INDONESIA: INDULGENT ISLES
UBUD | KOMODO | SUMBA | JIMBARAN | SEMINYAK
Stepping outside of your comfort zone tends to be taken a little too literally in the world of travel; we’d encourage expanding your horizons in extravagance across the Indonesian archipelago.
Adventure needs an element of luxury
A firm favourite for travelling the Far East, the islands of Indonesia are an eclectic entwining of nature and culture. Though all are united by a spiritual serenity, Bali is often the poster island, its temples and rice paddies taking centre stage.
In this itinerary however, let us also guide you beyond Bali, to the lesser-known islands you’ll come to know and love. Fear not, there’ll be no backpacking here – it’s just not our thing – instead, find luxury wherever you wander.
Where you'll be going...
Get to know where you'll be exploring across Indonesia, from artful Ubud to the timeless traditions of Sumba.
UBUD, BALI
DAY 1-4
A city of temples swathed in jungle greens, the beating heart of Bali is nothing short of captivating in its cultural offerings. Traditional art abounds in its galleries and craft shops, until vibrant nightlife livens evenings with concerts and Kecak Fire and Dance performances.
KOMODO, INDONESIA
DAY 5-9
Famous for its dragons, Komodo is part of the East Nusa Tenggara island group (along with Sumba). A slow travel saviour, visitors are compelled to sit back and cruise between the islands at a leisurely pace. Diving the red coral reefs and lounging on pink sands one day and swimming between two oceans the next.
SUMBA, INDONESIA
DAY 10-14
Fondly bestowed the name the 'forgotten island', Sumba has sat contentedly in Bali's shadow for a long time. Twice the size of the Land of the Gods, one of the oldest cultures in the area is deeply rooted here, still evident in the traditional peaked thatched houses of the villages and the adoration of the island's sacred horses.
JIMBARAN, BALI
DAY 15-17
A jet set favourite of beach destinations, this once small fishing village is the place to be on Bali. High-end boutiques beckon for a spot of retail therapy, and soft white sands make for a subdued spot of sunbathing. Keeping true to its past, the catch of the day couldn’t be fresher in its seafront restaurants too.
SEMINYAK, BALI
DAY 18-19
Sophisticated Seminyak strikes the balance between a tranquil retreat and an upbeat atmosphere. Days spent here weave between stylish restaurants and sumptuous spas, before beach clubs command the evening attention of this Balinese village.

MANDAPA, A RITZ-CARLTON RESERVE
UBUD, BALI

Centred on a working rice paddy field with its own century-old Hindu temple, this one-of-a-kind boutique resort evokes your sense of place in Ubud, Bali’s healing centre.
VELA SAILING YACHT
KOMODO, INDONESIA
DAY 5-9
Impressive canvas sails billow in the wind on this luxury yacht, making everyone onboard feel like an intrepid explorer – but with bountiful luxuries to hand.
NIHI SUMBA
SUMBA, INDONESIA
DAY 10-14
Once an enterprise by two avid surfers who washed up on these shores in 1988, it’s the community, wildlife and an overall irrefutable seduction that has shaped this conservational juggernaut.
RAFFLES BALI
JIMBARAN, BALI
DAY 15-17
A tranquil garden of tropical botanicals unwinding toward the Indian Ocean; this soulful sojourn pairs an authentic Indonesian influence with the Raffles style and service that’s always a cut above the rest.
THE LEGIAN BALI
SEMINYAK, BALI
DAY 18-19
Surrounded by tropical gardens and set right beside the Indian Ocean on Seminyak Beach, the Legian remains one of Bali’s most sought after resorts.
