I loved the place and it was beautiful. I was quite unhappy with the massage therapist... I had a great massage with her and pre-paid her for a friend to have one-hour. I accidentally left my fit bit at the massage table. When I went back to get it the manager led me to her down at the water... I discovered she sent someone else to do the massage for my friend, and that woman had my fit bit in her purse. Bait and switch - I feel like the 2nd massage person was planning to take my watch, my friend was very disappointed with the massage and cut it short and the therapist I paid (and tipped handsomely) never came clean... very disappointing !!!

We stayed here for our last 2 nights in Bali and it was such a gem of a place! We hadn't pre-booked our trip so found this place the night before we were traveling from Ubud to Amed. The expedia ratings were good and it seemed close to the snorkeling locations we wanted to visit. Check in was quick and east. We had a private villa with a walking path right to the beach with a perfect snorkeling spot. We watched the sunrise over the ocean each morning. The buffet breakfast was very tasty (the coffee and banana pancakes were my favorite!) and had a water fill station in the restaurant and in the lobby. The restaurant is right on the beach and we watched the fishing boats come in each morning while having breakfast. The dinner options were many and they had the best noodles (goreng) of all the places we went during out week in Bali. LOVED the open air bathroom and the visits by the little geckos. The gardens and pool were gorgeous and well maintained. This was the perfect place to end our week of adventures in Bali!

Honeymoon trip to Bali
Great location right at Lipah beach. rey good service and attentive staff. The first nightt a fuse blew. Upon investigation it was noted that a pipe with water dripping from it was dripping onto the fuse switches. Once the pipe was redirected, they were able to reset the fuse.

Overall good, but some things need to be improved
We have stayed here for 4 nights. Like: The big and clean room with opened bathroom, beautiful green territory with nice pool, great place for snorkeling. Dislike: very poor breakfast (no any kind of meat like sausages or bacon), lack of hot water power, no sunbeds on the beach, attempt to charge me for the stay on check-out while I already have paid it with hotels.com

An Old Favourite
We'd originally headed over to Tejekula to find a beach the Sunday Times had just listed as part of its top 20. Didn't find any decent beaches so decided to head to Coral View at Amed - a place we've visited many times. I love its location, right next to the beach, where you can swim and snorkel safely. The gardens are lovely and the vibe relaxed, with a great massage available from the local women. Bread and a variety of other dishes are prepared on the premises. One of m favourite places in Bali

Rustic charm with modern amenities
Coral View Villas is an ideal place to stay if you are diving in Amed and want somewhere convenient and comfortable to stay. It is next door to the professional Eurodive and there are several good, inexpensive local restaurants within a short walk. You can snorkel from the beach or hire a boat as well. We chose a garden suite, which was spacious and clean, with a terrace. If we stay again I think it would be worth paying a bit more for one of the 2 storey beachfront villas. staff were very helpful and breakfast was varied and good quality.

Best snorkeling on the doorstep,charming room
Great experience to visit a different part of Bali. The snorkelling was great which is what we went for. Just one minute from door to entering water with gear! Better snorkelling here than Jemeluk or Banyuning. Coral view Villas was beautiful, lovely room. Loved the outdoor bathroom, large sun beds on the verandah and a great pool a few steps away. Gardens lovely and well kept. Bed only a double and a bit hard, but made up by four poster charm and mosquito net. All that we expected and more for very reasonablely priced budget accomodation.

Nice hotel. A surprising little oasis.
We did a self drive tour around Bali. We stayed at the Coral View Villas at Lipah Beach from July 5 to 7. Sunshine! Good food at the restaurant. Excellent snorkelling right off the beach. Much better then the snorkelling we saw when we signed up for snorkel tours. If you're taking your own flippers, do take a pair of booties to wear in the flippers. Prevents coral sand from scratching your feet. The pool is small, but refreshing and clean. The garden grounds were kept immaculately. Our group of 5, hired 2 villas. Spacious clean rooms. The bathrooms were also big and clean. They were open air above, but very private. I wondered if the weather might cause issues using these open air bathrooms. A couple of nights there was a lot of wind, but it didn't seem to affect the bathroom. When we arrived, we had some issues with our car. One of the staff, Made, went above and beyond the call of duty to help us fix this problem. We couldn't thank him enough. The restaurant had good food. The BBQ smoked pork ribs are a must. The satay chicken is served with dramatic flare. The goat floss was addictive. Excellent banana fritters and pancakes. Excellent fresh juices. Homemade breads. We liked it so much, we went back for a second stay from July 10 to 12. Thank you again to Made and the rest of the staff. We have such fond memories of your villas. We did try to telephone before we left Bali, and emailing you direct when we got home, but we couldn't get through. We lost keys in Villa27.

Basics are fine, but service needs lifting
The rooms are mostly fine and the location is good - being on the beach and near enough to other restaurants and cafes. It is the small things that have let this experience down. Small things like: a less than warm welcome at reception; serving gin and tonic as a cocktail and not adding a slice of lemon; a broken door handle that could easily be fixed; untidy breakfast self-serve area despite two-three staff being present; coffeee cups ordered for outside room at midday and dirty cups and saucers still there the next morning; pool water cloudy. This could be a great place, but management needs to lift its game and ensure proper service standards. The secret of being 'laid-back' s not that everyone is relaxed, but that the staff works hard to ensure that the customer feels 'laid-back'.

