At the heart of this push is the Sanur Health Special Economic Zone (SEZ), a new development located on Bali’s southeastern coast. The area spans more than 41 ha and is designed to become Indonesia’s first integrated health tourism destination.

The centerpiece of the development is the Bali International Hospital, the only hospital within the SEZ.

Covering more than 67,000 sq.m, the hospital provides specialist services in cardiology, oncology, neurology, gastroenterology, hepatology and orthopedics through partnerships with partners from Australia, Japan and Singapore.

There will also be two landmark hotels, namely the historic Bali Beach Hotel, the island’s first five-star property opened in 1966, and the Meru Sanur Hotel, a five-star resort.
