The Seminyak hotel reopens with new decks, gardens and a 30-metre pool.

Just in time for the summer high season, The Legian has reopened after four months of sprucing and enhancing the finer points of the high-end Seminyak hotel.

Most ideas for the make-over came directly from the guest feedback book, and the first guests to arrive after the 68-room property reopened on June 25 had the chance to enjoy the new 30-metre infinity lap pool and beachfront sun deck, freshly landscaped gardens, improved lighting in half of the guest rooms and upgraded views of the spectacular Indian Ocean from its three-bedroom private Beach House.

Essential elements of the resort experience— natural light, easy airflow, prime ocean views and inviting green spaces—were all refreshed in The Legian’s most extensive facelift since its opening in 1996.

“In the past half-year we have taken a near-perfect property and, with layers of subtleties (and one grand swimming pool), made it that much better,” said Kevin J. Abramowicz, the resort’s new general manager. “Our guests love The Legian’s design, but they wanted more light, so we gave it to them.”

Guests also wanted a space to enjoy sundowners, so the resort laid down a deck; they wanted to do laps, so the resort built a gorgeous infinity pool right above the sands. “We listened to guest comments when planning the improvements,” said Kevin.

In the first of two stages of renovations, workers took tools to half of The Legian’s guest rooms. They fixed the plumbing for better temperature control, they recalibrated the air circulation system in the bedroom, and they installed new lighting on the terrace.

The resort’s exclusive Beach House was the recipient of a new 20-square metre terrace with sunbeds accessible from the master bedroom, which was rearranged for better ocean views. More windows were created to allow Bali’s tropical rays into the guest rooms and bathrooms, while the living room was opened up with two walls of transparent folding doors giving guests the option to enjoy 180-degree panoramic views whether relaxing in the sea breeze or air-conditioned comfort.

The Legian Bali right on Seminyak beach just became that much better.
