Four Seasons Resort Bali at Jimbaran Bay

The Four Seasons at Jimbaran Bay is the classic Bali honeymoon resort that quietly turns out to be brilliant with children. Its all-villa layout gives every family a private garden and pool, and the Umah Rare kids club, meaning house of children, runs a full daily programme from crab hunting to kite making, free of charge. There is a dedicated baby pool just 30 cm deep and a kids pool at 60 cm, so even the smallest paddlers have somewhere safe. It is a serious splurge, but the privacy, the service and the perks for young children make it one of the most stress-free luxury choices on the island.
Our verdict
The luxury family benchmark: a private villa and pool for every family, a free kids club and purpose-built baby pools.
The rooms
This is a resort of private villas, not rooms, and that changes everything with children. Each of the 147 Balinese villas has its own walled garden and plunge pool, so bath time, naps and toddler meltdowns all happen behind your own gate. One, two and three-bedroom layouts scale from a couple with a baby to three generations together, and family villas sit steps from the playground and pools. Cots and babysitting are complimentary, children under twelve stay free and under-fives eat free, which softens the sting of the price.

Parents also ask
Do children really stay and eat free?
Children under twelve stay free sharing with parents, under-fives eat free, and the kids club and babysitting are complimentary, though confirm the current terms at booking.
Is every villa really private?
Yes, all 147 villas have a walled garden and their own plunge pool, which is a huge advantage for naps, bath times and toddler meltdowns.
Is the layout hard with a buggy?
It is built on a hillside, so there are slopes and steps, but buggies run a constant shuttle and villas near the pools cut down the climbing.

The Mulia, Mulia Resort & Villas
Everything here is oversized, and that works in a family's favour. Even entry-level suites run to 130 sqm with a separate living area and space for two adults and two children under twelve, so no one is climbing over a suitcase. Ocean-facing suites put the calm Geger Beach lagoon a lift ride away, and the villas add private pools and multiple bedrooms for larger groups. Cots come free on request, and the sheer size of the rooms makes early bedtimes and toddler naps far less of a battle.

Grand Hyatt Bali
Set in a village of Balinese-style low-rise blocks around tropical gardens, the Grand Hyatt has room types that suit every family shape. Standard rooms take a cot easily, and the connecting rooms and themed family suites are the pick with two or more children: the ocean-themed kids room comes with shell-shaped twin beds and its own mermaid bathroom, joined to a parents' room next door. Ground-floor garden rooms cut out the stairs with a buggy, and the calm lagoon beach is a short stroll through the gardens.

Padma Resort Legian
Padma Legian is built around families, with a dedicated family block and rooms sized for real trips. The Premier Double Double gives one bedroom two queen beds and a bathtub, ideal for toddlers and young children, while suites step up to two bedrooms and Presidential units add three bedrooms with a private pool. Kids stay free in existing bedding on many rates, cots are provided, and the family rooms sit close to the waterslide pool and the Wolly Kids Club so nap-time dashes are short.
