Bali All-Inclusive Escape — 5 Nights at Merusaka Nusa Dua

Settle into the 5-star Merusaka Nusa Dua for five nights of genuine all-inclusive living on Bali's southern coast — where breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks and a couples' massage are all arranged before you land. From the welcome drink onwards, dining is unlimited: daily buffet breakfast for two at Gading All Day Dining Restaurant, then a la carte lunch and dinner at any of the resort's four restaurants, as often as you like.

Drinks flow just as freely — non-alcoholic from 7am to 11pm and alcoholic from 11am to 11pm at any outlet (selected premium brands aside), plus a daily minibar in your room with two Singaraja Beers, a Sprite and a Coke. Afternoons are built around the ocean-view Bar Lounge, with sweets, cookies and savoury bites from 3pm to 5:30pm, followed by free-flow cocktails and canapés from 5:30pm to 7pm as the light softens over the water. Once during your stay, you and your travel partner each unwind with a 60-minute Balinese massage at The Spa by Merusaka, with 20% off any further treatments.

Days fill themselves in easily. There's beach access, an outdoor pool, a poolside bar, a fitness area you're free to use, and a daily schedule of resort activities from yoga and ping pong to pool and beach games and chess. Families are well covered too, with complimentary access to Tamaya Kids Land for ages 5 to 11.99. Choose from Deluxe Rooms designed around the Seven Balinese Goddesses, Deluxe Pool Access rooms with a balcony leading straight to a communal pool, a One Bedroom Ocean Suite overlooking the three-tiered infinity pool with the Indian Ocean beyond, or a One Bedroom Villa for a quieter, more romantic stay.
