Kuta Beachwalk is both a modern landmark and a premier leisure destination in Kuta. The mall occupies 3.7 hectares of land and a 250-meter sidewalk near the end of the Jalan Pantai Kuta beach road. This striking complex houses numerous shops, restaurants and entertainment facilities bearing international brands and franchises.
Beachwalk is a first for Bali in terms of design which is to some extent a departure from those of other malls on the island. A multistorey underground parking space for up to a thousand vehicles makes up for this position on one of Bali’s most packed streets. It continues to attract a steady flow of local and international visitors since its opening in mid-2012.
Kuta Beachwalk is an easy stroll from the beach, and stepping into its foyer is a retreat from the coastal heat. Its main building architecture, large ponds and running water features imitate the curves of a paddy field.
The wide central atrium provides natural airflow and ample shade by real gardens. The design also applies eco-friendly measures in its sustainable design, including minimum air-conditioning in open spaces and even a special rainwater collection system.
