Come enjoy the tranquil shores of Sanur’s sunrise beach, where the newly reimagined Bali Beach Hotel stands as a testament to Bali’s rich history and its evolution into a premier destination for travelers seeking a unique health and wellness experience. Located on-campus here at The Sanur, the hotel seamlessly blends luxury accommodations with a commitment to health and well-being.

The Legacy of Bali Beach Hotel

The story of the Bali Beach Hotel is deeply intertwined with Indonesia’s post-independence aspirations. In the late 1950s, President Soekarno envisioned transforming Indonesia into a global tourism hub. To realize this dream, he negotiated war reparations from Japan, securing funds to construct several luxury hotels, including the Bali Beach Hotel. Construction commenced in 1962, and by 1966, the hotel opened its doors as the first five-star establishment in Bali, marking a significant milestone in the island’s tourism industry.

The hotel’s original design featured a ten-story structure, making it the tallest building on the island— a distinction it maintains due to regulations limiting building heights to preserve Bali’s cultural landscape. Over the years, the Bali Beach Hotel has witnessed and adapted to the dynamic shifts in Bali’s tourism scene, all while preserving its historical essence. 

In 1993, the hotel underwent extensive renovations and was reborn as The Grand Bali Beach. Further transformations led to its current identity as the Bali Beach Hotel, now managed by Injourney Hospitality, a subsidiary of Indonesia’s state-owned enterprises- underscoring the government’s commitment to its vision of The Sanur being a premier health and wellness destination.

Today, the Bali Beach Hotel offers guests an exquisite blend of modern amenities and traditional Balinese charm. Its accommodations range from elegantly appointed rooms to luxurious suites, each thoughtfully designed to provide comfort and serenity.
