Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE: HOT) and PT Tiara Raya Bali International today announced the debut of Le M\u00e9ridien Bali Jimbaran, the latest newly built Le M\u00e9ridien resort to open during a year of substantial growth for the Paris-born brand. Le M\u00e9ridien Bali Jimbaran, combines chic, modern design with a passion for the arts, culture and creative cuisine to offer travellers an enriching escape on Bali, Indonesia’s famed Island of the Gods.<\/p>\n

“Le M\u00e9ridien is experiencing a year of significant growth,” said Brian Povinelli, Global Brand Leader, Le M\u00e9ridien and Westin. “With a refined Le M\u00e9ridien brand positioning focused on unlocking the destination and our best portfolio and performance levels ever, we are proud to return to Bali in such an ideal setting as the culturally-rich Jimbaran area.” <\/p>\n

“We are excited about our partnership with Starwood Hotels & Resorts to officially launch Le M\u00e9ridien Bali Jimbaran,” said Richard Wiriahardja, Owner of PT Tiara Raya Bali International. “We took Le M\u00e9ridien brand’s vision of creativity to heart: arts in different mediums, designer furniture with stories to be told, and details in everyday objects that induce curiosity. \u00a0We are pleased to welcome guests to explore our resort and the Jimbaran area.”<\/p>\n

Complementing its idyllic location, Le M\u00e9ridien Bali Jimbaran juxtaposes rich elements of traditional Jimbaran heritage with sleek contemporary elements, inspiring art, and a relaxed, understated style. The resort features the newly developed Le M\u00e9ridien Hub experience, which re-interprets the traditional lobby into a social gathering place for creative people to converse, debate and exchange views.<\/p>\n

Le M\u00e9ridien Bali Jimbaran offers four distinct dining venues in a three-story complex, including the signature restaurant Bamboo Chic, featuring Pan-Asian flavours fused with an authentic Balinese palate and made with organic ingredients sourced from the local Bedugul Mountain area; Smoqee Lounge & Sky Bar with hand-crafted cocktails, unparalleled sunset views, and soothing tunes from resident DJs; Latitude 8, offering coffee by day and wines and tapas by night in the hotel’s Hub; and WALA, an casual spot for handcrafted gelato and perfect cups of coffee.<\/p>\n

Surrounded by serene and refreshing water features, the hotel’s 118 guest rooms and suites feature modern batik motifs and striking liquid art imagery by German artist Markus Reugels. \u00a0Ground floor guest rooms open directly onto a uniquely designed 1,300 square meter organic form saltwater lagoon pool.<\/p>\n

Le M\u00e9ridien Bali Jimbaran provides the perfect backdrop for a range of events, from weddings to corporate functions. Located on the rooftop level, the glass encased Celebration Pavilion and Bale Banjar Ballroom affords panoramic views of Jimbaran Bay and its famous sunsets. A modern conference center provides 600 square meters of multi-purpose space, state-of-the-art audio-visual technology, a business center, and creative event staff.<\/p>\n

Other amenities include Serenity, a rejuvenation spa with six ‘Experience’ treatment rooms and a lounge; a well-equipped fitness center with a variety of health programs; and J Kids Club that keeps young guests engaged with an array of activities, discovery programs, and a dedicated outdoor children’s pool.<\/p>\n

Located on the southwest coastline of Bali, Le M\u00e9ridien Bali Jimbaran is set by the pristine white sands of Jimbaran Bay, a secluded, tranquil locale that once housed a small fishing village. The famous Jimbaran Bay transforms itself at night as the world famous beach-side cafes cook up fresh seafood. A short drive from Denpasar International Airport, the hotel is situated near many of the island’s natural and cultural attractions, including the majestic Pura Uluwatu, one of Bali’s most sacred temples.<\/p>\n
