The guesthouse is simple and comfort. The breakfast tasty also got my husband and I on to the ferry, seemlessly.

Staying at the
Emana Akatara hotel was truly wonderful.
The room was so spacious, beautiful and clean and very relaxing.
The pool area was relaxing and wonderful - and right next to the bar, so you can easily order drinks and snacks.
However was really sets the hotel apart
from anywhere else is the FANTASTIC staff, who all wanted to make sure you have the best time and made me feel so welcome. They are the most lovely young people I’ve meet in a very long time. They really represent Balinese...

Swastiastu!
Everything was top notch - the food, the people, the hospitality and the ambience. The spa was superb and the daily Balinese activities a fun way to learn some culture. The live performances especially were a standout. The whole resort is a mesh between traditional Balinese design with batiks, the Ramayana love story, and contemporary elements.
We recommend wholeheartedly without hesitation.

Absolutle gem of a hotel. We stopped in a villa and it was so luxurious walking straight out into the pool. Even the building works next door didnt impact our stay. From the moment we were picked up at Padangbai harbour, the staff were freindly and attentive. A welcome drink, very tasty food, breakfadt in villa at no extra charge and a shuttle to the local beach. All fantastic. 100% recommend.

Tanah Gajah was by far the most relaxing vacation my wife and I have ever had. From our villa with infiti pool looking on to the rice paddies to the private walled accomodation, the extensive beautifully designed gardens, wonderful food by chef Dean, everything superb!
Staff couldn’t do enough and everyone, from ground staff to housekeeping to management should be proud of your customer services, a truly fantastic experience, my wife and I can’t wait to come back.

We stayed in a one bed villa with a private pool, the villa itself was beautiful and spacious, the veranda and the private pool area have wonderful views, perfect at any time of day.
The complimentary mini bar, breakfast and afternoon tea were all wonderful, there was a great selection at breakfast and the staff looked after us very well, making sure that we had enough. The afternoon tea contained different sandwiches and cakes every day for our 5 days.
I will return as soon as possible.

This hotel is total paradise. The staff are extraordinarily friendly and helpful.
Happy hour at the hotel bar was great (try the lime daiquiri) and the breakfast was delicious. I recommend the waffles!
We had a garden suite and our room was beautiful, fantastic attention to detail and we would leave our room for 10 mins and come back and someone would have already been in to make the bed and change towels etc!

This was our first visit to Bali and we were not sure what to expect. For an extra fee, the hotel arranged our transfer and the driver was waiting at the airport on our arrival. The hotel is on one of the main streets leading into Ubud centre and during our stay the street frontage was under construction. Our first impression was one of dismay, but once off the street the Sapodilla is a welcoming oasis of green and calm. We stayed in one of the garden suites which was comfortable and clean with...

The staff were utterly exceptional at Adiawana Monkey Forest. From the communication before my arrival on arranging a hotel pick up, to every element of my stay I was made to feel so welcome and attended to. The spa treatments were perfect and the hotel arranged trips and activities for me which were second to none and were based on my individual requirements and brief.

We spent 4 days here. If you want privacy, this is the place to come - you have your own villa (with walled garden, deck and plunge pool), the "room" service is great. You'll have your breakfast on your deck (monkey situation permitting) or inside the villa. Talking about monkeys - the name "Monkey Forest" is not there for marketing only. The monkeys are regular visitors - at one afternoon we counted 16 of them in our garden - it was a bit scary, but a call to the front desk took care of them,...

We stayed for 3 nights in mid-October during a 12 day Bali holiday and this was by far the nicest of the 4 hotels we stayed in. The staff were wonderfully helpful and the hotel had a lovely peaceful air to it. Situated parallel to the main Monkey Forest road it's about a 10 min walk to get to the Ubud hustle and bustle (a regular shuttle bus is provided too), but from an unassuming entrance you enter an oasis on the edge of the forest.

This place has one of the best private pool villa for the given price. Although the road to the property is very poor and there is nothing scenic outside but inside the property it's like being in a beautiful rainforest.
Food:The restaurant service is amazing with a breakfast with limited options but better in taste and quality than any other breakfast buffets of a 5 star property. You must try their breakfast burrito and rice noodles, they were one of the best.

New hotel with high quality rooms - lots of space and beds and towels especially luxurious. Perhaps could have chairs on the balcony to also enjoy that space. Helpful and friendly staff plus the French manager is also present and she shows genuine interest in your experiences at the hotel. Central location in Sanur - close to beach, plus a range of restaurants and bars.We also borrowed bikes from the hotel (free of charge) - a great way to see the whole length of Sanur along the beachside path....

We loved our 4 night stay at Maya Ubud! The hotel is secluded, in the middle of the jungle, and has 2 amazing infinity pools. The staff is super nice and helpful. Great spa in an incredible setting with very good treatments. The rooms are average though and the condition of the furniture not great.
