Ulu Shanti Chapel at The Royal Santrian
Beachfront wedding pavilion, Tanjung Benoa
Ulu Shanti is the wedding pavilion at The Royal Santrian in Tanjung Benoa, on the Nusa Dua coast. It is a white, glass-fronted chapel set in a beachfront garden of palms, with a short aisle facing the Indian Ocean and its own preparation room for the couple. Unlike the Uluwatu cliff chapels, this one sits level with the sea, so the water and the sand are right there and the walk to the ceremony is flat and easy.
The setting keeps the whole day in one place. The pavilion seats around 30 for the ceremony, and the oceanfront Ocean Garden lawn beside it hosts receptions for up to 100, so guests move straight from the vows to dinner without leaving the beachfront. The Royal Santrian’s villas sit around the gardens, which gives the wedding party somewhere to stay and get ready on site.
We treat Ulu Shanti as a match for couples who want a beachfront ceremony with a real pavilion and a resort behind it, rather than a clifftop. Ceremonies are sold as packages priced per event, so the figure depends on your guest count and inclusions. We reconfirm current rates, capacity, and the matching reception setup with The Royal Santrian for your date.

Why we love it
On the sand, not on a cliff
Ulu Shanti sits in a beachfront garden at Tanjung Benoa, level with the sea rather than high on a cliff. The pavilion opens to the Indian Ocean and the beach, which suits couples who want the water close and the walk to the ceremony flat and easy.
A dedicated glass pavilion
This is a purpose-built white, glass-fronted chapel with a short aisle and its own preparation room for the couple, set among exotic palms. It gives a proper ceremony structure rather than a bare garden arch.
Ceremony and reception in one place
The oceanfront Ocean Garden lawn beside the pavilion hosts receptions for up to 100, so the ceremony flows straight into dinner without moving guests off site. The Royal Santrian's villas sit around it for the wedding party.
