Bottom line first: Manarai Beach House (part of the Ismaya Group) offers free entry and boasts Nusa Dua’s white sand beach and twin blue pools; you only need to meet the ‘Minimum Spend’ if you want the double sunbeds (Daybed) closest to the pool or beach—grab some friends to split the food and drinks to easily hit the mark. Perfect for those who love a luxurious, laid-back vibe and want to avoid the rowdy party scene of Kuta or Canggu.

If you’re planning a Bali trip and looking for a spot that’s both Instagram-worthy with top-notch food, and perfect for lounging all day, just save this place to your list right now!

🌴 Stunning Twin Pools ✕ Dreamy Jellyfish Sea

The moment you step into Manarai, you can’t help but let out a ‘wow’! It’s a creation from the renowned dining group Ismaya, with aesthetics dialed up to the max. The biggest draw here is the two crystal-clear blue pools, directly fronting Nusa Dua’s immaculate white sand beach and gradient blue sea.

• Daytime: Slip into your best bikini or board shorts, order a cocktail, and soak up the sun on a daybed—every snap looks like a supermodel shot.
• Evening: As the sunset paints the sky in pink and purple, the music and lighting shift, and the whole vibe reaches peak romance—absolutely enchanting!

🍹 More Than Just Good Looks! The Food and Cocktails Are Top-Notch

Many beach clubs often feel like ‘just a photo spot with mediocre food,’ but Manarai completely shatters that myth!

They serve very authentic Indonesian cuisine alongside refined Western dishes. Highly recommended are their Seafood Platter and the tropical Signature Cocktails. Sitting by the pool, feeling the sea breeze while sipping a chilled Mojito—this is what true Bali vacation vibes are all about~

💡 Insider Tips

📌 Editor’s Personal Advice: While there’s no entrance fee to visit, if you want to snag the super comfy Daybed closest to the pool or beach, there’s usually a Minimum Spend requirement. I’d suggest going with friends to split the cost—order a few dishes and drinks, and you’ll easily hit the minimum. You can then lounge there all day long—totally worth it!
