Well, the first thing to consider about this hotel is it one of the few remaining Traditional Balinese style hotels. This will mean that there are some things that are not to everyone's liking. We on the other hand loved it, comfortable, well priced and placed, great staff and beautiful grounds.
Other Guests we met varied from 10yr veterans who used this place every visit to first timers like us. Nobody had a bad word to say and were more than happy, greeting each day with healthy smiles and appetites'.
Would I stay here again, the answer is yes, now I know my way around better, but I would also like to be closer to my family there, so it is a hard trade off.
There are many higher rated hotels in Bali, I guess it depends on what you want to do when you are there. We used this as a home plate for going out and return to, but later my wife and her son went off for three days Island hopping and I just enjoyed the peace and quiet, a swim. a drink and whatever else I felt like doing.
I did mention quiet in my list of choices, that is subjective. Balinese youth like to have loud exhaust on their bikes and there would be particular times you might hear them, so noise can be something else. The other type of quiet is serenity in a beautiful garden, lounging or floating in the pool. You can tune out the sounds of the bikes.
This was my first trip to Bali, it is also the first time I have had a holiday being able to physically and mentally rest since I joined the Army in 1981.
