Alila Villas Uluwatu

This clifftop jigsaw puzzle of striking Modernist architecture houses 65 villas on the southern tip of Bali. Each has its own pool and cabana, but guests also gather at the 50-metre pool with views across the ocean, at the yoga pavilion and in the two restaurants. Each villa, with one to three bedrooms, has a butler who’s also trained as a babysitter.
