When I arrived at Telu, a recently opened zero-waste cocktail bar at the Four Seasons Resort Bali at Jimbaran Bay, I expected something that looked a bit more, well, new.
Instead, Telu was tucked away in an open-air garden courtyard overflowing with lush, mature greenery and home to several rustic, pavilion-style structures. Underneath one of the larger pavilions, a softly-lit main bar area decorated with vintage elements — think antique mirrors and weathered wood accents — served as the venue’s centerpiece. Instead of feeling like a shiny, freshly constructed addition, Telu felt like it could have existed at the Four Seasons Resort Bali at Jimbaran Bay for ages.
