Bringing its signature take on luxury to Indonesia, Kempinski plans to unveil The Apurva Kempinski Bali in the last quarter of 2018. With an enviable location on Nusa Dua cliff, above the beaches of southern Bali, the hotel design team is comprised of award-winning architect Budiman Hendropurnomo of Denton Corker Marshall, and interior designer Rudy Dodo of Trivium Design Group. Traditional Balinese architecture reigns with an interior design dictated by Indonesian aesthetics and materials.
“We are excited to welcome The Apurva Kempinski Bali and add this iconic property to our hotel portfolio,” notes Michael Henssler, chief operating officer Asia, Kempinski Hotels, and member of the Management Board. “From its unique architecture to artfully curated interior design, The Apurva Kempinski Bali will present itself as a majestic open-air theatre in which the guests will have the opportunity to experience the wonders of this unique island.”

In Sanskrit, the word apurva translates to “unique and magnificent.” Property highlights include 475 sumptuous guestrooms, suites and villas; five dining venues; and the Cigar & Shisha Lounge. Along with two pools (one dedicated to children) and a family club, facilities include a spa and fitness center positioned to make the most of the ocean views. Private plunge pools feature in 60 percent of the accommodations, while furnishings are the result of extensive research and partnerships with local artisans.
