The Indonesia Luxury Hotel Cluster

Indonesia's luxury hotel geography is structurally Bali-anchored — the working primary cluster is Bali (the Ubud-and-Seminyak-and-Nusa-Dua hotel cluster), with smaller clusters in Lombok (the Gili Islands), Komodo (the Komodo National Park dive-luxury cluster), and the Sumba-and-Flores island alternatives. The Java mainland (Jakarta, Yogyakarta) holds a smaller urban-and-heritage cluster.

The Indonesian luxury hotel cluster is anchored by the structural Aman cluster (Amanjiwo Java, Amandari Bali, Amankila Bali, Amanusa Bali, Amanwana Moyo Island), the Four Seasons cluster (Sayan, Jimbaran Bay), the COMO cluster (Uma Ubud, Uma Canggu), the Mandapa-Ritz-Carlton-Reserve flagship, the Six Senses Uluwatu, the Capella Ubud (the Bill-Bensley-designed tented camp), and the structurally distinct independent-Bali boutique cluster.

Editors organise the Indonesian luxury hotel guide by working register — choose Bali Ubud for the working jungle-rice-paddy luxury cluster, Bali Seminyak-and-Canggu for the working beach-club register, Bali Nusa-Dua for the working family-resort cluster, Lombok-and-the-Gilis for the working alternative-island cluster, Komodo for the working dive-luxury, and the Java mainland for the working urban-and-heritage anchor.
