I had an excellent stay at your hotel. Will visit there again!
Pros:

The rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable. Staffs are super accommodating and were available anytime of day even at night, if we have any queries or what. The room is spacious and instagrammable-worthy. 🫣

It also helps a lot that they’ve arranged pick-up and drop-off from the hotel to the town-square (and vice-versa).

They have a lot of options for breakfast—with rice and non-rice. Coffee, tea, or canned fruit juice are also offered for breakfast.

Cons:

Maybe just improve your WiFi connection because it’s really weak especially when we’re inside our room.

Beautiful views and rooms, but both of us became ill after eating in the restaurant
Pros:

The room was beautiful and the view from the balcony was amazing.

Cons:

The journey to the hotel was really quite scary as it had been pouring with rain all morning and the narrow track over the sand and then along a dirt track was flooded. On arrival we loved what we saw. Unfortunately on our first night (after having dinner in the restaurant) I became extremely ill (bacterial infection) and had to call the doctor out to me. The staff were very kind and helpful during this time, I spent 2 full days in bed. On our last night we went down to the restaurant again (as I couldn’t go on a tricycle due to being unwell) I only had a banana but my husband had a chicken dish. That night he became very unwell and we were flying the next day! When we arrived in Bali he ended up in hospital on an IV with lots of medication to take. It took us both about 2 weeks to recover and really put a dampener on our holiday.
I can’t say for sure that we both became ill from the restaurant but I think the odds are very high.
We regularly travel to Indonesia and are very careful about hygiene and cleaning teeth with bottled water etc.

Pros:

La habitaciones que son amplias y el desayuno también estaba rico lo peor la hubicacion que dispones de tuk tuk gratuito,pero es una odisea el camino.Eso si si quieres tranquilidad es perfecto el hotel apartado de todo el ambiente del nido.

Cons:

Ubicación

C’était incroyable. L’équipe est top
Pros:

La navette gratuite pour rejoindre le centre-ville est un plus et la vue du restaurant est vraiment incroyable.
Nous avons loger dans une petite hutte et c’était très romantique

Cons:

La literie n’était pas très confortable (surmatelas) et la douche s’écouler avec énormément de difficulté ce qui faisait qu’on avait les pied mouillés longtemps dans la salle de bain, ce qui rendait le sol pas très propre au fur et à mesure des aller-retour
