About The Royal Purnama
Perched on the cliffs above Bali's southern coastline, The Royal Purnama looks straight out over the Indian Ocean, with the water crashing against black volcanic rock below the ceremony lawn.
The property sits on Pantai Purnama in Sukawati, Gianyar, giving couples an open, uninterrupted horizon line for both sunrise and sunset ceremonies.
Rooms and pavilions are arranged so the ocean stays visible from most vantage points on the grounds.
