4 Hotels with Floating Breakfasts in Bali, A Luxurious Breakfast Experience You Must Try
Wigobali.com – Bali always has a way of offering a unique stay experience. Not only does it feature villas with private pools or breathtaking natural scenery, but the Island of the Gods is also known for one of its most iconic accommodation experiences: the floating breakfast.
This floating breakfast concept first became popular in Bali before being adopted by luxury resorts around the world. It’s no surprise that floating breakfasts have become one of the most sought-after activities for travelers, especially honeymooners, families, and social media content creators.
Unlike a typical hotel breakfast, the food is served on a special tray or basket that floats on the surface of the swimming pool. Enjoying a warm cup of coffee, fresh fruit, pastries, and a main course while soaking in a private pool creates an unforgettable experience.
Some hotels include this facility as part of their accommodation package, while others offer it as an optional add-on that can be booked separately. Some properties even allow non-staying guests to enjoy a floating breakfast with advance reservations.
If you want to try a unique breakfast experience during your vacation in Bali, here are some hotels that offer the best floating breakfast services.
