Sea la Vie

Sea La Vie Resort sits right on the western coast of Nusa Penida, overlooking Toya Pakeh harbor and giving you front-row seats to Mount Agung across the water in Bali. This 4-star boutique resort is way different from your typical Bali beach hotel - it's perched on dramatic cliffs with 22 rooms spread across bungalows and suites, each with private balconies facing the ocean. The property feels more like a luxury hideaway than a regular resort, especially with that famous infinity pool that literally seems to drop into the ocean.

You're about 15-20 minutes by scooter or car from the main Toya Pakeh harbor, which makes it super convenient but still peaceful. The resort sits at sea level on the cliff edge, so temperatures stay comfortable around 26-28°C (79-82°F) during the day with ocean breezes keeping things cool. Unlike the more crowded eastern areas around Diamond Beach, this western location gives you stunning sunset views and way fewer tourists crowding your photos. The whole vibe here is upscale but relaxed - think boutique resort vibes with that authentic Nusa Penida adventure spirit.
