I wanted to like Alindra a whole lot more than I did. The grounds are gorgeous, the staff friendly (though they put us in the wrong—nicer—room upon arrival and only when we went to lock the door did we realize the error and we had to move), and it provides easy access to Ngurah Rai airport. The “ethnic” rooms look amazing from the exterior, and the pool room we were initially in was great, but the Terracotta room we’d booked featured an odd mix of furniture and it just was not as clean as I would have liked. It appeared that no one had swept under the bed in some time, and there was debris elsewhere in the room, nor did we have a sufficient number of towels for the three of us. I’d say it was a fine place to spend a night, but there are much nicer places to spend in transit. Breakfast brought to our terrace was nice, and the food was decent, but I’ll pick another place if I go back to Jimbaran.
