The Regent brand has expanded its impressive luxury portfolio to the shores of Canggu Beach in Bali, with the highly anticipated opening of Regent Bali Canggu. Nestled on Bali’s coveted southwestern coast, this resort marks the first Regent Hotels & Resorts opening in Indonesia since IHG Hotels & Resorts’ acquisition of the brand in 2018.

Spaces rooted in Bali’s spirit
A fresh interpretation of the Balinese tropical experience, Wimberly, Allison, Tong, and Goo (WATG) have designed the 14-acre resort to harmonize with Bali’s geography and cultural heritage. The use of timber and andesite stone across the low-rise development pays homage to Bali’s abundant resources, leaving a lasting impression of Balinese architectural significance by blending the island’s rich charm with redefined modern luxury.
Interior design firm Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA) have created the resort’s aesthetic with natural colors, textiles and intricate craftsmanship. The interiors celebrate Indonesia’s diversity through the integration of batik and Balinese imagery, all within a curated color palette that reflects the ethereal beauty of the island. Landscape architect John Pettigrew has harmonized the resort’s architecture with its natural surroundings, using local plants and reclaimed materials to create gardens that soften the building’s geometric lines.
An oasis of gastronomy
Regent Bali Canggu features five distinctive dining venues. The signature restaurant, Taru, showcases authentic Indonesian dishes such as rendang sapi and udang bakar woku, inviting guests to savor the rich flavors of the region. Sazón, led by award-winning Chef Andrew Walsh, is a Spanish hideaway on Batu Bolong, where guests can enjoy authentic tapas and reinvented Spanish classics. Standout dishes include the squid-ink-based paella, arroz negro, and the octopus and potato espuma entrée, perfectly paired with a sophisticated selection of Sherry and Cava wines. Cure, set to open later in 2025, will present a modern European menu infused with Asian influences, celebrating the abundant produce of Indonesia.
“Sazón and Cure are very close to my heart and hospitality ambitions,” said Chef Andrew Walsh. "Our Spanish neighborhood tapas bar and grill, Sazón, draws inspiration from the lively streets of Barcelona, reimagined with the vibrant spirit and boundless energy of Canggu. Cure, opening later this year on the beachfront, will present my signature refined modern European cuisine infused with influences from my journey through Asia. Rooted in the Latin meaning of "to take care," Cure embodies life's finest pleasures: exceptional food, wine, culture, and tradition.”
