One of the World’s 30 Best Hotel Bars
One of my colleagues recommended The Rock Bar Bali to me. Since he found out I was going to Bali, he has been encouraging me to visit this beautiful place. I am so grateful that he shared his Bali secrets with us.
The AYANA Resort & Spa in Jimbaran,
Entry to the Rock Bar is by passing through beautiful grounds of Ayana Resort & Spa Jimbaran. This hotel will impress you to the hilt! We took a long time to walk from the Rock Bar to the lobby because we stopped so many times to take pictures of the grounds! The next time I return to Bali, THE would be the resort that I’d like to stay in!
The resort is located on the South Western coast of Bali. The resort features multiple levels of infinity pools with breathtaking views over the high-cliff coastline. There are many details only Bali luxurious resorts can provide. These include waterfalls, comfortable and cozy Balinese beds, ponds surrounding restaurants, statues that spout water, beautiful pagodas, and cascades down stone walls.
As you walk towards the Rock Bar, you will pass through an incredible landscape. You’ll feel the adrenaline and excitement as you get closer to what you know is going to be a stunning site.
Why You Should Visit the Ayana Rock Bar
You will be walking to a gate as soon as you enter the Ayana Bar. It seems to open onto the sky and ocean beyond. You’re sure to be intrigued as you try and figure out where this gate is leading.
You won’t know what you are in for until you get to the front! The entrance is not the gate to heaven but the entrance to the specially-designed inclinator Cable Car which glides you to the lower level where the Ayana Resort Rock Bar, and its surrounding area are located. This makes the entrance even more majestic, and leaves you feeling like royalty.

You will see the bar below as you descend in the cable car! It might even make you gasp, and I can assure you that it increased my excitement when we were descending.
You will find that when you reach ground level you can see the Rock Bar Bali as well as beautiful landscapes on the left and right. You will see some viewing platforms to your left, as well as a beautiful jetty that is in the distance. On this level, you will also find a Sea Salt resort swimming pool.
You will find a large expanse of beautiful landscape to the right of Bali Rock Bar. This area is full of large eroded stones that are typical of Jimbaran Bay. This view is amazing and I took more photos than I can admit of the water crashing on the rocks at different times of the day and night,
