Restaurant Isla Bali

Restaurant Isla Bali is Benidorm’s first restaurant dedicated to authentic Indonesian cuisine, located in the quiet Rincón de Loix area, just a short walk from Levante Beach. Rather than adapting Indonesian recipes to European tastes, the restaurant focuses on traditional family recipes, imported spices and classic dishes from across the Indonesian archipelago.

The warm décor, attentive service and emphasis on authentic cooking make Isla Bali stand out from the city’s many international restaurants. Whether you’re already familiar with Indonesian food or trying it for the first time, it offers a genuinely different dining experience in Benidorm.

WHY IT’S GREAT FOR DIGITAL NOMADS

✔ One of the few authentic Indonesian restaurants on the Costa Blanca
✔ Relaxed atmosphere away from the busiest tourist streets
✔ Excellent choice for an evening meal after work
✔ Vegetarian options available
✔ Ideal for sharing dishes with friends or colleagues

WHAT TO EXPECT

Indonesian cuisine is known for its rich flavours, aromatic spices and variety of dishes, and Isla Bali embraces that tradition. Signature dishes include Rendang, Babi Guling, Sate Ayam, Gado Gado, Opor Ayam, and several authentic fish and seafood specialities.

One of the highlights is the traditional Rice Table (Rijsttafel), designed for sharing and offering a selection of different dishes served together, making it an excellent introduction to Indonesian cooking.

The menu also caters for different dietary preferences, with vegetarian dishes and a clear allergen guide. Desserts include Indonesian favourites such as Spekkoek (layer cake), Pisang Goreng (fried banana with ice cream) and refreshing coconut-based treats.

For digital nomads and long-stay visitors, Isla Bali is a welcome alternative when you’re looking for something beyond the usual Mediterranean, Italian or British restaurants that dominate much of Benidorm’s dining scene.
