 Alila
Manggis Bali Resort is One of Bali's best kept secrets, Alila Manggis
(formerly known as The Serai Manggis) is a secluded, stylish resort
located on a tranquil beach in Manggis, East Bali. Set amidst a coconut
grove, the resort is nestled between the sea and the majestic Mount
Agung, Bali's most sacred mountain.
 All
rooms and suites face the ocean with clear views across the straits
to Nusa Penida. A contemporary interpretation of traditional Balinese
architecture is artfully combined with modern amenities to create a
relaxed environment in harmony with its natural surroundings.
Alila Manggis is located about 75 kilometers from the Ngurah Rai International
Airport, or about two hours drive, Manggis is an area between Padang
Bai Harbor and Candidasa.
Dining
Set in a traditional Balinese pavilion on a lotus pond, The Restaurant
serves both a contemporary menu of signature dishes and a collection
of Indonesian and Balinese favorites. The Restaurant's elegant and relaxed
setting overlooks the resort's beautifully landscaped grounds and the
ocean. Poolside and garden dining is available at Alila Manggis. Set
beneath the tranquil coconut grove, the pool and extensive lawns are
just a step away from the beach. Adjacent to the spacious reception
area, the Lobby Lounge serves a tempting array of refreshing drinks
and cocktails.
Cooking School
Alila Manggis’ Cooking School is a unique course conducted
over a period of five days. It focuses on Indonesian but essentially
Balinese food. The format for the school is such that participants spend
half the day in the kitchen and the other half exploring Bali from a
culinary and cultural point of view. Participants learn how to make
sambal, classic satay, Balinese fish dishes, curries and traditional
sweets. Alila Manggis' Cooking School offers three programs of half-day,
two days or five days duration. There are seven 5-Day Programs and twenty-two
2-Day Programs available for 2003. All programs, including a half-day
course, can be made available upon request. Certain restrictions apply.
Please enquire directly with the hotel.
FACILITIES
Swimming Pool
Alila Manggis' swimming pool is a central feature of the resort and
is designed as an unusual inverted pyramid. This creates shallow waters
around the edges and deep water in the middle. Set in landscaped gardens
under swaying coconut palms, it provides the perfect place to lay back
and enjoy the resort's peaceful, sunny environment.

The Mandara Spa offers a uniquely relaxing experience featuring traditional
Indonesian and Balinese treatments from facials to aromatherapy massage.
