Renaissance Bali Nusa Dua Resort

Opened in late 2021/early 2022, the Renaissance Bali Nusa Dua Resort is a roughly 307-room, design-driven resort perched on a hillside just outside the gated ITDC Nusa Dua enclave, on Jalan Siligita. It holds a 4.0/5 rating on TripAdvisor (ranked around #15 of 55 Nusa Dua hotels). Interiors by P49 Deesign draw on Balinese theatre and dance, giving rooms an eccentric, almost W-hotel character with soaking tubs, balconies, and bold color. Independent reviewers consistently praise the four distinct pools (the social Atomic 17, an artsy Jungle Pool, a long lap pool, and a kids pool), an exceptional Backstage breakfast buffet, the Lion X Chinese restaurant, a strong spa and gym, and warm, attentive service that skews family-friendly. The most repeated caveat is that this is not a beachfront hotel: it sits on a hill and runs a complimentary hourly shuttle to a shared beach club on Nusa Dua Beach, which some find underwhelming versus true beachfront rivals. A few guests also note the somewhat desolate walk from the gate to the main road and occasional inconsistency in rooms or service. Overall it reads as a well-rounded, good-value large resort.
