The resort combines three-tiered swimming pools, family facilities, extensive dining, spa and fitness options with direct access to Mengiat Beach.

How far is the nearest beach?

MERUSAKA Nusa Dua sits directly on Mengiat Beach, so the sand is reached from the resort grounds without transport or a separate journey. The beach itself is public, while the resort provides sun loungers for guests along its section of the shoreline. Nusa Dua’s protected coastal setting is known for relatively calm water, making the beachfront practical for relaxed swimming, family beach time and easy movement between the sea, pools and resort facilities.

Distance from Airport

Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) is approximately 13 to 14 km by road from MERUSAKA Nusa Dua. A direct road transfer usually takes around 20 to 25 minutes, although traffic in southern Bali can extend the journey at busier times. No domestic connection or boat transfer is required, and the resort can arrange private airport transfers, keeping arrival straightforward after the international journey from South Africa.
