The Conrad Bali is a luxury beachfront resort on Bali’s southern coast that offers stunning views of the Indian Ocean. Guests will find everything they need at the property, including 3 restaurants, a poolside bar, lagoon-style swimming pools, a spa, a gym, and over 1,100 feet of a beautiful beach.
While Hilton now uses variable award pricing, if you’re flexible with your travel dates, you might be able to score award nights for as low as 35,000 points per night, meaning the welcome bonus alone will get you 3 free nights at the property.
