One of the hippest areas in Southern Bali is undoubtedly the energetic town of Seminyak. Home to hundreds of expatriates involved in commerce, the well-urbanised extension of Kuta and Legian attracts a cosmopolitan mix of travellers from around the globe. Due to the vast influx of foreigners adopting Seminyak as their newfound home, the township has developed into an upmarket must-see, must-experience location. Its nearness to white sandy Seminyak Beach, along with trendy boutiques of an international standard and the eclectic variety of local and intercontinental restaurants, allows a large number of tastes and preferences to be quenched.
Although Seminyak might seem very un-Balinese at first glance, the resort is quite authentic. Villagers remain vividly present, assembling religious offerings, attending 'banjar' meetings and holding temple festivals. The bustling town is a dream destination for food aficionados and fervent partygoers as it features well-known hot spots such as Kudeta, La Lucciola, Hu'u Bar, The Living Room, Mozaic, Double Six, Obsesion, Dejavu and many more. A visit to the Friday Market is highly recommended to those who enjoy tasty snacks that suit individual health and pocket.
Seminyak is treasured for its excitingly funky nightlife, yet deluxe resorts and villas have noticeably mushroomed over the last decade or so. Many sumptuous villas are hidden on narrow roads from the main street towards the quiescent village life. Seminyak is no less cherished, however, as a shopping haven. Unlike most stretches of shops in Kuta, Seminyak boutiques display extensive selections of intricate designs, funky styles and atypical products that frequently reflect the island's distinctive culture. From local to international designer clothing, to jewellery created with the most sought after gems, to lifestyle products and furniture... Seminyak truly has it all.
