As year-end travel returns to Bali’s peak rhythm, resorts across the island begin setting their festive calendars. Among them, Jumeirah Bali—located on the cliffs of Uluwatu and designed with architectural cues from the Majapahit era—has released a month-long program centered heavily on food and beverage experiences. The resort’s two main dining venues, Segaran Dining Terrace and AKASA Restaurant & Bar, anchor the celebrations, offering a mix of holiday buffets, themed dinners, regional Indonesian menus, and New Year’s Eve events with live entertainment.
Segaran Dining Terrace: MediterrAsian Buffets and Family-Friendly Experiences
Segaran Dining Terrace, the resort’s ocean-facing MediterrAsian restaurant, leads the Christmas programming. The Christmas Eve buffet on 24 December presents seasonal dishes alongside a kids’ corner and live entertainment, while Christmas Day brings both lunch and dinner services featuring holiday selections in Segaran’s coastal setting.
Beyond holiday-specific menus, Segaran runs several recurring festive-season offerings. These include the Megibung Feast, inspired by Balinese communal dining, and Taste of Nusantara on Fridays, highlighting regional Indonesian dishes accompanied by traditional Balinese performances. The Dreamland Seafood BBQ, available daily, adds a grilled seafood-focused option for guests seeking lighter or more casual holiday dining.
AKASA Restaurant & Bar: Christmas Specials from the Cliffside Grill
AKASA Restaurant & Bar—known for its open-flame cooking and elevated cliffside ambiance—offers an à la carte Christmas Eve and Christmas Day dinner menu from 17:30 to 22:30. Festive dishes are paired with live musical performances, while Santa’s visit on Christmas Day adds a family-oriented touch
Festive Warm-Up and Jazz Night
The New Year lineup begins on 27 December with an à la carte menu at AKASA, followed by Jazz Night by the Garden on 28 December, held at Trowulan. The evening features a barbecue buffet, live jazz, and a night-market atmosphere, marking the transition between Christmas and New Year celebrations.
New Year’s Eve at Segaran and AKASA
On 31 December, Segaran hosts a festive buffet dinner framed by ocean views, while AKASA presents a multi-course New Year’s Eve set menu, with optional wine or champagne pairing. Both venues feature live entertainment leading up to the midnight fireworks display overlooking the Uluwatu coastline.
