Imagine it: a challenging 18 holes on a perfectly manicured, world class course, surrounded by tropical flowers and with views of the Indian Ocean. This is the golfer’s dream, and in Nusa Dua, it’s a reality.
But the truly golfer’s perfect day in Nusa Dua doesn’t end when you sink the final putt on the 18th green. It concludes with the ultimate “19th hole”—a therapeutic recovery session to soothe the body and cap off a day of true indulgence. This guide outlines the perfect, balanced itinerary for golf enthusiasts visiting Bali.
The Morning (8 AM – 1 PM): The Main Event
Your day begins at the Bali National Golf Club. This is the crown jewel of golf in the region, an award winning 18 hole course that offers a stunning and challenging experience for all skill levels. You’ll play through immaculate fairways, navigate beautiful but tricky hazards, and enjoy a serene, tropical atmosphere that makes playing here so special.
The Afternoon (2 PM onwards): The Essential Recovery
A four to five hour round of golf, especially in the warm Balinese climate, is demanding. Your back is stiff from the rotational swing, your shoulders are tight from the effort, and your feet are tired from walking the course.
Instead of just heading back to the hotel pool and letting the stiffness set in, the “perfect day” itinerary involves dedicating the afternoon to active, physical recovery. A professional post game massage is the ideal way to unwind, prevent soreness, and make the most of your holiday.
A Sample “Perfect Day” Itinerary
- 8:00 AM: Arrive at Bali National, check in, and hit the driving range.
- 9:00 AM: Tee off for your 18 hole round.
- 1:30 PM: Finish your round, enjoy a cold drink and light lunch at the clubhouse.
- 2:45 PM: Arrive at your spa for your pre booked “Post Game Recovery.”
Your Recovery Destination: Royal Orchid Spa
This is the smart choice. Why pay five star hotel spa prices when you can get an authentic, high quality treatment for a fraction of the cost? Royal Orchid Spa is conveniently located in Nusa Dua, just a short drive from the golf club.
