Airport Transfer to The Apurva Kempinski Bali

Fares from DPS Airport to The Apurva Kempinski

Choose your vehicle below — the rate is quoted in USD when you book and does not move afterwards. Toll, airport parking, air-conditioning, bottled water and the arrivals nameboard are all inside the price.

Round trips booked in one conversation save 5% on the combined fare; cancellation is free up to 24 hours before pickup. A $5 supplement applies from 22:00 to 05:00, card payments carry 3%, and an extra stop costs $10. The full fare table for every Bali destination is public, and the booking form takes about two minutes.

Arriving at the Amphitheatre on the Cliff

The Apurva Kempinski is the grand new landmark of the Sawangan coast: a resort designed as a cascading amphitheatre, with the open-air lobby at the top of the cliff and terraces of suites and villas stepping down toward the beach. Road arrivals are delivered to the upper porte-cochère beside that lobby — the moment the car door opens you are looking straight down the terraces to the Indian Ocean, which is one of the better welcome views in Bali.

From DPS your chauffeur crosses the Bali Mandara toll bridge, runs south past Benoa on the bypass, and follows Jalan Raya Nusa Dua Selatan beyond the ITDC enclave to the resort gate at Sawangan. Security runs the routine driveway check used by every property on this coast, then the bell team takes your luggage down through the levels — you will not carry a bag again until check-out.

Make the Arrival Match the Resort

Guests booking the Apurva often upgrade the car to match the occasion: the Toyota Alphard at $215 and the Mercedes V-Class at $275 are the honeymoon favourites, the all-electric Denza D9 at $250 is the silent eco-luxury pick, and the S-Class at $385 turns the transfer into part of the stay. If you want to skip the immigration queue after a long-haul flight, add the fast-track and private driver combo from $95, or fast-track alone at $65 per guest — an escort walks you through the priority lane and straight to the car.

Travelling as a wedding or event group? One WhatsApp message with the guest list is enough; we stagger several vehicles against different flights so everyone reaches the same lobby without anyone waiting at the airport for someone else’s aircraft.

Timing Your Arrival on the Sawangan Coast

The drive south to Sawangan is one of the smoother airport runs in Bali because most of it sits on the Bali Mandara toll road rather than village streets. The one thing worth planning around is the late-afternoon peak, roughly 16:00 to 19:00, when traffic building toward Nusa Dua can push the trip to the upper end of the 30–55 minute range. Morning and midday arrivals usually land closer to 30 minutes. If your flight touches down between 22:00 and 05:00 a $5 night supplement applies, and the driver still meets you at arrivals with a nameboard — the Apurva front desk stays staffed around the clock for late check-ins.

Travelling with children or a long packing list? The Toyota Innova carries four guests with a couple of large cases; families of five or six ride more comfortably in the Hyundai Staria or Toyota Alphard, which swallow a full luggage trolley. Child seats are free on request — send the ages when you book. We can also fold in one stop on the way, a supermarket run or a SIM-card pickup, for the flat $10 extra-stop fee, so you reach the resort with the essentials already sorted.

Because the fare is agreed in writing before you land, there is no meter to watch and no renegotiation at the gate — the figure in your WhatsApp confirmation is the figure you pay, tolls and parking included.
