Nusa Dua

Description

These white sand beaches were quite wild some time ago and most of the buildings were ordinary wooden houses surrounded by palm trees. Today you can find the largest number of five-star hotels, luxury villas and houses in Nusa Dua which can only be compared with those that you saw in movies.

Nusa Dua region is divided into two parts: the resort area and the territory where Bali residents live. The hearts of travelers beat faster in the tourist area full of hotels with green parks and bright green vegetation, meditative bicycle rides along the coast with green lawns, luxurious trees with jumping squirrels right on the beach and the cleanest storming ocean. Ordinary tourists can go into the resort area and all beaches are accessible to everyone so you can order a tropical cocktail at any bar and enjoy the sun.

The resort has an atmosphere of "barefoot luxury", you can spend all day in shorts and a bikini. There is no need to worry about clean feet: there is a tap with water to wash at the entrance to any building. The resort has a special dress code where there is a tradition to dress up for dinner so you should put a long beautiful dress and smart trousers into your suitcase.
