We Love
- The villas — 25 of them, butler-serviced and set in flowering tropical gardens, most with a private pool, blending traditional Balinese design with contemporary comfort.
- The kulkul tower — the resort is built around an ancient Balinese signal tower, once used to summon villagers, now standing by the main pool as the heart of the grounds.
- The value — among the more affordable all-villa options in Sanur, butler service and a private pool included, which makes it a strong romantic base without the top-tier price.
- The dining — Jahe, the open-air garden restaurant, and the Island of the Gods signature dinner served in a private gazebo, both leaning on authentic Balinese cooking.
- The beach — the resort is set back in its gardens rather than on the sand, but runs a free shuttle to its own reserved beach seating a few minutes away.

Origins
The Pavilions Bali sits in the heart of Sanur, on the main Jalan Danau Tamblingan strip, though you would not know it from inside: the resort is set back behind a bamboo-lined drive, its entrance easy to miss, opening onto flowering gardens that feel a good deal quieter than the street outside. It has grown over the years to 25 villas, but has kept the traditional Balinese village character it was built around.
That character has a literal centre. The resort was laid out around an ancient kulkul tower — the Balinese wooden signal drum, raised on a tower, that villages once used to call people together for news, ceremonies and gatherings. It still stands by the main pool, and the village-compound logic of the place radiates out from it: villas in walled gardens, connected by paths, on an intimate scale. The villas are butler-serviced, most with a private pool, and mix Balinese artwork and teak with contemporary comfort.
It is part of The Pavilions, a small international group with boutique-scale properties in Amsterdam, Phuket and beyond, but the Bali property reads as its own place rather than a chain hotel. Dining is at Jahe, the open-air garden restaurant, where the Island of the Gods signature dinner — served in a private gazebo — is the highlight; there is a spa, a pool and yoga, and a free shuttle runs guests the few minutes to Sanur's beach, where seating is reserved for them. Romantic by temperament and gentler on the wallet than Sanur's luxury villa resorts, it is pitched squarely at couples.
Top Secret
The kulkul tower by the main pool is not decorative. The kulkul is a hollowed wooden slit-drum, struck to carry sound across a village, and Bali's communities have used them for centuries to summon people for everything from ceremonies to emergencies. The Pavilions was built around this one, which is why the resort has the feel of a village compound gathered around its old meeting point — because, in a sense, that is exactly what it is.
The Review
The Pavilions Bali is the more affordable of the two all-villa resorts we list in Sanur, and it occupies a clear lane: romantic, intimate and built around genuine Balinese character, at a price well below the town's luxury villa names. Where Kayumanis Sanur is smaller and family-minded, the Pavilions is larger at 25 villas, couples-focused, and centred on an ancient kulkul tower that gives the grounds a real village-compound feel.
The villas are butler-serviced and set in flowering gardens, most with a private pool, mixing Balinese artwork and teak with contemporary comfort; little touches like the guest's name set at the villa entrance land well. Dining at Jahe, the open-air garden restaurant, is a strength; the Island of the Gods signature dinner in a private gazebo especially, and there is a spa, yoga and a pool alongside.
The honest notes are location and beach. This is central Sanur, set back behind a bamboo drive so it feels private despite the address, but it is not beachfront — a free shuttle runs the few minutes to reserved beach seating. For couples who want an all-villa Sanur stay with butler service, private-pool comfort and real Balinese character, without paying top-tier rates, The Pavilions Bali is among the best-value options in this part of Bali.
