It’s Bali like you’ve never seen it before — and it’s officially opening to tourists this year.

Nuanu Creative City is located in Nyanyi, roughly 30 minutes from Canggu and one hour from Ngurah Rai International Airport.

Since its soft launch in July last year, 500,000 people visited the 44 hectare space which boasts luxury, culture and innovation.

Nuanu’s chief executive Lev Kroll described it as a one-of-a-kind destination that will no doubt be high on Aussies’ bucket lists when visiting Bali in 2025.

It has spaces dedicated to education, wellness, entertainment, with everything else in the creative destination part of an integrated ecosystem.

Spanning 44 hectares of pristine coastline, Nuanu Creative City is just 30 minutes from Canggu and one hour from Ngurah Rai International Airport.

“Now we are able to (officially) welcome travellers and show what we are creating – it would be unwise to travel to Bali and not visit Nuanu,” Mr Kroll told news.com.au.

He said the massive space is filled with 32 transformative projects, including the luxurious Oshom Hotel, the incredibly unique Luna Beach Club with its spiral bamboo canopy and Bali’s only outdoor multimedia park Aurora Media Park.

“Luna is the first place we opened,” Mr Kroll said, saying the sensory beach club has been a huge hit.

It has five dining concepts, two pools and features immersive art installations by Daniel Popper – a multidisciplinary artist known for his enigmatic artworks.

Other highlights in the creative city include the THK Tower, an alpaca farm and Lumeira Spa, featuring the world’s largest dome-shaped wood-fired sauna.

“Nuanu is like an amusement park for adults,” Mr Kroll said, adding that it pays homage to the Balinese and Indonesian culture, integrating, art, nature and technology.

Sergey Solonin, a Russian entrepreneur and founder of Nuanu, searched places in Thailand and Hawaii to build Nuanu, before eventually settling on Bali.

He spent four years building this “wonderland” for visitors who want to “feel like a kid” once more.

“When we become adults, we’re not surprised anymore. I’m trying to get to this sweet spot, this feeling (at Nuanu) that you’re like ‘wow’ where you’re surprised by different architecture or art,” he recently told news.com.au.

He said he has always found peace of mind in Bali, explaining the island also holds a unique allure that “resonates with our values and vision for Nuanu”.

“Its rich cultural heritage, breathtaking natural beauty, and vibrant artistic community make it an ideal location to build a creative city,” he told luxury lifestyle magazine, A Plus Singapore.

Nuanu comes from the Balinese word “Nu-anu” meaning “in the process” – which Mr Kroll said is a fitting description of the city as they are always experimenting and pushing boundaries.
