"Loved our stay at Bali! Comfortable bed, beautiful room and staff were very nice. Totally unassuming from the front how nice this place is. Used the beachfront umbrella/chairs and the guy was super friendly. Breakfast was a little lacking, but it was nice to get coffee in the AMs. We never heard neighbors through the walls, but the courtyard music is a touch loud until it goes off at ~9pm. We never encountered any issues regarding water shortages either, which was a major pleasant surprise. Overall I highly recommend. We rented a car and they have free onsite parking. Didn’t get to try the restaurant onsite but it looks beautiful."
