Here at the pinnacle of Four Seasons Resort Bali at Sayan, the sight of the tree-shrouded valley below leaves you speechless. Good call on the Sayan Villa, a secluded 4,842 sq. ft. space with terraces and a patio garden flanking its private pool. Inside, handmade Indonesian teak furniture - including a dining table for six - welcomes you to Bali. Italian fixtures crown the double-vanity bathroom, but in this beautiful setting you're partial to the outdoor shower.
And so it goes at 60-room-and-suite Four Seasons Resort Bali at Sayan, which takes every opportunity to get you close to nature. Found next to the rushing Ayung River, the Balinese-style spa has three thatch-roofed couples' villas joined to outdoor bathing pavilions. Go for the Lulur Sayan, an aromatic body scrub and soak followed by a traditional island massage.
For more valley views, Bali up to teak Jati Bar. The river is spectacular from a gorge-side table at Ayung Terrace, home to some fine Balinese cooking.