Unrealized Potential!
Reservation was for a deluxe room. At check in, the room was super small and had no real lock on the door. Since I had some electronic equipment, and other valuables, I had to insist that I be switched to a room with a functional door lock. The upgraded room was fine. No Televisions in any of the rooms. The wifi connections was intermittent. Overall the grounds were nice. The restaurant is ok. The menu is very limited. The restaurant staff is great though. They offer a free breakfast buffet but it is really basic. They play music from the 70's, 80's & some 90's but it gets tired quickly. The beach area is almost non existent. If you walk down about 100 meters or so you'll see a slightly better beach area but all in all. . . this area is known to be a desired location for scuba divers & snorkelers but I can't imagine any others enjoying it. We actually booked the resort for 6 days but checked out after 3 days.It was worth incurring the loss. At check out. . .we watched 2 women before us have problems processing payments through the hotels credit card processing system. Every attempt failed. When I went to settle my bill, the same result. Card declined. Note: My cards are NEVER declined. They asked us to go down the road to their sister hotel to see if their machine would take the payment. It processed in about 30 seconds. Payment accepted. . . we were out of there. All in All. . . terrible experience. The resort has real potential but it needs to get it's act together.

If you use this hotel just for sleeping a travel around Amed, then it's ok. But there is nothing too special or impressive to say about the hotel. Don't be afraid to spend a night or two here though, it's ok ;)

Relaxing place to stay by the beach
Coral View Villas is a wonderful place to stay if you are in Lipah (Amed). The staff at the hotel and the restaurant are very friendly and helpful. The on-site restaurant serves pretty tasty food. We stayed in a one-story bungalow and it had a nice patio out front with a table, loungers, and a hammock. The open-air bathroom is spacious. They provide a safe, mini-fridge, and a mosquito net. We had a fantastic time at Coral View Villas and I look forward to staying there again.

Favorite hotel among several during a week's vacation in Bali. Beautiful grounds next to beach, very nice swimming pool, good restaurant, very pleasant staff. Best easy access snorkeling I have encountered anywhere. Scenic views of Lombok's Mt. Rinjani and a beach full of Balinese outrigger canoes.

A wonderful peaceful stay @ Coral View
The hotel is clean, comfortable and staff were approachable and responded to all questions promptly and with a smile. Gardens maintained immaculately with daily cleaning & trimming being done. The buildings and grounds were being maintained whilst we were there but with minimal interference to our stay - ie. they were re-roofing some of the bungalows so hammering could be heard but not so much that it affected us / insect spray of neighbouring building being done - staff advised us so that we could move off verandah to ensure we did not get accidentally sprayed. Hawkers do roam the beachfront to sell their services but this is Bali ! They were not rude or pushy and accepted our polite no thank you's readily. The breakfast is limited with very little choice and not much change. Due to the limited breakfast we did not feel inclined to eat dinner there so can not comment. Snorkeling is just off the beach which is well protected from surf or currents so very easy to do.

Great hotel, service, staff and location.
My stay at Coral View Villas was excellent. It is my second visit and I specifically went back there because the place impressed me so much the first time. The hotel is very clean and well manicured. The grounds are impeccable. The pool is a perfect temperature. The on-site restaurant has a nice variety on the menu and the location is one of the best in Amed as it's one of the few places actually located on the ocean where there is actually a sandy beach that you can walk on and snorkel and throw down a towel on sand to get sun. The bathrooms are fantastic. They each have both a shower and bath tub. The air conditioning is good and there is a little fridge for you to put food and drinks. Overall, I highly recommend the place. The staff arranged a motorbike on the spot for me to use during my stay and the staff is not at all intrusive. I barely noticed them but they were always quick to oblige when I needed something.

Great Place
We stayed only one night at Coral View Villas. Our Villa was just off the pool and near the restaurant. It was lovely, especially the bathroom. The gardens are beautiful and very well maintained. We ate at the restaurant and the meals were delicious, prepared by Chef Liam. Liam also runs the restaurant next door at their sister property, Hidden Paradise Cottages, a great Tapas Menu. I would certainly recommend staying here. Worth the drive to escape the hustle and bustle of Seminyak and surrounding areas. Would love to revisit, only next time stay longer.

Gartenanlage schln, etwas abseits von Amed
Die schöne Gartenanlage, die freistehenden geräumigen Bungalows sind top. Auch zum schnorcheln direkt vor drm Hotel ist es super! Bei uns hat der Aussenbereich mit WC, Dusche und Lavabo immer sehr gestunken, wie bei einer Kläranlage. Das Frühstück war etwas lieblos gestaltet und die Hygiene im Esssaal entspricht nicht europäischem Standart. Da werden die verfleckten, schmutzigen Tischtücher nach dem Gast lediglich etwas abgestaubt. Aber uns hat es sonst gut gefallen!

Fantastische locatie. Voor de derde keer hier geweest. Mooi snorkelen voor de deur. Mooie omgeving. Wel zijn er inmiddels wat dingen aan vervanging toe of moet er worden schoon gemaakt. Bv de koelkasten in het restaurant zijn aan vervanging toe. Matrassen in de huisjes zijn aan vervanging toe. En het zwembad laten tegeltjes los en mag de zwembad rand beter worden schoongemaakt tussen de voegen. Lig kussens op de zwembad bedjes zou ook fijn zijn. Het zijn kleine dingen.
