beats the feeling of a nice big villa with its very own private pool and that too in Seminyak, the feeling is exquisite. With a backdrop of perfection now you can relish every second in this picture perfect paradise and not worry too much about the world outside. Remember you just have 24 hours and you are in paradise! So make the most of it. Consider staying at a Bali spa resort like Anantara Seminyak Bali Resort which is ideally located.
If you love your drinks you simply cannot miss out on the Seminyak Beer. It may not be as good as some other parts of the world but the tropical touch gives it quite the unique taste. After all Seminyak is scorching hot and you need the icy cold goodness to wash the heat away. Another perfect treat to beat the heat of Seminyak is having some pineapple on the beach. If you spot a lady walking around with a basket of fruit on her head, give her a little wave and she'll carve you up a fresh stick of pineapple to devour under the sun. Nothing beats a refreshing Bintang and 'piney' on a hot summer's day in Bali.
Even if it is just 24 hours you just cannot leave Bali without getting a good dose of the shopping this place has in store because we all know that Bali is the hub for great shopping. Be it reasonably priced jewellery, unique home-ware, leather shoes and bags – if you want the rock bottom prices you should come to Bali. For your quick market fix, Seminyak Square is where you should head to.
After relishing in every amazing facility that your hotel has to offer, it is time to head to Cocoon. The Cocoon is an ultra-modern bar that is perfectly located on Seminyak's main beach and is known for its stunning setting. To perfect your experience here have a cocktail at this bar when the sun is making its way down. Watching the sun paint a myriad of colours on Seminyak's glorious canvas of a sky combined with a refreshing beverage does wonders to your soul; this experience is nothing short of pure bliss.
Now there is nothing like a good night clubbing in Seminyak. So that's where you should head to at dinner time; Potato Head Beach Club. This hip and happening beach club is a favourite among many and is the party paradise in Seminyak. To go there get dropped off at the security gates and make your way down the never-ending driveway until you reach a Coliseum-like building covered in vintage timber windows and you'll find yourself face-to-face with Potato Head. Although it is known more for its clubbing perks, it actually has a scrumptious array of dishes. Try their chilli prawns and you would feel certain that you have died and gone to heaven!
