Petitenget Beach and the whole Petitenget area in Bali are known for their fabulous beach area, famous beach clubs, most notably Potato Head and Ku De Ta, and their range of high-end, luxurious Bali holiday villas to rent.
Petitenget is part of the Seminyak area and is famous for the 16th-century temple located right on the beach. It stretches from the fringes of Seminyak to the Oberoi area to the north and runs along the main thoroughfare known as Jalan Kayu Aya or Eat Street.
It’s loaded with high-end boutique shops (see Magali Pascal below), its range of fine dining, family-friendly restaurants as well as some great cafes where you can get your smashed avocado bagels, organic smoothie bowls and cafe lattes. It’s also home to some great gyms & yoga studios to help you keep fit and active on holiday and burn those extra kilos you’ve put on. For the ladies, there are also lots of day spas where you can get your nails & hair done, plus get that famous Balinese massage at prices that will blow you away. It’s so much cheaper than back in Australia.
Petitenget is full of exciting things to do, or on the other hand, it’s the ideal place to sit back and relax in the comfort of your own private villa.
If you’re considering renting one of our fabulous 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6-bedroom Petitenget Villas, the following are a few of our favourites. Obviously, we have loads more Seminyak villas to choose from, but these should give you a good idea of what’s waiting for you, your family, or your group to rent.
