Kuta Square

Why Kuta Square is special ?

The Matahari Kuta Square department store, boasting a hypermarket and fashion stores within, shares the same locality with an assortment of surf wear retail outlets, franchise restaurants, ice cream and fresh juice parlours, and local jewellers on both sides of the avenue.

Kuta Square starts at the Kuta Art Market, straight ahead north from Jalan Kartika Plaza and is a right turn from the one-way Jalan Bakung Sari. Those coming in from Legian and heading south towards Kartika Plaza also go through Kuta Square. This two-way option between Legian and Kuta makes it a strategic and often navigated route, thus the intermittently busy traffic.

What to explore at Kuta Square?

The Matahari Kuta Square shopping mall on the eastern side of the avenue is the largest building in the vicinity. On the western side, the Inna Kuta Beach Hotel divides Kuta Square and Kuta Beach.
