I don’t really know what to say because I think you’ll either have a great experience at this hotel or a very disappointing one depending on which room you are assigned. Unfortunately, ours was the latter, although we tried to make the best of it because the location itself is beautiful.
Our room was the very last room at the very top of the hotel situated on a cliff. The number of stairs is honestly unbelievable and isn’t made clear when booking. My Apple Watch recorded an average of 27 flights of stairs a day over our 10-night stay. In the Greek heat, even popping back to the room because you’d forgotten something became exhausting. I can only imagine how difficult this would be for anyone with mobility issues. If I’d known about the number of stairs beforehand, and the price of the stay reflected those circumstances, I could have made an informed decision. The hotel really needs to advertise this more clearly so guests know what they’re signing up for.
Our air conditioning didn’t work properly. We reported it to reception and were told someone would come and fix it, but no one ever did. We also had times where there was no running water in our room. Reporting issues became frustrating because it meant climbing all the way down to reception and then back up again.
The food was okay but lacked variety over a 10-night stay.
Having to pay extra for beach sunbeds was disappointing, especially as the rules weren’t applied consistently. Some people were charged while others weren’t. On top of that, people who hadn’t paid would lay their towels on the sand right next to the paid sunbeds, meaning we couldn’t move our beds or enjoy the space we’d paid for.
One thing I found concerning was that water regularly flowed from the hotel grounds down towards the sea. I don’t know exactly what the source of the water was, but it created an unpleasant swamp-like smell on the beach. The beach also didn’t appear to be maintained very well, with litter left behind and the sunbeds often not being rearranged.
Housekeeping was another let-down. The bed was made daily and the floor was swept, but the toilet wasn’t cleaned once during our stay. I ended up finding the cleaning supplies and cleaning it myself because it had become unhygienic. Our towels were only changed once in 10 nights.
The hotel has a lot of potential. With some renovations, better maintenance and clearer communication about the room access, it could be a much better place to stay.
The positives are that Bali is absolutely stunning, with incredible views, beautiful beaches and genuinely lovely people. Sadly, the hotel itself didn’t live up to expectations, and I wouldn’t return.
I came from the Czech Republic for a week. I read the reviews before coming, and they were very mixed. Overall, we really liked everything and we will come back here again. We will also recommend this hotel to our friends, as the price and quality are reasonable.
The food is good, and there are local products and dishes that are much tastier than the ones imported to the Czech Republic. There is direct access to the sea. The staff is also very friendly and helpful, which made our stay even more pleasant.
The only thing we would recommend changing for the hotel is to include the cost of beach sunbeds in the price.
Overall, we are satisfied and we recommend this hotel.
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and honestly enjoyed everything. The room was beautiful and comfortable, and the view from the room was amazing. The food was also excellent, with plenty of delicious options.
But what really made our stay special were Vaggelia and Thalia. They are truly the gems of this hotel — so kind, welcoming, and attentive. They made us feel genuinely cared for and added such a warm and personal touch to our stay.
We really enjoyed every moment and would definitely love to come back. Highly recommended! ❤️
The hotel is very good despite some of the negative reviews we read before our trip. We stayed here for one week on an all-inclusive basis and really enjoyed our stay. The local food was excellent, with plenty of tasty options to choose from. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help.
The only downside was that the sunbeds on the beach are not included and have to be paid for separately.
Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely like to come back again in the future.
We came here for vacation and have very nice view, nice service, very good people on reception. Very comfortable to get to different 3 beaches, infrastructure is very good. You can find rooms on every taste. We recommend this hotel very much to have a good rest and relax:)
