AYANA Introduces A Dual-Island Family Escape from Bali to Komodo This July

AYANA Introduces A Dual-Island Family Escape from Bali to Komodo This July

From Bali's coastal clifftop to the protected waters of Komodo National Park, AYANA presents a school holiday journey shaped by contrast, diversity, and outdoor adventures.

This July school holiday season, AYANA invites families to experience Indonesia through two distinct destinations. The journey begins along Bali's southwest coast, where the expansive grounds of AYANA Bali, the island's largest integrated resort, offer unmatched variety and ease. From here, a short flight to Flores leads to AYANA Komodo Waecicu Beach, where guests are immersed in one of the country's most extraordinary natural environments.

Set across 90 hectares of gardens and clifftop coastline in Jimbaran, away from the island's more congested areas, AYANA Bali comprises four hotels, 31 dining venues, 14 swimming pools, and a wide range of facilities designed for families. Its scale and well-connected layout make it particularly suited to family travel, with frequent trams enabling easy movement across the resort.

For children, a series of themed play environments encourages interaction with Bali's natural surroundings. At the recently opened RIMBA Jungle Adventure, indoor and outdoor spaces are shaped around movement, imagination, and exploration. Sproutroots focuses on open-air play, with climbing structures and a zipline set beside a pool with waterslides. Lumincave offers a quieter indoor setting for younger children, while Whisperwood introduces storytelling and nature-based activities. Meanwhile, AYANA Ocean Adventure, connected to a kids pool, combines water play with a marine-inspired setting.

Families seeking more structured experiences can take part in dedicated programmes tailored to different age groups. The Guidepost Montessori Children's Adventure Camp introduces children aged 3 to 6 to hands-on, self-directed learning, while Green Camp AYANA engages children aged 7 to 12 through outdoor activities designed to build confidence and environmental awareness.

Beyond these programs, the two-hectare AYANA Farm offers families the opportunity to explore Bali's agricultural traditions and the resort's sustainability practices through guided walks and interactive sessions. Cultural experiences are equally woven into the stay, from traditional music and dance performances at the open-air theatre and dining venue Kampoeng Bali, to visits to the internationally acclaimed SAKA Museum, where guests can engage more deeply with the island's rich living heritage.

This unparalleled range and integration, along with childcare services, allow parents to step in and out of the day as they choose, whether that means joining in or taking time to enjoy the world-renowned AYANA Spa, the secluded beach, or the resort's enticing dining options.

The Connected Family Stay package is available from now until 31 March 2027 with a minimum three-night stay. The package includes connecting rooms with secure internal access, round-trip airport transfers, and resort credit of up to IDR 1,200,000, alongside a family poolside lunch and a one-hour Thalassotherapy session for parents. Additional benefits include savings on spa treatments and F&B at the iconic Rock Bar.

Less than an hour's flight from Bali, the journey continues at AYANA Komodo Waecicu Beach, where the setting shifts to the rugged landscape of Flores. Positioned at the gateway to the UNESCO-listed Komodo National Park, the resort offers direct access to one of Indonesia's most extraordinary natural environments.

Here, the focus turns to exploration within a protected, biodiverse region shaped by rugged islands, clear waters, and thriving marine ecosystems. Guided excursions take families to Komodo Island, as well as the iconic ridgelines of Padar Island and the blush shoreline of Pink Beach. Offshore, coral reefs support a rich diversity of marine life, with snorkelling revealing vast schools of reef fish and, at times, manta rays.

Activities are designed to connect guests with the environment, from guided island-hopping journeys to marine experiences, all supported by experienced guides and a strong emphasis on responsible exploration. At the resort, this continues through its recently upgraded Marine Discovery Center and conservation-led programmes, where families can gain insight into coral reef ecosystems, while KISIK Seafood & Grill introduces the flavors, music, and traditions of Flores through a beachfront cultural barbecue set against the sunset over Waecicu Bay.

Families can take advantage of a seasonal offer at AYANA Komodo, available for bookings up until 27 September 2026 on stays from 1 June to 30 September 2026, with a minimum three-night stay. The package includes daily breakfast, shared airport transfers, a glass-bottom boat experience, and for suite guests, complimentary use of kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and snorkelling equipment, alongside savings on spa, dining, and selected water activities.

Together, AYANA Bali and AYANA Komodo Waecicu Beach offer an accessible family journey across two distinct landscapes, resulting in a school holiday shaped by contrast, exploration, and time spent outdoors.
