13 Airbnb rentals for a dream vacation in Bali

Experience an exceptional vacation on the other side of the world with a luxury Airbnb rental in Bali.

Bali is an island in southern Indonesia, between the islands of Java and Lombok. It is more than 13,000 kilometers from Paris, or almost 18 hours by air. This is the price you pay to come and admire sumptuous wooded volcanic mountains, bask on fine sandy beaches or dive amidst mirific coral reefs.

The island is home to world-famous religious sites such as the Uluwatu temple. It also boasts dynamic seaside resorts such as Kuta, Seminyak and Sanur. Looking for the best possible accommodation on the island? Our team has unearthed the luxury Airbnb rentals in Bali that will turn your vacation into an extraordinary interlude. We’re off!

Let’s start our selection of luxury Airbnb rentals in Bali with this exceptional mansion. This oversized villa has four large bedrooms that can accommodate sixteen guests. They will share the infinity pool overlooking rice paddies and rainforest.

Built in a luxurious yet traditional style next to a small village, the rental provides access to a multitude of services, including a massage service. TheUbud market, the artistic village of Penestanan and the monkey forest are just a few minutes away. Let’s talk about the monkeys: even more widespread than cats on this sublime island, they are not aggressive… but mischievous and very thieving!

2. Luxury villa near Canggu

This remarkable villa has six bedrooms that can accommodate a maximum of thirteen guests. The luxury Airbnb rental in Bali we present here offers unrivalled comfort. A profusion of luxury amenities will surprise even the most discerning traveler.

The exceptional location of this luxurious residence, under the canopy of tropical vines, is one of its key assets. A tropical river flows below: all around, rice paddies give the place a Zen feel.

Admire the surroundings from the poolside with a drink before moving on to the open-air dining table. Here, you can prepare emblematic Indonesian dishes such as bubur ayam, nasi goreng or tempeh. Beware of the chili pepper, prized by local gourmets and cooks, which may surprise sensitive palates…

Smaller than its predecessors, but still with three large bedrooms, this Balinese villa has plenty of character. The meticulous decor cleverly combines modern fittings with traditional furniture. Wooden elements are mostly hand-carved by local craftsmen.

The pool temperature rarely falls below 30°C, so you can spend entire afternoons there. If you prefer the sea, take a trip to the Bukit peninsula. The beaches of Green Bowl, Padang Padang, Bingin and Jimbaran attract tourists from all over the world.
