Alila Villas Uluwatu
Number of people: 2-150
Wow factor
Evn on an island full of photogenic wedding venues, Alila Villas Uluwatu offers something exceptional: a dramatic cliff-hugging locale with 180-degree views of the Indian Ocean.
Need to know
There are a number of wedding venues around the grounds, but the cabana that overhangs the cliff by the pool is the most spectacular. Others include the open-air terrace above the resort, known as the Hilltop, with views of the Bukit peninsula, hotel and ocean, and the Look-out, a sheltered terrace within the resort. The bride and groom can invite up to 150 of their dearly beloved or opt to say their vows with no audience at all. (Alila Villas Uluwatu can accommodate a total of 124 people overnight, but there are other resorts close by for any extra guests.) With a dedicated wedding and events planner located here, all the details will be taken care of, from flowers to special menus plus transport, entertainment and legal assistance in filing paperwork with the necessary Indonesian authorities.
Inspiration
Think intimate. This is not the type of place where marquees, stages and fireworks fit with the environment. After all, the landscape is dramatic enough without any added extras.
