Gibt die Note 'ausreichend': neue Anlage gewesen, aber haben die Räumlichkeiten nicht optimal genutzt bzw. ausgebaut. Klimaanlage kühlt nicht richtig, bei 30 Grad und schwülem Wetter nicht so praktisch. Viel zu klein um die cottages zu versorgen, war sehr sehr laut, so dass man dauerbeschallt wurde als würde man neben einer Turbine stehen. Habe an der Rezeption mich zweimal beschwert und auch schon den Manager einmal am Telephon gehabt. haben mir versichert jemanden zu schicken um es zu reparieren, aber in den drei Tagen dort ist nichts passiert und keiner hat Anstalten gemacht uns nochmals zu fragen ob alles in Ordnung ist oder nicht. Sehr enttäuschend! Würde das keinem empfehlen, wenn er nichts dagegen hat bei 30 Grad und mit Oropax zu schlafen.

リーズナブル

チャンディダサの中心街の端にあり、徒歩で町中に行けるので便利です。ホテルが海岸と接しているのですが、それほど広いスペースがあるわけではありません。 部屋はコテージタイプで広かったですが、運が悪かったのかエアコンの効きが悪かったです。 たまたま宿泊した日が大晦日でガラディナーをお願いしました。夕食は普通でしたが、ライブや民族舞踊もあり、また時々波打ち際に行ったり、またスタッフはとても親切でゆっくりした時間を過ごすことができました。 ただ、お手軽リゾートという印象で新婚旅行には向かないと思います。

Hit återkommer vi gärna

Ett mycket trevligt och välskött hotel, där all personal vi var i kontakt med pratade okej engelska. I området (gångavstånd) finns massor av resturanger. Poolen var bra och det gick att bada från en trappa i havet. Mycket solstolar och solbäddar så man kunde komma ner när som och ändå få välja. Vi skulle lätt kunna tänka oss att bo här igen, okej frukost och bra med flygplatstransport osv. (som ingår).

Hotel super, Umgebung weniger!

Sehr schöne Hotelanlage, insbesondere Essens- und Poolbereich (das Meer sieht zwar sehr schön aus und gibt eine gute Stimmung, eignet sich allerdings nicht zum Baden). Die Bungalows sind sauber und schön eingerichtet. Candi Dasa an sich gibt nicht viel her, immerhin aber ein paar schöne Restaurants/Bars in unmittelbarer Nähe des Hotels. Roller kann man für 60'000 Rp. pro Tag mieten.

Für 2 Nächte war der Aufenthalt super. Der kleine, künstliche Strand lädt zum verweilen ein. Viele Restaurants in der Umgebung. Frühstück war ok, allerdings einfach und kalt. Auf Nachfrage bekommt man aber frisch zubereitetes. Spa war gemäß meiner Freundin ebenfalls gut ung günstig. Das Zimmer hat leider etwas modrig gerochen, ansonsten aber sehr gut.

Magnifique séjour

Nous avons passé un magnifique séjour de 9 nuits. L'hôtel se trouve un peu à l'écart de la route principale, donc au calme. Les cottages sont très spacieux, la salle de bains immense et le service impeccable. La piscine est belle, la plage reconstituée surplombe la mer et quelques marches d'escaliers vous mènent dans l'eau pour la baignade. Il y a des chaises longues en suffisance car l'hôtel est de taille modeste. Le restaurant sert des plats variés à des prix raisonnables. Le village de Candidasa se situe le long de la route principale, à 200m de l'hôtel et compte de nombreux restaurants et boutiques. Nous reviendrons certainement...
