Bali Gay Villas

The Seiryu offers a sense of refined Japanese-style luxury combined with Balinese hospitality.

Think Zen minimalism but with generous goodies such as LCD TV, jacuzzi, private pool, gazebo daybed, free WiFi and full kitchen. There is a private beach club for hotel guests.

Located in a quieter part of Seminyak, close to the beach and a short walk from Bali Joe gay bar, Mixwell as well as Double 66 Beach.

This gay-friendly resort offers excellent value for money and great location, close to the Batu Belig gay beach area. Bonita gay massage spa is just across the road, and the main gay bars are about 15 minutes away by taxi.

Comfortably furnished and set within beautifully mature gardens, each air-conditioned villa features an open-air bathroom with a hot tub and shower, LCD TV, WiFi and a small kitchenette.

The resort has a large swimming pool, a poolside bar and restaurant that serves international dishes, although there is a huge choice of great restaurants within walking distance.

The Elysian offers some of the best resort-based private villas in Seminyak. Each of the 14 villas has an 8-metre pool, state-of-the-art entertainment system with Apple TV, iPod and BOSE sound dock.

The beach is just moments from your villa, or you can relax in one of the cabanas by the main pool. The hotel offers a choice of great restaurants (including 24-hour in-villa dining), or you can try one of the many local restaurants.

The gay-popular KU DE TA is just a few minutes' walk away, and the gay bars are a bit further. Expect great service and the warmest of welcomes.

Gay-owned Villa Semana offers 10 beautifully appointed villas with balcony or terrace, set in a peaceful surrounding, along with modern facilities, air conditioning, DVD/CD player, refrigerator, coffee maker, mosquito net, etc.

The resort has a nice infinity-edge pool, spa, and a restaurant that serves Thai fusion food. Located amidst rice fields and a river, secluded from the hustle of the city, yet only about 10 minutes from the city centre.
