The Land of a Thousand Gods has a thousand more attractions to offer. Let the team at OKSite be your guide as we share the top ten things to do in this getaway location where you couples can get lost in the beauty and each other's eyes. 

1. The Five Star Resort Hotels in Nusa Dua

Though Bali has an abundance of beautiful beaches, Nusa Dua, located on Bali's East Coast, is a gem among them. Nusa Dua has several excellent resort hotels that offer pristine and calm waters amidst the exceptional atmosphere the island is known for. The best part is that the room rates are surprisingly affordable during the off-season between October and March. Whether you rent your own Luxury Honeymooner Villa or book an exclusive night or two in The Mulia, Nusa Dua offers travelers many excellent choices. You can’t go wrong with a romantic getaway in Nusa Dua as most hotels offer couples massages and some of the best cuisine Bali has to offer. Each hotel provides its own unique way of showing Balinese hospitality and creating the perfect honeymoon experience.

Honorable Mention: Ubud also offers pristine resort hotels for honeymooners, such as the Viceroy Bali Resort, which offers stunning views of Ubud's tropical river valley.

2. Couples Massage

Many resort hotels in Bali offer couples massages, so you will have plenty of options if massages are a priority for your honeymoon. Even if the hotel you choose does not offer couples massages, it won’t be difficult to find an outstanding couple’s massage within walking distance. While the more obvious destinations for massage are downtown Denpasar or hotels in Nusa Dua, there are also excellent options available in Canggu, Ubud, and Jimbaran. Balinese massage therapists are skilled, and their exceptional rhythmic techniques are amazing at releasing stress and tension. However, it is not just the body they work on; they also work on your mental and emotional well-being.

3. Sample Balinese Cuisine with a Romantic Dinner Date at Jimbaran Beach

Jimbaran Beach, nestled on Bali's picturesque West Coast, offers a breathtaking setting for a romantic dinner. As the sun sets, the golden sands of this heavenly beach shimmer under its warm glow. Bali, especially this stretch of sand, is known for its affordable but high-quality seafood. There are plenty of choices among dozens of beachfront restaurants along Jimbaran Beach. Beyond seafood, these establishments offer a diverse menu catering to various tastes, including vegan options.

4. Instagram Tour

Capture your most cherished Bali moments with professional photographs. What better way to immortalize your special time with your loved one than a photo at the iconic perfect symmetry of the Lempuyang Temple or against the majestic backdrop of Mount Agung?  This tour offers exceptional value, including stops at the enchanting Tirtagangga Water Palace, where you can relax amidst koi fish on seemingly floating stones, the refreshing Goa Raja Waterfall, and the breathtaking rice terraces as your background as you swing together in unforgettable photos.

5. The Secluded Beaches of Gunung Payung

Despite attracting over three million tourists annually, Bali still manages to offer tranquility. One of these havens is Gunung Payung, a secluded beach on the island's Southeast coast between Nusa Dua and Uluwatu. This relatively underdeveloped stretch of beach provides a welcome respite from the crowds, allowing you and your loved one those precious moments to enjoy the fresh air and soak up the stunning natural beauty in peace. The beaches at Kuta Selatan are another option for those seeking private secluded moments. 

6. Rafting on the Ayung River

For adventurous couples seeking thrills amidst Bali's natural beauty, white water rafting along the Ayung Rivers offers an exhilarating experience. The adrenaline-pumping rapids, combined with the stunning waterfall, lush forest, and friendly, knowledgeable guides, create the perfect bonding moment with your special someone.

7. Escape to Paradise, Bali's Romantic Waterfalls

Bali's geographical beauty is highlighted by its many stunning waterfalls, each nestled within lush forests. Though several tour packages frequent popular waterfalls, there are off-the-beaten-path gems that offer secluded and intimate settings, perfect for moments with your loved one. Explore the Tegenungan Waterfall, Banyumala Twin Waterfalls, Gitgit Waterfall, Leke Leke Waterfall, or Sekumpul Waterfall. Take a refreshing swim together in the pristine waters, or relax and soak in the unique natural surroundings.

8. Enjoy Bali's Dance Culture

Bali's rich culture is celebrated worldwide, particularly its captivating dances. Bali is recognized by UNESCO for its "intangible cultural heritage," and a visit to this island would not be complete without experiencing its mesmerizing performances. From the iconic Barong Dance, featuring a mythical lion-like creature, to the Topeng "Mask Dance" depicting Bali's early history and the breathtaking Kecak Fire Dance performed against the stunning backdrop of Uluwatu's sunset, the choices are endless.

9. Sample Bali's Rich Cuisine in Its Top Restaurants

Indulge in Bali's exquisite cuisine at its world-class restaurants. A delightful and romantic way to experience the island's culinary highlights is through a degustation dinner. While fine dining can be expensive in cities like London, New York, or Kuwait City, Bali offers surprisingly affordable chef's tasting menus. Explore the Koral at the Apurva Kempinski Bali in Nusa Dua, the Room4Dessert nestled amidst the jungle in Ubud, or the Sangsaka in Seminyak - the possibilities for a romantic evening of dining are endless!

10. Enjoy the Sunsets at Bali's Picturesque Temples and West Coast

Bali is adorned with temples that offer breathtaking natural backdrops, including the island's stunning sunsets. Stroll hand-in-hand through the temples lining Bali's Western coast, including the iconic Tanah Lot temple, the Uluwatu Temple perched high above the cliff in Bali's rugged Southwestern Coast, the serene Pura Luhur Bato Bolong with its sacred shape and setting, and the less crowned Jero Kandang Temple near Tanah Lot.
