Bali has no shortage of beautiful resorts, but for our family Blu-Zea Resort By Double Six ticked all the boxes. We were looking for somewhere with interconnecting rooms, a large resort style swimming pool and a central Seminyak location, and this resort looked like it had everything we needed.

We loved having somewhere to relax and unwind between exploring the island. Located in the heart of Seminyak, the resort is within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants and the beach, making it a great base for a family holiday in Bali.

On arrival, we were greeted with the famous Balinese hospitality. There’s always a smile, a warm welcome and nothing ever seems too much trouble. There’s nothing better than getting into your room, freshening up and finally switching into holiday mode!

Superior Interconnecting Rooms

We booked into a Superior Interconnecting Rooms, which was spacious and perfect for our family. Our room had a balcony overlooking the swimming pool, which was a lovely bonus. The perfect spot for an afternoon drink!

Each room had its own key card for access, along with an internal connecting door, giving everyone their own space while still keeping us together. Both rooms also had their own bathroom, each featuring a generous walk in shower.

We had a king bed in our room and the children had twin beds. There is also the option of adding a rollaway bed if you have a larger family.

The rooms are well equipped with everything you need, including a safe, coffee machine, TV and fridge, which is handy for stocking up on your own drinks and snacks.

One of the highlights for the children each day was discovering what towel creation had been left on their beds. From elephants and pigs to swans, it was a little surprise they looked forward to every day!

The Swimming Pool – A Resort Highlight

Are you even staying in Bali if your hotel doesn’t have a swim-up bar?

The swimming pool at Blu-Zea Resort is massive! It’s spread across two levels, with the lower pool featuring a lagoon style design and a beautiful white sandy beach area. This is perfect for younger children as the water isn’t as deep, and there’s even a basketball hoop in the pool to keep them entertained.

The second tier of the pool is where you’ll find the swim-up bar, where you can sip on a cocktail or enjoy a few nibbles without even leaving the water. Now that’s holiday mode!

The pool is also large enough to swim a few laps if you want to keep up with your fitness routine while on holiday. There are plenty of sun lounges dotted around the pool, making it easy to spend the day relaxing in the sunshine before taking a dip to cool off.

It’s safe to say this is where we spent the majority of our time!

Breakfast and Restaurants

Our accommodation included breakfast in the room rate, which was served at The Beach Restaurant, located right beside the swimming pool. The restaurant is open sided with fans to keep you cool while you enjoy your breakfast.

We wandered down each morning for our buffet breakfast, which was served between 7am and 11am. There was a good mix of Western and Asian dishes, along with fresh fruit. Even the fussiest of eaters should be able to find something they enjoy!

In the evenings, The Beach Restaurant also serves dinner, with meals ordered from the menu.

The Suken Pool Bar is another great spot to grab a drink or something to eat throughout the day. They have happy hour at various times, with a buy two get one free offer on selected beers, cocktails and mocktails. There’s also a selection of food available, including club sandwiches, chips and pizza, perfect for a lazy afternoon by the pool.

Attached to the resort is Pallas Greek Taverna, which has a fun atmosphere and is a little different from your usual Bali dining experience. You can even join in with the Greek dancing, making it a fun night out for the whole family!

Resort Facilities

The Spa

The spa feels like stepping into a different world. Located just off the lobby, it’s a peaceful little sanctuary surrounded by lily ponds, a gentle stream and tropical plants.

I treated myself to a full body massage and was pampered from the moment I stepped inside. It was the perfect way to relax and unwind after a day of exploring. My only complaint? I wish the treatment had lasted longer!

Fitness Centre

Located upstairs, the fitness centre has a lovely view while you pump iron! The gym is fully air-conditioned and equipped with all the gear you need for a workout.

I had every intention of using the gym while on holiday, but somehow that never happened. I think I had one too many Bintang beers instead!

Guest Tour & Activities Desk

If you’re looking to explore more of Bali, the resort has a Tour and Activities Desk where you can organise day trips, sightseeing and cultural experiences. It’s handy having someone on hand to help arrange your adventures without having to organise everything yourself.

Location – Exploring Seminyak

As soon as you step outside the resort, you’ll find streets lined with shops, boutiques and restaurants. Compared to some of the busier areas of Bali, we found Seminyak a little more relaxed and easy to explore.

You’ll still be approached by local shopkeepers and street vendors offering their goods, but we found them generally less pushy than in some other parts of Bali.

Seminyak is also home to some lovely upmarket boutiques, with everything from clothing and accessories to homewares. It’s a great place to wander around and do a little shopping.

The beach is just a short walk from the resort, or if you prefer, you can jump on the hotel buggy, which will drop you at the end of the street. The buggy will also take you to the resort’s sister property, Double-Six Luxury Hotel Seminyak.

We headed over there one afternoon to enjoy a sunset drink, and what a spot! Sitting back with a cocktail in hand while watching the sun go down over the ocean is hard to beat.

Along the beachfront, you’ll also find plenty of restaurants and bars where you can enjoy a meal with ocean views. Whether you’re after a casual dinner, a beachside cocktail or something a little more special, the options are endless.

Would We Stay Again?

Absolutely! We had a fantastic stay at Blu-Zea Resort by Double Six and would happily return on our next trip to Bali.

For our family, it ticked all the boxes. The spacious interconnecting rooms gave us plenty of room, the swimming pool was a huge hit (especially the swim-up bar!), and the location made it easy to get out and explore Seminyak.

We loved being able to spend the day relaxing by the pool, wander out for dinner in the evening and enjoy everything Bali has to offer, all without having to travel far.

If you’re looking for family-friendly accommodation in Seminyak with a great pool, comfortable rooms and a convenient location, Blu-Zea Resort is definitely worth considering.
