Jimbaran Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels

subdistrict in Badung Regency, Bali, Indonesia

About Jimbaran

Jimbaran is just south of the airport andKuta. It used to be a backwater: just a tiny fishing village with a daily market. Everything started to change in the 1980s and Jimbaran is now home to several world-class 5-star beach resorts, and a few more moderate mid-market hotels. There is however little in the way of budget accommodation and there are also many high-end villas in this area, particularly on the ridges of high ground above Jimbaran Bay. This has resulted in monikers such as the "Beverly Hills of Bali" or "Millionaire's Row". The bay has a pleasant white sand beach and is very safe for swimming. The three clusters of grilled seafood restaurants on the beach are a major tourist draw in the evenings, as is the truly stunning sunset. Jimbaran is also home to a Norwegian university
