We have been coming here for 11 years now but not again. Still charging top dollar to stay here but very run down. Reception staff very hard to understand and they just answer “yes” to everything. Restaurant staff amazing, amazing explaining our tour and that we should have arrived an hour earlier for our meal that is included in the tour but we could come after tour. Time on receipt was 7pm and we arrived at 6.30pm. Night Safari was delayed because a large group arrived and we had to wait. We were put on 1 truck then asked to leave that truck and wait for the next. That felt so wrong. Many disappointments with the hotel and the park. My list could go on but we will not return. Guessing 2 less people will not make a difference but it will to us

Something very different and highly recommended.

Pros: Friendly staff, amazing views from hotel room. Lots to do and see. The dining experience alone is incredible with the lions watching on.
Cons: The room was not cheap by Bali standards and we understand you are paying for the experience, but there was a number of activities not included in the
We had a wonderful long weekend at this amazing place. Very relaxing with lots of activities to fill your days and nights. Friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended, an experience of a lifetime.

Worst breakfast in Bali!

Enjoyed our night. Family room right by pool but could not see the animals from our room. Rates are expensive and I would have expected entry to the park to be included in the price. Elephant ride to breakfast was a highlight.
