Hilton Bali beach lounge opening news: As an expansion of its prestigious collection of dining venues the Nusa Dua 27-acre cliff side retreat has launched a new adults-only seaside lounge and bar inspired by the timeless allure of the Mediterranean. Elara Seaside Lounge and Bar completes Hilton Bali Resort‘s comprehensive renovation, which also includes refreshed accommodations, a vibrant kids’ club and versatile event spaces.

Perched on a cliff overlooking the Indian Ocean, Elara invites guests to escape to a world of sun-kissed shores where time stands still. The menu features classic Mediterranean dishes highlighting the region’s renowned focus on wellness and nutritious, flavourful cuisine. Guests can look forward to such healthful dishes as 12-hour marinated grilled lamb rack with chimichurri, chickpeas, crumble, tahini and yoghourt purée; cured salmon crudo accompanied by pickled onions, capers, labneh and extra virgin olive oil, as well as roasted figs with stracciatella, topped with pomegranate and blueberries.

Guests can soak in the Balinese sunshine as they sip on handcrafted cocktails in the breezy al-fresco areas, encompassing spacious cabanas and a temperature-controlled swimming pool overlooking the ocean. Those looking for a more intimate dining experience can enjoy their meals indoors, where the restaurant’s interiors centre on an olive tree, which symbolises renewal and rejuvenation, and comprise light wood and natural fabrics to recreate Greece’s effortless idyll.

“We are thrilled to introduce Elara, our new seaside lounge and bar, as the flourishing touch to Hilton Bali’s transformation,” said GM Amit Sakhrani. “Elara is more than just a dining venue, it is a destination where our guests can immerse themselves in the timeless charm of the Mediterranean, right here in Nusa Dua. This exciting new concept is a cornerstone of our ongoing commitment to providing exceptional experiences for couples and solo travellers. With its breathtaking cliffside views, a thoughtfully crafted menu and serene atmosphere, Elara offers a truly unique experience that captures the essence of both Balinese and Mediterranean hospitality.”

In addition to Elara, Hilton Bali Resort boasts an array of amenities perfect for families and wellness enthusiasts. Four interconnected swimming pools, a thrilling 30-metre water slide and a fully equipped gym ensure endless fun and recreation for varying groups of guests. Eight semi-open spa villas offer blissful pampering, while five diverse dining options, including a deli serving premium Balinese coffee throughout the day, cater to every palate. Situated near the tranquil Sawangan, the resort provides an idyllic base for exploring the beauty of Bali.

Elara is open daily from 11:00 am to 11:00 pm.
