Citadines Berawa Beach Bali Resort is located on Pemelisan Agung street in the Tibubeneng area, north of Kuta, near Berawa beach, one of the liveliest spots in Bali. In the evenings, people gather by the ocean to watch the sunsets, surf, and enjoy beach clubs, while the area is quiet in the mornings. The hotel’s most memorable feature is its rooftop, which houses an infinity pool, a bar, and a spa: as evening approaches and the sky over the ocean turns orange and pink, guests head up from their rooms specifically for that photo opportunity. The complex has 223 rooms, two outdoor pools, a gym, a restaurant, and a playground. Staying here is suitable for couples, groups of friends, and families who want to combine the beach with good food and evening bars without worrying about taxis.
Berawa: Beaches, Clubs, and Sunset
Berawa lies near Canggu, where surfers and lovers of beach bars gather, and it’s crowded in the evenings. The hotel is located on Pemelisan Agung street, and the walk to the sea takes only a short time. Nearby are bars and clubs such as Atlas and Finns Recreation Club, spas like Luh Arum Spa and Ame Spa, Berawa Green Park, and Pura Segara Peranacak temple. From Ngurah Rai Airport it’s about 46 minutes by car according to the hotel, but traffic in Canggu can add time, especially during rush hour.
- Berawa Beach — sand, surfing, sunsets by the water.
- Atlas and Finns — oceanfront clubs, an evening with music.
- Luh Arum Spa and Ame Spa — massages near the hotel.
- Pura Segara Peranacak temple — a quiet Balinese temple by the sea.
Travel tip: The rainy season in Bali runs roughly from November to March, while the dry season is from April to October. During the dry months, the sunset from the rooftop is clearest, but traffic jams in Canggu are also longer. If peace and quiet are important to you, check with the hotel which rooms don’t face the rooftop where live music plays in the evenings.
Rooftop, Pools, and Spa
The main set of amenities is gathered around water: two outdoor pools, including a rooftop pool overlooking the ocean, sun loungers, umbrellas, towels, and a poolside bar. There’s also a spa with massages and facial treatments, a restaurant, a lobby bar, a gym, and a playground. For guests arriving by car there’s parking and valet service, and for everyone else—currency exchange, luggage storage, laundry services, and a concierge desk. A surfing school is separately mentioned for those who want to learn to surf.

Breakfast and Dinner on the Rooftop
The hotel serves breakfast buffet style, and guests appreciate the variety of menu options, including vegetarian dishes. This is convenient if you’re traveling with people who don’t eat meat. In the mornings, a quiet crowd usually comes to the rooftop pool, rather than the evening revelers.
For dinner, you can choose between the hotel restaurant or the poolside bar: cocktails, light meals, live music, and an ocean view. And if you want something different, Berawa offers plenty of options within walking distance.
