NEW WORLD GRAND BALI RESORT TO OPEN 2017
First New World Hotels & Resorts’ Indonesia Property
New World Hotels & Resorts, a Rosewood Hotel Group brand, has been
appointed by Jakarta-based PT. Mugie Bali Indah to manage New World Grand
Bali Resort, scheduled to open in 2017. As the first New World Hotels & Resorts
property in Indonesia, the collaboration marks a major milestone in extending the
brand’s presence across Asia, adding to existing New World Hotels & Resorts
properties in mainland China, Hong Kong, Vietnam and the Philippines.
Set on 10.8 hectares, the luxury resort will be part of the premiere Pecatu Indah
Resort development located on the southern Bukit Peninsula. Only 15 minutes’
drive from clifftop Uluwatu Temple and 30 minutes’ drive from Ngurah Rai
Badung International Airport, the resort will be built following the site’s natural
slope which is 156 metres above sea level at its highest point. The resort’s
cascading topography will afford ocean views for all accommodations.
World Class Consultants, including WOW Design Studio, Belt Collins
International landscape architects and Hirsch Bedner Associates interior
designers, will create the lavish public spaces, exteriors and accommodations.
Of the 328 guestrooms, the suites and grand suites will have individual decks
and plunge pools. Selected guestrooms, all suites and 85 one to four-bedroom
villa residences will be available for purchase. Those in residences will have
access to an exclusive club and pool.
Taking inspiration from a Balinese mountaintop retreat, tiered gardens will step
down gently in the manner of Bali’s iconic rice paddy terraces. The resort’s
landscape will be cloaked in forest flora, interspersed with meandering pathways,
and indigenous building materials will include an abundance of natural lava rock.
The sound of water will provide the backdrop throughout the property with
waterfalls, pools and streams around every corner.

fountain concept, the adjacent waterpark will offer a “Lazy River,” sandy beach, kids pool,
water slides, forest-themed restaurant and stage performances. Other recreational options
will include a spa, fitness center, the New Kuta Golf Course in the Pecatu Indah compound,
and access to a nearby secluded, cliff-encircled beach.

will include a ballroom of 1,100 square metres and four meeting rooms, as well as a wedding
chapel.
