The Verdict
Worth it for your honeymoon?
The Edge is the cliff-clinging villa collective in Uluwatu whose eponymous pool — a glass-bottomed infinity pool cantilevered 150 meters above the ocean — became one of Instagram's most-recognizable honeymoon shots. Ten private villas, each with its own infinity pool, staff team and dedicated chef. It is, essentially, a collection of private cliff-top estates, not a hotel, and the privacy-per-dollar ratio is unmatched. Choose it for the splurge anniversary-in-honeymoon-form.

Room Recommendation
Which room to book
The Oceans Edge Villa (the flagship) gives you the glass-floor pool. If that's booked, Edge One and Edge Two are the next most dramatic, with equally cantilevered private infinity pools directly over the ocean.

Honest Assessment
What to know before you book
The Edge is villa-only — no common pool, no lobby, no hotel lounge. Some couples love the privacy; others miss the social atmosphere of a traditional resort.
Ocean below is dramatic but inaccessible directly — the cliff is sheer. Beach access is a shuttle ride to Nyang Nyang or nearby Uluwatu beaches.
Strong winds and exposure can mean the cantilevered pool's glass floor gets closed for safety on gusty days.
