Whether you want to hit the waves, or just relax with a cool drink, this idyllic beach provides the perfect ocean-front experience.

Double Six Beach lies along the front of the popular Seminyak village, on the west coast of Bali. The pristine white sands are perfect for relaxing under the sun, or join the party once the sun goes down as the beach-front bars and clubs fill up.

This beach is known to be quieter than the neighbouring Kuta Beach to the south, but you will still find plenty of options to keep you entertained. Get here early for a tranquil view over the deep blue Indian Ocean, or head out along the sand for an invigorating morning jog. For an extra-special adventure, you can hire a horse and guide, and ride the length of the beach on horseback.

The soft sand is perfect if you want to stretch out and top up your tan, and the relatively shallow sea is perfect for swimming and snorkelling. There are plenty of beach shacks hiring out sun loungers and selling snacks and refreshments, including the local speciality beer Bintang. From time to time, you will be approached by itinerant vendors, but don’t feel under obligation to make any purchases.

As the day progresses, you’ll see soccer and beach volleyball matches starting up along the beach. Surfing is also hugely popular along this stretch of coast. You can book lessons at one of the two surf schools in the area, or just hire a board and hit the waves on your own.

Back from the beach, you’ll find that the village of Seminyak is full of boutiques and art galleries, as well as gourmet restaurants. You can easily spend a few hours exploring this popular tourist destination. Alternatively, for a traditional Balinese experience, head to the 15th century Petitenget Temple to the north, famous for its beach-front ceremonies.

Head back to the beach at the day draws to an end, grab a cocktail and watch the spectacular sight of the sun setting into the ocean.

Double Six Beach is approximately 30 minutes by car from Denpasar Airport, and 15 minutes from Kuta. The climate in Bali is at its best in the cooler dry season between May and October.

10/10 Exceptional! (1 review)

Had a wonderful stay at this villa. The property was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with a relaxing atmosphere that made it feel like a home away from home. The space was perfect for a holiday getaway, and the surroundings were peaceful. The host was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Would definitely recommend and hope to return again.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (18 reviews)

We had a wonderful 9 nights at the Sebali Resort. The food was excellent throughout our stay with great menu choices for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The spa was also amazing and we had a couple of great full body massages by the experienced team. Srina, you have magic hands!! All the staff are so polite and accommodating, they are well trained and most speak English very well. There were only two things that weren’t great but one was not the fault of the hotel. The adjacent resort, the Kayon, was expanding and renovating. When you headed to either of the restaurants for meals you could see and hear all the machinery and tools being used. It ruined the atmosphere but it became amusing for my husband and I to watch the building practices. We thankfully couldn’t hear any of the construction work from our room, so we had a very peaceful stay and enjoyed listening to the sound of the waterfall as we fell asleep or relaxing by our pool. The only other issue for us was the bed. It was very hard, but Patek from housekeeping did his best to add an extra layer of softness for us. We still had a wonderful time and would return to the property, but would suggest the management invest in some new mattresses and maybe some sun cover by the private pools.
