HighEnd had the opportunity to experience a spot of serenity and excitement in Uluwatu where one might not think to look: on its jagged, rocky cliffside.

The cliff-fringed peninsula of Uluwatu makes for a culture-packed itinerary with the island’s iconic temples, sunset kecak dance, and the jaw-dropping Garuda Wisnu Kencana sculpture, but it is also a destination for a perfectly balanced nuance of relaxation and adventure.

For an elevated beach club experience, the nearby ULU CLIFFHOUSE is a cliffside oasis with breathtaking views. ULU CLIFFHOUSE makes it simply too easy to let time just indulgently fly by with their scenic 25m infinity pool, cozy sunbeds, and delectable choices at the open air restaurant as well as the Cliff Bar. For an unparalleled view of the surrounding cliffs and ocean, climb down the winding stairway to the lower Ocean Deck, where more cozy seats and a bar perching on the cliffs await to accommodate your leisure time.

World-class food and drinks served at ULU CLIFFHOUSE is the brainchild of renowned Peruvian Chef Diego Muñoz and uses the best ingredients. The fruits and vegetables are freshly sourced from a local supplier from Tabanan. ULU’s crudité board won’t specifically say what vegetables will be used during the week as it depends on the current freshest, sweetest produce available for the week. Seafood uses a sea-to-table concept—they are caught daily in local waters and brought directly to the kitchen to ensure the freshest possible fish to cook for the day.

The mouth-watering culinary offerings of ULU CLIFFHOUSE is laidback in style, but ambitious in flavor and presentation. Light bites are truly the star of the menu; the perfect accompaniment to your ocean-side unwinding. Fried calamari ceviche, Ulu Burger and Lamb Skewers are on the Best Selling list for food, while the cocktails Son of a Beach, Smoked Pineapple Margarita and Cliff Colada makes the list for drinks. The Chef highly recommends Crab Hush Puppies, Red Snapper Tiradito, and Braised Octopus, downed with Cucumber Number, White Sangria, Cliff Colada.
