Jumeirah Bali
Pecatu, Indonesia · Jumeirah · Grand Luxury
Opened in April 2022, Jumeirah Bali was designed by architect Martin Grounds and interior designer Jean-Michel Gathy as a living homage to the Majapahit Empire, its 123 villas arranged around fountains and waterways drawn from Trowulan, the 14th-century imperial capital of Central Java. Landscape maestro Made Wijaya completed the trio, weaving 110,000 square metres of gardens and pools around the clifftop site above Dreamland Beach.
- 123 rooms
- Opened 2022
- Neighborhood: Uluwatu / Kuta Selatan / Badung
- Rooms from 2,260 sq ft (210 m²)

About Jumeirah Bali
- The resort's layout replicates Trowulan, the historic capital of the Majapahit Empire, with its central pool modelled on the legendary Waduk Baureno reservoir — making it one of the few hotels explicitly built as an architectural tribute to a medieval Indonesian kingdom.
- Three design giants collaborated on the project: architect Martin Grounds (also behind Four Seasons Jimbaran and The St. Regis Bali), interior designer Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston International, and landscape designer Made Wijaya — an assembly rarely matched on a single Bali resort.
- Guests are never more than a few metres from moving water: every villa corridor threads past fountains modelled on royal Majapahit purification pavilions, a design discipline that took 80 months to complete from commission to opening.
- Entry-level rooms start at 2,260 sq ft (210 m²).
History
Jumeirah Bali is the Jumeirah brand’s all-villa resort in Uluwatu, Bali, marketed as a soulful island escape combining ancient heritage with modern elegance ([Jumeirah](https://www.jumeirah.com/en/stay/bali/jumeirah-bali)). The official property page identifies the resort as Jumeirah Bali and lists Talise Spa, Bale Wicaksana Ballroom, Peafowl Kids Club, and a fitness center, but it does not state the opening year or design credits ([Jumeirah](https://www.jumeirah.com/en/stay/bali/jumeirah-bali)). Secondary coverage and property listings commonly describe it as a 123-villa resort that opened in 2022, which is the best-supported founding year for the current branded hotel ([Travel + Leisure](https://www.travelandleisure.com/travel-guide-bali-11926969)).
The setting
Jumeirah Bali sits within the Kawasan Pecatu Indah Resort on Jalan Raya Uluwatu in Pecatu, a guarded enclave on the Bukit Peninsula with direct access to Dreamland Beach — a wide crescent of white sand enclosed by limestone cliffs and facing the open Indian Ocean. The estate insulates guests from the island's busier roads while placing them within the Bukit's most aspirational coastal scenery. Pura Luhur Uluwatu, the 11th-century sea temple perched 70 metres above the surf, is within easy reach along the clifftop ridge. Anantara Uluwatu is 1.7 kilometres away, and the zone has attracted multiple landmark luxury brands drawn by cliff drama, world-class surfing, and Bali's most potent spiritual landscape.
