Traveler Reviews on Bali

Nusa Dua Beach Hotel & Spa

Jan 6, 2009

I and my husband stayed in the hotel for 5 nights starting Dec 18. The hotel is beautifully located with a lovely beach and nice lawns. We stayed in the Palace Club room on the ground floor . On seeing our room, we first requested a room near the pools but the one available did not have a very great... more

Le Meridien Nirwana Golf & Spa Resort

Jan 6, 2009

We stayed just three short days at this magnificient resort! On arrival, we had been upgraded to a Suite! Oh my! It was 77sqm of absolute luxury!! This was our third stay at Le Meridien and each time just gets better! From the moment we arrived until we left, nothing was any bother for the staff. Not that we wanted... more

Novotel Benoa Bali

2 of 5 stars
Shanghai
Jan 5, 2009

We stayed in tropical terrace room in dec'07 for 5 nights. My review might be outdated. improvements might have been done. I just need to spit out what I experienced. We booked through travel agent for a non-smoking room and puzzled to have an ashtray in our room. We were told that rooms by defaults are provided ashtrays. During x'mas... more

Legian Beach Hotel

Jan 5, 2009

We stayed early december in a garden bungalow. Hotel ticked all the boxes in terms of location, rooms, breakfast. However, Legian Beach is pretty crappy, with the water full of plastic rubbish. more

Sanur Beach Hotel Bali

5 of 5 stars
Sydney Australia
Jan 5, 2009

As a family of 4 - 2 adults and 2 teenage boys - we were looking for a reasonably priced hotel on the beach at Sanur. The Sanur Beach Hotel provided us with all the facilities we were looking for - two excellent large pools, good breakfasts, clean rooms with problem free air-con, tv and showers. The only thing we... more

The Laguna Resort & Spa, Nusa Dua, Bali

4 of 5 stars
Seattle
Jan 5, 2009

We spent two nights over New Year's Eve 2008 at the Laguna Resort Nusa Dua. We arrived at the Laguna after having spent 10 nights in the neighboring Westin Nusa Dua. The rooms at the Laguna Resort were certainly nicer and had more of a high-end feel about them, but then we also paid almost double what we had paid... more

Cafe Lotus

1 of 5 stars
Singapore, Singapore
Jan 5, 2009

Was the only customer at Cafe Lotus on a Monday late morning. 3 staff were inattentive and busy chatting among one another - not a good first impression. The waitress who came to 'serve' me dumped the menu onto my sunglasses that was placed on the table without any apology - I doubt she even noticed with her lacklastre attitude.... more

Stana Puri Gopa Hotel

2 of 5 stars
Birmingham, U.K
Jan 5, 2009

Read the reviews on here and decided to try Puri Gopa for three nights. On the plus side, the pool though small is quite attractive and the rooms have nice Balinese designs, also the internet works and you can get to the beach and the street easily. The staff were friendly although a few of the guys working there try... more

Bali Mandira Beach Resort & Spa

Jan 5, 2009

My husband and I stayed at the Mandira from the 26th December to the 2nd January. Overall we really enjoyed our time at the Resort the pools, restaurants, gardens etc are fantastic and for peak season there were plenty of sun lounges to go around. The resort had a mixture of families, couples and retirees staying there. We upgraded to... more

Hu'u Bar and Restaurant

5 of 5 stars
Singapore
Jan 4, 2009

Spent NY'08/9 there and had a whale of a time! The food is excellent, the ambiance great, the staff friendly, the cocktails inviting (try the Master Blaster to blow your head-off;) and it really starts rocking @ 11pm. Great place to start your night out. more

Conrad Bali Resort & Spa

5 of 5 stars
New York City, New York
Jan 4, 2009

Overall, we had an amazing experience at the Conrad Bali resort and would recommend it to anyone traveling to Bali. While at the end of the day everything was top notch, there are two areas that are "important to know" and mentioned in more detail below -- (1) the very high cost of food/drink on-site; and (2) the Club Lounge.... more

Le Meridien Nirwana Golf & Spa Resort

Jan 4, 2009

We were originally going to stay in Nusa Dua the entire trip but later decided to change things up a bit and go up the coast to higher-elevated areas...like Tanah Lot! Glad we did! The Le Meridian is unlike any place we've been to and offered such an amazing experience for our time in Bali. It allowed us to enjoy... more

Room- Not clean enough. no consistency. when we request something, always bring different product or late. Turn down service was a bit annoying. the matress was really uncomfortable. Tele choice was good. Food- Breakfast was... more

Alam Jiwa

5 of 5 stars
Denver, CO, USA
Jan 4, 2009

We stayed in the Angsa room December 28-30th, 2008. The room and bathroom were very nice and the porch (on which the staff will serve you breakfast on request) was exceptional. It was private, lush, and unique. The food was outstanding (particularly the pancakes) and the service second to none. We would stay here again in a minute. more

Parigata Resort and Spa was a lovely way to spend three days in Sanur, Bali. It is just a few steps to a nice beach, and has a beautiful pool and garden. The breakfast was abundant and delicious, teh service was friendly and professional, and we location was great. It is easy walking to many restaurants and shops. The rooms... more

Nusa Dua Beach Hotel & Spa

England, Arkansas
Jan 4, 2009

After a lot of careful research I picked this hotel as the location for our wedding because it was one of the few places I could find where we could get married and see the sea, which was my dream. From the moment I contacted the hotel and booked our wedding and honeymoon ( all done via email) the staff... more

The Bale

Jan 4, 2009

My husband and I splurged on The Bale for our honeymoon and spent 3 nights over the new year here. From the time you arrive, you feel like you're in paradise. The design of The Bale is minimalistic and modern. I love the simple design of the rooms, and yet they have attap roofs to retain some Balinese feel. The... more

I went to Nuri's a few hours ago, and this this my 4th & final night on Ubud. Having seen many reviews of Nuri's and heard from the staff at Komaneka Resort that this is a popular joint, I told myself I must try it before I fly back to Singapore! and so here it goes.. 1. Seating: FIND YOUR... more
